Question: So i got my period (menstrual cycle) about 3 weeks ago?
and then i got it again last week. i know about breakthrough periods but i've noticed that my blood is dark instead of red like how it usually is. Now, at first i thought that maybe it was because when i looked at my napkin, the blood had gotten old but i just put a napkin on and checked and it's still dark. do you think this could be because of something i've been eating? should i tell my mom about this or am i just paranoid?
By the way, i don't drink//do drugs nor am i or have i been sexually active

Answers:
Sometimes we have old blood, it is a bit darker, but it isn't uncommon for it to come out, after all it can't stay inside.
its natural, the blood is darkened because of the oxygen.
