Blood clots during menstruation

Why is there always blood clots during menstruation?

Female friends will have their periods on a few days every month. Most menstrual periods are 3 to 5 days, with a normal range of 2 to 7 days. The average total blood volume is about 50 ml, and normal menstruation is dark red. When your menstrual blood has different colors, such as purple-black, dark red, and light red, and you continue to feel lower back pain, abdominal distension, abdominal pain, etc., it may be caused by some diseases.

What is the reason for having blood clots during menstruation?

1. Catch a cold

When blood clots occur, it may be caused by catching a cold. Because female friends themselves have a cold physique, once the body catches a cold or eats too cold food, it is easy to cause uterine cold. Uterine cold will reduce the functioning of the uterus, cause blood stasis, affect the normal discharge of menstruation, and easily cause blood clots.

Therefore, when female friends have this kind of condition due to body cold, we must pay attention to it, keep warm more often, avoid catching cold, and eat less cold food or drinks. Avoid staying in the air-conditioned room for a long time. Women with deficiency of Qi and blood can eat more nourishing and nourishing foods to ensure smooth menstruation.

2. Sitting for a long time

Many women nowadays often have to sit for long periods of time at work. If they sit on desks and chairs for a long time, the pelvic area will be inactive, the local blood circulation will be blocked, and menstruation will not be discharged from the body normally, which will cause menstrual discharge to be blocked and accumulate in the pelvis. When menstruation is discharged from the body, blood clots will form due to coagulation.

Squatting for a long time can easily cause hematoma in women's pelvis, resulting in obstructed blood circulation in the appendages and cervix, and long-term squatting can cause poor ventilation of the private parts. These two factors combined can easily lead to infection, causing cervicitis, cervical erosion, cervical hypertrophy, cervical polyps, etc.

3. Endocrine imbalance

Menstrual irregularities caused by endocrine imbalance can manifest themselves in many ways. Menstrual blood clots are a common symptom.

Excessive menstrual blood clots are generally caused by bleeding due to the shedding of the uterine wall. However, if the menstrual volume is heavy and the blood clots are in the form of blood stasis, timely treatment is required, especially the treatment and maintenance of the uterus and ovaries. Most of the endocrine imbalances are caused by ovarian abnormalities or decline.

Common Menstrual Problems

Not in a good mood for excitement

When girls enter puberty, they begin to have their periods. This is a normal physiological phenomenon and should be treated correctly without any worries. You should maintain a good mood as usual, avoid mental fluctuations, and don't get excited when doing things. It is extremely important to maintain a good mentality for a long time. If a girl has insufficient experience in her first menstrual period, her mother or female relatives and friends should promptly guide and help her to take good care of her life during the menstrual period.

Not suitable for too tired

During the menstrual period, you should pay attention to scientifically arrange your work and rest schedule, avoid excessive exercise and physical work, and ensure that you arrange your time reasonably. Otherwise, it will cause further hematoma in the pelvis, accelerate blood flow, and cause safety hazards such as menorrhagia.

Not suitable for lack of nutrients

Since a certain amount of blood is lost every month after menarche, it is necessary to appropriately increase nutrients such as protein, vitamins, iron, calcium, etc. During the menstrual period, eat more eggs, lean meat, fish, beans, fruits and vegetables.
