Why is my period black at the beginning?

Why is the menstrual blood gray and black at the beginning of the menstrual period? This means that the menstrual blood is deposited in the uterine cavity and is not discharged smoothly, causing the menstrual blood to accumulate in the uterine cavity, turning into old blood and turning black in color. It is best recommended to boil brown sugar and ginger water when you have your period, and drink it while it is hot. It can not only replenish blood and qi, but also dispel cold and warm the uterus, which will make menstrual blood discharge more smoothly, so that the color of menstruation will have a certain change.

In addition, if the color of menstrual blood turns dark, the possibility of endometrial inflammation should also be ruled out. If necessary, a diagnostic curettage can be performed between the 6th and 12th hours of menstruation to eliminate inflammation of the uterine wall, and treatment can be given based on the results.

What if my menstrual period is black?

On the first day of the menstrual period and the last day of the menstrual period, the color of the menstrual blood is dark during this period. This situation does not require any treatment. It is a physiological phenomenon. On the first day of the menstrual period, because the uterine wall has just shed, the shedding area is relatively small, so the blood will be relatively less, and this situation is normal. There are also times when the menstrual period is about to end, because the uterine wall has no longer shed, the wound at the shed site has been closed, and the wound is slowly healing. During this period of time, the blood will be less, and this situation does not require any treatment.

If the color of menstruation is darker at other times, this situation needs treatment. It is mostly caused by qi deficiency, blood stasis or dampness and cold stagnation. In such a situation, it is recommended to see a Chinese medicine doctor, take some Chinese herbal medicines that can promote qi and blood circulation, promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, soothe the liver and relieve anger, and coordinate with moxa, including acupuncture therapy, the effect may be more obvious.

Why is the first day of menstruation black?

Many women have black menstrual blood on the first day of their period. This is normal and has a lot to do with the small amount of menstrual flow on the first day of menstruation. If it recovers on the second day, there is no need to worry. If the color of menstrual blood continues to turn darker, it is likely that there is an abnormality in the human body, such as qi deficiency and blood stasis, liver depression and qi stagnation, or cold stagnation and blood stasis. These conditions can cause women's belt meridians to be blocked, resulting in symptoms of dark menstruation, and the possibility of gynecological inflammation or uterine fibroids cannot be ruled out. If you want to know if further examination is needed, you can go to the hospital for color Doppler ultrasound. There is a certain relationship between women's dark menstrual discharge and diet. If you eat cold food before or during menstruation, it is easy to cause less menstrual flow and darker menstrual discharge.
