Small clots in menstrual blood refer to the presence of tiny, often minute, blood clots that appear during menstruation. These clots are generally small in size and may be noticed amidst the menstrual flow.
While it's common to have some clots during menstruation, particularly on heavier days, the appearance of small clots can sometimes indicate underlying health concerns. Understanding their nature and cause is crucial for addressing any potential health issues.
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) approaches small clots in menstrual blood as a sign of potential imbalance within the body's systems. In TCM, the menstrual cycle is closely linked to the flow and balance of Qi (energy) and Blood within the body. Small clots are often seen as an indication of stagnation or disruption in this flow, reflecting an underlying disharmony that TCM aims to rectify through various treatments and practices.
