Patient's question:
The amount of blood flow during your period this month is a color that can't be described, like dark red or not really dark red. What is the reason? You are 20 years old this year.Doctor's answer:
Your menstruation is a regular shedding of the endometrium influenced by hormonal levels in the body. The normal menstrual flow is 30 to 50 milliliters. The menstrual color is bright red, and the menstrual period lasts 3 to 7 days.According to your description, your menstrual flow might be heavier than usual, possibly due to recent overexertion or malnutrition. The abnormal menstrual color could be caused by prolonged retention of menstrual blood in the uterus or vagina, or it might be due to catching a cold or improper diet.
It is recommended that you enhance your nutrition, pay attention to rest, and avoid cold and spicy foods. Carefully observe the menstrual flow, color, and other conditions. If the menstrual flow remains excessive, you can consult a doctor and use medications to strengthen the thickness of the endometrium under their guidance.
