The timing of a woman's menstrual cycle, irregular menstrual patterns, and the color of her menstrual cycle can all determine her physical health. A woman's normal menstrual cycle is dark red and non clotting, so what's the reason for having blood clots in her menstrual cycle?
Menstrual blood residue may be a symptom of fungal vaginitis. Normal menstrual blood should appear as dark red blood with a small amount of white debris, which is shedding endometrium. Occasionally, menstrual blood with a small amount of dark red blood clots is normal. If there is a phenomenon of menstrual blood with residue, it is a pathological symptom. It is recommended to go to the hospital for medical treatment after the menstrual period is over, and cooperate with the doctor to conduct a vaginal discharge test to confirm whether there is fungal vaginitis.
If there is blood residue during menstruation, it may be caused by a small amount of menstrual blood stasis in the uterine cavity, which cannot be discharged in a timely manner. When female endocrine disorders occur and hormone levels are insufficient, it can lead to a decrease in menstrual blood, resulting in stasis in the uterine cavity and inability to be discharged, resulting in blood clots. Endometritis, uterine polyps, and other conditions can also cause menstrual blood stasis.
Some women may experience symptoms such as cold stagnation, qi stagnation, and blood stasis during menstruation due to overeating or consuming excessively cold or chilled food, or living in a cold or humid environment for too long. It is recommended that patients seek timely diagnosis and treatment at the obstetrics and gynecology department of the local hospital to avoid delaying their condition.
