Why is menstrual blood bright red?

Menstruation is like a barometer, constantly reminding us of various diseases and conditions in our body. If there is a problem with menstruation, it also means that there are various conditions in our body. Different colors of menstruation reflect different symptoms. So why is menstrual blood bright red?

For women of childbearing age, menstruation is like a "barometer" that observes changes inside the body. The menstrual period usually lasts for 3 to 7 days, with a menstrual blood volume of about 30 to 80 ml. The blood is dark red in color, with no blood clots or only very small blood clots. When you suffer from a serious illness, a major change in your living environment, or a major mental blow, especially when you have a gynecological disease, the first symptom is often a disorder of the menstrual cycle. You cannot neglect it at this time.

If the blood is bright red and contains large clots of blood, it is menorrhagia, which is often an abnormal signal and indicates that there is some disease in the body. Similarly, scanty menstruation is also an abnormal phenomenon and you should go to the hospital for a comprehensive examination as soon as possible to prevent it from developing into amenorrhea.

If a small amount of vaginal bleeding occurs between the 12th and 16th day after menstruation, it is ovulation bleeding. When ovulation bleeding occurs, you need to ask your doctor to rule out some gynecological diseases, such as menstrual disorders, cervical erosion, cervical polyps, cervical cancer, endometrial polyps, submucous uterine fibroids and endometrial cancer. If it occurs frequently and the amount of bleeding is heavy, seek medical treatment as soon as possible.

The above are the main reasons for bright red menstrual blood, and what is going on. The expected amount is different at different times, and the color of menstruation is also different. However, if the menstruation is black, this may be a state of cold body. Bright red menstrual blood is normal in a certain period, but if blood clots appear, you need to go to the hospital for examination in time.
