The main components of menstruation are blood (3/4 arterial blood, 1/4 venous blood), endometrial tissue fragments and various active enzymes and biological factors. Among them, fibrinolytic enzyme makes menstrual blood liquid and prevents it from coagulating, and prostaglandins play the role of contracting the uterus. Medically speaking, only the reproductive cycle experienced by primates (including humans) is called menstruation. In addition, the reproductive cycle of other mammals is called the estrus cycle. Menstruation is regulated by the reproductive hormone system and is necessary for biological reproduction. A woman's first menstruation is called menarche, and the onset of menarche marks the entry of a woman into puberty.

Women who have blood clots during their menstruation are believed by traditional Chinese medicine to be suffering from blood stasis, and often have symptoms of qi stagnation and blood stasis, such as rough, dull facial skin and acne. Some patients experience facial pigmentation, which directly affects their facial beauty.
