"What Should I Do if My Menstrual Flow Is Light and Dark?"
Scanty and dark menstruation can be adjusted by using traditional Chinese medicine. During menstruation, you can drink some brown sugar ginger water appropriately, soak your feet in hot water, and pay attention to keeping your abdomen warm. In terms of diet, you can eat more food that nourishes qi and blood, and avoid eating cold and spicy food to prevent menstruation from becoming even scanter. If there is no improvement for a long time, you should go to the hospital for examination to see if it is caused by illness and seek timely treatment.

1. Depressed mood: During menstruation, many women's moods become unstable, sometimes getting angry or sulking for no reason. Although these are emotional fluctuations, they still cause physiological abnormalities. Frequent long-term occurrence can lead to endocrine disorders, resulting in phenomena such as scanty menstruation and poor menstrual blood color.
2. Excessive dieting: Some girls choose not to eat to lose weight, which is an unscientific weight loss method and harmful to health. Long-term dieting can lead to weakened constitution, as malnutrition easily leads to deficiency of both qi and blood, resulting in decreased menstrual flow and prolonged menstrual cycle.
3. Qi stagnation and blood stasis: During menstruation, the menstrual blood discharged from the body sometimes accompanies a large amount of blood clots, which is caused by the prolonged accumulation of menstrual blood in the uterine cavity. Many women may also experience abdominal pain and other conditions.
