Menstrual flow is small and black, why is this?

Patient's question:

I used to have very regular periods, but recently, for some reason, they've been getting more and more irregular. There are issues with the timing, flow, and color. Could it be that I'm getting some kind of disease? Please ask: Why is the menstrual flow light and black?

Doctor's answer:

Low menstrual volume, less leukorrhea, is generally considered to be due to possible causes such as insufficient qi and blood in the body, anemia, or qi stagnation and blood clots. It can be nourished through diet, such as eating red dates or drinking brown sugar water. Try to maintain good lifestyle habits and avoid overtime and late nights. In addition to symptomatic treatment, patients with low menstrual volume should also pay attention to maintaining a good mood in daily life, as a positive mood is very helpful for the complete recovery of the disease. Thank you!
