Traditional Chinese medicine believes that female friends will damage their kidney yin after long-term fatigue, surgery, serious illness, etc. Therefore, when female friends have kidney yin deficiency and insufficient qi and blood, the menstrual volume will become less and the color will become darker. Female friends should supplement their bodies with sufficient nutrition to promote blood circulation in their bodies, activate qi and blood, take meridians as the basis, activate internal organs, and use qi and blood, which can improve irregular menstruation.

The dark menstrual flow of female friends is usually caused by qi stagnation and blood stasis. For example, the menstruation is irregular, the amount of menstruation is more or less, the color is black or purple, there are blood clots, and the menstruation is not smooth. Sometimes there will be lower abdominal pain that is resistant to pressure, chest and flank pain, breast pain, abdominal distension and discomfort, purple tongue or petechiae, thin white or thin yellow tongue coating, and stringy or astringent pulse. It should promote blood circulation, remove blood stasis, regulate qi and relieve pain.

It may also be due to deficiency of both Qi and blood, which leads to dark menstrual color, early or late menstrual cycle, increased or decreased menstrual volume, prolonged menstrual period, thin menstrual quality, lower abdominal pain, and sometimes dizziness, fatigue, and pale or sallow face. If this happens, you should replenish both your Qi and blood.

Menstrual irregularities may be caused by organic diseases or drugs. Such as local inflammation of the reproductive organs, tumors and developmental abnormalities, malnutrition, intracranial diseases, and other endocrine dysfunctions such as thyroid and adrenal cortex dysfunction, diabetes, Sheehan's disease, liver disease, blood diseases, etc. If you use drugs to treat mental illnesses, take intrauterine devices for contraception, or endocrine preparations, you may experience symptoms of irregular menstruation.
