Is a small amount of dark menstrual flow a sign of pregnancy?

Patient's question:

I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried it might affect my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Is it normal for the menstrual flow to be light and the color to be dull during pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

According to the situation you described, it is not pregnancy, but rather a manifestation of menstrual hypomenorrhea caused by endocrine disorders. This falls under the category of blood stasis syndrome. Treatment should focus on promoting blood circulation, resolving blood stasis, and regulating menstruation. You can take Chinese herbal medicine for regulation. Taohong Siwu Decoction () can be used for treatment.
The occurrence of menstrual irregularities not only affects a woman's physical health but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for a leukorrhea test to identify the cause and then receive targeted treatment. Additionally, pay close attention to personal hygiene and maintain cleanliness in the perineal area.
