What causes a small amount of menstrual flow with dark black color?

Patient's question:

Feeling weak and sore all over, not very comfortable, why is the menstrual flow amount small and the color dark black?

Doctor's answer:

In this case, it may indicate a cold body or be accompanied by qi stagnation and blood stasis, which can affect the normal menstrual bleeding volume, potentially making it heavier. It is recommended to follow medical advice and actively nourish the body. However, it is advisable to prevent catching a cold, among other things. If accompanied by menstrual pain, it is also recommended to follow medical advice and actively decide to use herbs like motherwort or Xiao Yao Wan for invigorating blood and regulating menstruation to see if it yields better results. It is also recommended to maintain a low-salt, low-fat diet and pay attention to hygiene.
