Menstruation is light, dark and lasts for a long time

Menstruation is very important for women, but in daily life, many women have irregular menstruation. Irregular menstruation has many effects on women. For example, some women have very little menstrual flow and the color is black. We should pay attention to this phenomenon. Let's take a look at what is going on with little and dark menstruation for a long time?

What is the reason for less and darker menstruation and longer duration?

Dark menstrual blood is a sign of abnormal menstruation and may be caused by some gynecological inflammation. Generally, this situation occurs because the black menstrual blood is caused by qi stagnation and blood stasis, and the menstrual blood has been stagnant in the uterus for a long time. Oligomenorrhea refers to less menstrual volume than normal people during menstruation, which is mostly caused by blood deficiency, qi stagnation, blood stasis, cold stagnation in the blood, phlegm obstruction and other reasons. Small amount of menstrual blood is mostly caused by low estrogen levels and endocrine disorders. There are many reasons for small and dark menstrual flow. In addition to luteal insufficiency, abnormal thyroid and prolactin function, post-abortion surgery or endometrial adhesion are also among the reasons. In addition, it also includes long-term malnutrition, environmental changes, mental stress, improper menstrual care, cold body, etc.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that scanty and dark menstruation is caused by qi stagnation and blood stasis, which block the blood vessels and cause poor blood circulation. Therefore, the color of blood is dark brown on the first day of menstruation and the last few days when the amount of blood is small. It may be caused by the menstrual blood staying in the uterus for too long, and it is often accompanied by dysmenorrhea. Therefore, experts recommend that female friends who experience this phenomenon should go to the hospital for examination in time. Generally, diseases that cause irregular menstruation in women are seen in ovarian diseases and cervical diseases. Menstruation is formed after the hormones secreted by the ovaries stimulate the endometrium. The hormones secreted by the ovaries are controlled by the release of hormones from the pituitary gland and hypothalamus. Therefore, whether it is the ovaries, pituitary gland, or hypothalamus that are abnormal in function, it will affect menstruation.
