Many women's menstrual periods are not very normal, either due to high blood volume, long menstrual periods, or early or delayed onset of menstruation. For these phenomena that occur during menstruation, it is necessary to identify the causes and treat them accordingly. Some women also have blood clots during their menstrual period. It is said that blood clots are during detoxification. Is it good or bad to have a large blood clot during menstruation?
A large blood clot during menstruation is an abnormal phenomenon. Normal menstruation does not have blood clots, which contain cervical mucus, shed endometrium, and vaginal epithelial cells. Because menstrual blood contains prostaglandins and the endometrium contains a large amount of fibrinolytic enzymes, menstruation is generally non coagulation.
If the blood volume is high or the bleeding rate is fast, the fibrinolytic activity of fibrinolytic enzymes decreases, and then blood clots may appear. In traditional Chinese medicine, it is believed that blood clots are often caused by blood stasis, so it is recommended to take some drugs that promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis.
If there are only blood clots during menstruation and no other clinical symptoms, special treatment is generally not required. In daily life, it is important to remind female friends to eat less raw and cold food, pay attention to keeping their abdomen and waist warm. During menstruation, it is even more important to pay attention to these issues, and it is not advisable to eat blood activating foods or medications during menstruation. It is recommended to eat some blood nourishing foods, of course, with balanced nutrition.
