[00:00:02][music] >> Most of us were never taught this, but the color of your period blood tells you a lot about what's happening with your hormones. Bright red and steady? [music] That's a good sign. It usually means your estrogen and progesterone are in decent [music] balance. Dark brown or almost black? That's old blood that took too long to leave, and it often points to low progesterone. [music] Very light pink? That can mean your estrogen is on the low side. Heavy with clots? That's often a sign of too much estrogen. Your body literally hands you this information every single [music] month. Once you know what to look for, you'll never ignore it again.
