Dark menstrual blood may be a sign of gynecological disease

Adult women have their period every month, which is also what we often call menstruation. The amount of menstrual blood can reflect women’s health problems, and the color of menstrual blood can also remind female friends that gynecological diseases are approaching you.

Health during menstruation is always a topic of great concern to female friends. Generally speaking, the color of menstrual blood of healthy mature women is mostly dark red, slightly sticky, non-coagulated, alkaline, and blood clots occasionally appear. This is because in addition to blood, women's menstruation also contains a small amount of cervical mucus, vaginal epithelial cells, and fragments of endometrial shedding, so some of the above situations are normal phenomena during menstruation.

However, women's menstruation is easily affected by external factors, such as sudden increase in mental stress, environmental changes or improper menstrual care, resulting in irregular menstruation, excessive menstrual bleeding, menstruation that is too thin or too thick, or even dark or purple menstrual color. These are all manifestations of abnormal menstruation. Once menstruation becomes abnormal, it means that there are certain problems with the woman's body, and it may even be caused by certain gynecological diseases.

The main reasons for dark menstrual blood include the following aspects, such as long-term malnutrition, environmental changes, excessive mental stress, improper menstrual care, cold body invasion, etc. It may also be due to diseases of the uterus and ovaries that cause dark menstrual blood. No matter what the cause is, it is best for female friends to go to the hospital in time to find out the cause and treat it accordingly.

So in daily life, how should women adjust to avoid the phenomenon of dark menstrual blood? First of all, you must maintain a happy spirit and try to avoid too much emotional fluctuations. Secondly, you should pay attention to nutritional intake in your life, and pay special attention to hygiene during menstruation. In addition, women's bodies are weaker during menstruation and bacteria are more easily invaded, so they should pay attention to protecting their bodies from cold attacks and avoid excessive fatigue. Only by paying attention to the small details in life can we prevent the occurrence of gynecological diseases.
