How to deal with blood clots on the first day of menstruation

In today's society, due to the great pressure of life, some women do not pay attention to their diet and life patterns during menstruation, and often experience lower abdominal pain or irregular menstruation during menstruation. Moreover, many women are prone to blood clots and other impurities because they do not pay attention on the first day of menstruation. So what should you do if there are blood clots on the first day of menstruation? Let's talk about what to do in detail.

Menstruation is caused by the shedding of the endometrium. The shedding endometrium and blood mix together to form menstrual blood.

1. Menstrual blood volume: Most of the time it is 50 ml, with the highest amount on the second or third day of menstruation, and then gradually decreases. Most people's menstrual period lasts 3-5 days, but as few as 1-2 days and as many as 7-8 days are also considered normal.

2. Menstrual cycle: From the first day of menstruation to the first day of the next menstruation is called a menstrual cycle. A few people have a cycle as short as 20 days or as long as 45 days. As long as the menstruation is regular, it is normal.

3. Characteristics of menstrual blood: The characteristic of menstrual blood is that it does not coagulate. In addition to blood, menstrual blood contains fragments of endometrial lining and vaginal epithelial cells.

During menstruation, if you experience back pain and leg swelling, try not to pound your waist, as this will cause more congestion in the pelvis. Do not use shower gel to clean your vulva. Also, do not drink alcohol or do strenuous exercise. During menstruation, due to the shedding of the endometrium, do not have sexual intercourse, as this can easily infect the uterus. Do not eat raw or cold food. Have a good rest.
