What's wrong with a small amount of menstrual flow and black color?

Menstruation is generally a problem that most women are concerned about and worried about. For abnormal menstruation, everyone also wants to know the reason. Many friends are asking why the menstrual flow is small and the color is dark. Let me introduce it to you.

It is caused by an imbalance in neuroendocrine function: mainly due to unstable or defective function of the lower back of the head-pituitary gland-uterus and ovary axis, which is menstrual disorder.

Caused by organic diseases or drugs: such as trichomoniasis, endocrine imbalance, cervicitis, pelvic inflammatory disease, abnormal adrenal function, diabetes, Sheehan's disease, etc. Menstrual disorders may occur if you use medicines for treating diseases, endocrine Chinese medicine preparations or use IUDs for contraception.

Deficiency of Qi and blood causes dark menstruation, scanty menstruation, irregular cycles, darker, lighter, thinner menstruation, or lower back pain or dizziness, sometimes fatigue, pale or sallow complexion, light red tongue, deep and fine pulse. Treatment should be to invigorate Qi and nourish blood.

Qi deficiency and blood stasis cause dark menstrual blood, irregular menstrual period, more or less menstrual flow, purple-red color, blood clots, poor menstrual flow, or lower abdominal pain, breast pain, abdominal distension and discomfort, dark purple tongue or petechiae, greasy white or thin yellow tongue coating, and deep or wiry pulse. It is suitable for promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis, regulating qi and relieving pain.

Kidney deficiency causes women's black menstruation, irregular physiological cycles, small amount of menstruation, light red or dark red color, and thin texture. Back pain, weak legs, heel pain, tinnitus, dizziness, or cold lower abdomen, or frequent urination at night. The tongue is pale and the pulse is weak or slow. Treatment is suitable for tonifying the kidney, strengthening yang and regulating menstruation.

When the menstrual flow is small and the color becomes dark, it is actually due to qi stagnation and blood stasis, which is caused by the long-term accumulation of menstrual blood in the uterine cavity during the menstrual period. Low menstrual volume refers to a smaller amount of menstrual flow than usual during menarche, which is mostly caused by deficiency of qi and blood, qi stagnation and blood stasis, blood stasis, cold stagnation of blood vessels, and phlegm obstruction.

Female friends must pay attention to the hygiene of private parts, do not have sex during menstruation, and pay attention to keeping the abdomen warm to avoid cold stimulation, do not overwork, and female friends with heavy menstrual flow should not eat old brown sugar.
