Why is the first menstrual period after a miscarriage black?

If the first menstrual period after abortion is black, it is mostly caused by long-term sitting, cold abdomen, endometritis, endometrial damage, uterine cavity residue, etc. It is recommended to seek medical attention in time and take appropriate treatment measures under the guidance of a doctor. The details are as follows:

1. Long-term sitting: If you stay in bed or sit for a long time after miscarriage, it is likely to cause blood stasis in the uterine cavity. Black blood will appear during the first menstruation, and the condition will improve after moderate activity.

2. Cold abdomen: If a woman does not take good care of herself in her daily life after miscarriage, her abdomen will get cold, causing uterine cold, accompanied by the symptom that the first menstrual period is black. She needs to use a hot towel for hot compress.

3. Endometritis: Endometritis is easy to occur after miscarriage. There will be symptoms of abdominal pain and black blood during the first menstruation. You should follow the doctor's advice and use clindamycin hydrochloride capsules, metronidazole tablets, amoxicillin capsules and other drugs for treatment.

4. Endometrial damage: If the endometrium is damaged during the abortion process, it is likely to cause the endometrium to thin. During the first menstruation, there will be a small amount of bleeding and dark color. Patients can take diethylstilbestrol tablets, progesterone capsules, desogestrel ethinyl estradiol tablets and other medications as prescribed by the doctor.

5. Residual tissue in the uterine cavity: If residual tissue in the uterine cavity after miscarriage causes irregular vaginal bleeding and symptoms of black bleeding, go to the hospital for curettage if necessary.

It may also be caused by intrauterine adhesions. Women should pay attention to their diet after miscarriage and eat nutritious foods, such as lean meat and eggs, to enhance their physical fitness and help restore normal menstruation.
