Dont worry

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Welcome to healthcare magic.

The orange colour while on your periods show the blood which is slightly old and had stayed in .

This has come out with endometrium of uterus.

There is nothing to worry as it is normal and happens at times.

Let me know if there are any more concrens.
