Patient's question:
At the beginning of July, my aunt didn't leave and went to the water park to play in the water. After coming home, she took anti-inflammatory medicine. My aunt left four days later. Then she went for another rafting trip. Every month she comes earlier, but this month she's delayed. For two days, there was very little black blood, then after a few days, it came back with black blood, but very little, only a little bit would come out when she used the restroom. It was itchy, and the black blood also had some white,-like substance in it.Doctor's answer:
Hello, dark-colored menstruation usually indicates blood stasis. It is generally caused by cold congealing and qi stagnation, leading to poor blood circulation. It is recommended to use Motherwort Paste to promote blood circulation and treat the condition. You may also consider moxibustion on acupoints such as Guanyuan, Sanyinjiao, and Taichong.
