Menstrual volume is small and the color is dark, how is it possible?

Patient's question:

During this period, my menstrual flow was light in volume but dark in color, and it seemed to contain blood clots, along with some dirty, meat-like discharge. I haven't felt any discomfort, but I'm unsure if it's due to my mood—my emotions were particularly low those days. Three days after my period ended, I still have some white, meat-like strips, and I wonder if it's because the endometrium detached excessively and is blocked from being expelled.

Doctor's answer:

If this situation occurs again, it may be due to the shedding of the endometrium. You should pay attention to rest and maintain a positive mindset, while avoiding exposure to cold and overexertion. Since you don't have any discomforting symptoms now, it is likely that there isn't a serious issue. Rest well, and you can drink some brown sugar water, which may help alleviate discomfort and prevent overexertion.
The above is the advice for the question "This menstrual period had less blood flow, dark color, and seemed to have clots when it came out." I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
