I have a period and I have blood clots

Women who are menstruating will feel particularly weak, and some women with irregular menstruation will also experience abdominal pain during their periods. Since menstruation is a physiological phenomenon caused by the regular shedding of the endometrium, women's lower body will bleed during menstruation. Because many women will observe the blood situation of their menstrual period when they go to the toilet. Is it normal to find blood clots in their menstrual period?

What causes menstrual bleeding?

Many women tend to regard the presence of blood clots during menstruation as a normal thing and generally do not take it seriously. In fact, this awareness is wrong. If the menstrual flow is heavy and the blood clots are in the form of blood stasis, you should go to the hospital for examination in time to find out the cause.

Normal menstrual blood is dark red, non-coagulated blood, which contains a small amount of endometrial fragments, cervical mucus and vaginal epithelial cells. When a large amount of endometrium is shed, blood clots will appear, which is a normal physiological phenomenon. Generally speaking, the phenomenon of blood clots in menstrual blood is related to the amount of bleeding and the rate of bleeding. If menstrual blood is blocked in the same area and not discharged in time, blood clots will form after 5 to 10 minutes of accumulation. Blood clots usually occur in the morning when you first wake up or after sitting for a long time.

In addition to normal factors, what factors are related to menstrual blood clots?

Uterine fibroids: If a woman has a lot of menstrual blood clots and severe dysmenorrhea, it is likely caused by uterine fibroids.

Endocrine disorders: Menstrual blood clots in women are generally related to the shedding of the endometrium, but if there is continuous heavy menstrual flow and many blood clots, it may be caused by endocrine disorders.

Chinese medicine diet therapy to relieve heavy menstrual flow and blood clots

1. Motherwort Drink: 30 grams each of motherwort, black beans, brown sugar and aged wine, add two bowls of water, bring to a boil over low heat and cook for about half an hour to extract the juice. Take warm three times a day.

2. Panax notoginseng powder: Take 3 grams of Panax notoginseng powder and drink it with boiled water, two to three times a day, starting from the beginning of menstruation until the pain disappears.

How to regulate irregular menstruation

1. Do not eat raw or cold food one week before menstruation (this is something you must pay attention to). For people with normal menstruation, there is nothing wrong with eating raw or cold food before or during menstruation, but for people with irregular menstruation, you must pay attention to this.

2. When menstruation comes, drink a cup of boiled water soaked with brown sugar every day

3. It is best not to overwork yourself during menstruation

4. A person’s mood and stress will affect the normality of menstruation, so try not to let yourself be too depressed.

5. Generally, foreign physiological health products for regulating menstruation and treating endocrine are more reliable. American Heluya and Japanese Shiseido both have quick effects. I persisted in using American Heluya for five months, and now I am back to normal (this is my personal situation).

6. It is best not to use cold water when menstruating. Generally speaking, you can use cold water when menstruating, but for people with irregular menstruation, it is best not to use cold water!

7. Menstrual irregularities must be treated, otherwise such abnormal menstruation may lead to infertility in the future (of course, infertility is not necessarily caused by irregular menstruation).
