Due to the special nature of their menstrual period, women must pay attention to the relevant matters of menstruation. The time, amount, color, etc. of each month's menstruation are all important. Some women have regular menstruation and normal amount, which means they are in good physical condition. However, some women said that their menstrual flow was normal before, but why is it that the amount of menstrual flow is small and dark this month? It's not a big problem if it happens once in a while, it may be related to your physical condition that month. What is the reason for less and darker menstruation? 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. If you have one or two occasional scant and dark menstrual periods, you can restore them to normal by adjusting your work and rest schedule. If you have scant and dark menstrual periods for a long time, you should go to the hospital for examination and symptomatic treatment. What to do if your menstrual flow is light and dark Under normal circumstances, women's menstrual blood is dark red. In addition to blood, it also contains endometrial fragments, cervical mucus and exfoliated vaginal epithelial cells. Some women have a small amount of menstrual flow and dark blood, which may be caused by menstrual blood accumulating in the uterine cavity for a long time. Because menstrual blood is mixed with sloughed endometrial fragments, cervical mucus and vaginal epithelial cells, it appears dark in color. It is not as bright red as the blood flowing out from damaged skin. There are also some small thin fragments mixed in the menstrual blood. In this case, the small amount of dark menstruation can be adjusted through diet and lifestyle care: 1. Avoid eating raw, cold food; you can regulate your body through dietary therapy such as motherwort soup and brown sugar water. 2. Be careful to clean the external genitalia before and after sex, and be gentle during sex to avoid damaging the reproductive tract; 3. Maintain good hygiene habits, choose breathable cotton underwear, and change and wash them frequently. 4. Avoid having sex during menstruation. 5. Keep a happy spirit and learn to relieve negative emotions. A woman's scanty and dark menstrual flow may also be caused by disease. Therefore, it is recommended that women go to the hospital for a timely check-up to see if they have ovarian or cervical disease. If it is caused by the disease, with early treatment and elimination of the cause, menstruation will soon return to normal. |
