Question : Black paste like peridot blood falling uterus
Brief Answer:
Periods flow and color varies. No worries
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking
I read your question and i understand your concern. Periods flow and color varies and should not be worried about. Just make sure pads are replaced regularly and hygiene is taken care of during these days to prevent any infection. Rest assured there is no worries for dark brownish to black colored periods. Seek the doctor if the flow is heavy ( more than 80 ml . 8 pads a day) or is longer than a week to 10 days.
I hope it helps. take good care of yourself and don't forget to close the discussion please.
