Hi,

It is just because your menstrual blood is mixed with cervical mucus. There is nothing much to worry and it is a normal thing. In case of symptoms like pain or itching we have to rule out possible infection like thrush and in that case you have to go for a vaginal swab.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
