Please ask: A bit dark? Was the period on time? Is it normal? What could be the reason?
Hello: The dark color may be related to your recent mood and stress. It's not a big problem.
If it's related to recent mood and stress, then I don't feel like my mood has been that bad recently?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, women experience menstruation every month. In fact, menstruation is a barometer of a woman's recent health status, representing her qi and blood. A normal menstrual period is red, and on the first day, it may appear darker, which is due to some residual blood from the previous cycle and is normal. If the color remains dark for several days and the flow is light, it is a clear sign of qi deficiency.
Irregular menstruation not only affects a woman's life but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to visit a gynecology department in the hospital for a leukorrhea test to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. In daily life, pay attention to dietary adjustments, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, irritating, and cold foods.
