Many female friends will have blood clots during menstruation or at the end of menstruation. Is this normal? Menstruation is caused by the shedding of the endometrium. The shedding endometrium mixes with blood to form menstrual blood. If there is a large amount of endometrial shedding, that is, blood clots, it is a normal physiological phenomenon. However, if the menstrual flow is heavy and there are many blood clots during menstruation, it is blood stasis.

However, after the bleeding stops, you can go to the local hospital for a detailed examination in time, mainly to rule out other causes.

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. In this case, Chinese medicine can generally be used for treatment. According to the symptoms and signs, the methods of promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis, regulating qi and unblocking collaterals can have better effects. Herbs such as safflower, peach kernel, mint, kuncao, zelan, and red peony root have good effects on improving symptoms and signs. However, this should be taken under the guidance of a doctor.
