Menstruation comes 8 days early and the blood is still dark

Women generally have their period once a month. Sometimes there will be short-term deviations, but generally not a big difference. Moreover, the color of a woman's blood will be a little dark in the early stages of her menstruation, but it will generally return to normal color after one to two days. Some women find that their periods come eight days early and the blood is very dark. So, what is going on if the blood is still dark 8 days in advance?

1. Why is the blood still dark 8 days in advance?

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that dark red blood clots are caused by blood stasis. In your case, if you also have dysmenorrhea, it is more certain that it is caused by blood stasis. It is recommended that you treat your current condition by taking brown sugar water and Yuanhu painkiller tablets, pay attention to keeping warm, pay attention to local cleanliness and hygiene, get enough rest, and avoid eating raw, cold and greasy food.

This situation should be considered to be caused by irregular menstruation. There are many reasons for menstrual disorders, such as: common causes include ovarian dysfunction, uterine disease, uterine cavity disease, endocrine dysfunction, gynecological inflammation, mood swings, drug effects, environmental changes, overwork and excessive mental stress, etc. It is recommended to go to the hospital for examination in time to identify the cause so as to follow the doctor's advice and receive targeted treatment as soon as possible.

2. Reasons for dark menstrual color

Darker menstrual blood may be related to inflammation. In fact, the menstrual blood that comes every month is the blood flowing in the blood vessels in the body, and it should be bright red. However, because menstrual blood is mixed with sloughed endometrial fragments, cervical mucus and vaginal epithelial cells, it appears dark in color and is not as bright red as blood flowing from broken skin.

And there are some small thin fragments mixed in the menstrual blood. In particular, some people have less menstrual blood, and the color becomes darker as the blood stays in the uterus and vagina for a longer time. While paying attention to the color of menstrual blood, you should also pay attention to the menstrual cycle, duration of menstruation, amount of menstruation, and whether you have any discomfort. It is recommended to go to the hospital for a simple gynecological B-ultrasound examination. Do not take medicine blindly.
