Why is the color of my period darker?

The normal color of women's menstrual blood is dark red, but some women's menstrual blood turns black. The darkening of women's menstrual blood can be known by observing the color of menstrual blood every time she has her period. The darkening of women's menstrual blood is likely caused by qi deficiency and blood stasis, blood and qi fatigue, or kidney deficiency. This condition is also very serious and effective treatment measures must be taken immediately. So, let's actually discuss why women's menstrual blood turns darker?

What is the reason why menstrual blood turns black?

1. Qi deficiency and blood stasis

Women's menstrual cycle is not the same every time. Sometimes the menstrual flow is large and sometimes it is very small. Most of the time it is dark purple and accompanied by blood clots. There will also be symptoms such as lower abdominal pain, chest tightness, shortness of breath, and dark spots in the mouth. At this time, it is necessary to use the methods of promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis, regulating qi and relieving pain for treatment.

2. Deficiency of Qi and Blood

Qi and blood deficiency is very common among women. Weak Qi and blood can cause women to have irregular menstruation, menstrual disorders, and fatigue and chills during menstruation. Female friends should drink more red dates and longan soup after their menstrual period, which is very good for replenishing qi and blood.

3. Kidney deficiency

Women with kidney deficiency will have irregular menstrual cycles, more or less menstrual flow, bright red or dark red color, and are often accompanied by symptoms of dizziness, back pain, dizziness and excessive urination. If the tongue is pale or the pulse is very slow, we need to immediately start nourishing the kidneys and strengthening yang to regulate menstruation.

4. Detoxification

Menstruation is actually the body's detoxification. The darker the color, the greater the toxicity. It means that you have been eating too much acidic fruits or taking too many medicines before, so that too much acid has accumulated in the body. The body just detoxifies through menstruation. It's all cleared up, of course everything is normal.
