Patient Question
Hello Doctor,
I recently had a miscarriage, and this is my first period since then. I’ve noticed that my menstrual blood is orange in color. Is this normal, or should I be concerned?

Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.
There's nothing to worry about. After a miscarriage, it's common for your period to be delayed, lighter, or have an irregular flow, including changes in color. Over time, your cycle should return to normal. However, if you experience fever, severe pain, or an unusual odor, it could indicate an infection, and you should see a gynecologist for further evaluation.
Thanks
