What medicine should I take if I have blood clots during menstruation?

It is normal for women to have menstruation, which is a physiological behavior that occurs once a month. It is caused by the cyclical growth and expansion of female ovaries, which then leads to the shedding of some useless tissue, and is generally accompanied by bleeding. However, some people experience blood clots, which are more serious symptoms. It may be a manifestation of blood stasis in the body and should be treated in time. The following will introduce what medicine to take if there are blood clots during menstruation.

What to eat if there are blood clots during menstruation? It is recommended to use safflower. The effects of safflower recorded in Compendium of Materia Medica include promoting blood circulation, relieving pain and regulating menstruation. The Eastern Han Dynasty medical book "Treatise on Miscellaneous Diseases" also records that "Sixty-two kinds of wind in women are stabbing pains in the qi and blood in the abdomen, and safflower wine is the main treatment", which means that safflower can treat irregular menstruation. Therefore, for women, safflower is a rare medicinal ingredient. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that safflower has a good therapeutic effect on irregular menstruation and postpartum blood stasis and abdominal pain. Safflower has a good therapeutic effect on the most common menstrual disease in women.

Diet therapy of safflower for treating irregular menstruation: take 15 grams of safflower, 30 grams of hawthorn, and 250 milliliters of white wine.
