What causes darkening of the vaginal discharge during late menstruation?

Nowadays, many girls will have dark menstrual blood in the later stages of menstruation, but they are embarrassed to say it out loud, so they don’t want to go to the hospital to see a doctor. This will lead to many girls paying less and less attention to the reasons for dark menstrual blood, and this is not good for the body. It often causes gynecological diseases. So today let’s talk about why menstrual blood turns black.

1. Dark menstrual color caused by irregular menstruation: Many women often experience excessive or insufficient menstrual blood, early or delayed menstrual cycle, or dark or red menstrual color before each menstruation. These are specific manifestations of irregular menstruation, which are often caused by various common gynecological diseases. In particular, dark menstrual color is often caused by gynecological diseases such as vaginitis or cervical erosion, which requires a comprehensive gynecological examination and professional symptomatic treatment.

2. Dark menstrual color caused by improper care: Many women have dark menstrual color, some of them smoke and drink during menstruation, some do strenuous exercise, some continue to have sex without restraint, some take a bath during menstruation, and some stay up late and overwork during menstruation. These women who do not pay attention to menstrual care during menstruation often cause abnormal menstrual color and dark menstrual color.

3. Dark menstrual color caused by qi stagnation and blood stasis: From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, dark menstrual color is often a manifestation of qi stagnation and blood stasis, resulting in excessive or insufficient blood loss, abnormal color, black blood clots, and often accompanied by abdominal pain. Treatment requires promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis, regulating qi and relieving pain. In addition, kidney deficiency often causes women's menstrual blood to be dark in color.
