Abstrakt: Purpose: The main aim of this study was to compare and analyze hematological profiles using menstrual blood, as an alternative to peripheral blood.
Patients and Methods: This study used menstrual and peripheral blood samples from women who were menstruating. The design of this research is analytical observational.
Results: Menstrual blood can show an overall hematological profile similar to peripheral blood. Data shows the detection of blood component parameters, white blood cells and reticulocytes in MB with a range within and outside normal blood. Data on MB that show higher values (WBC, MCH, MCHC, PLT, RDW-CV, PDW, MPV, P-LCR, PCT, neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, basophils, reticulocytes, LFR, Ret-He) and lower values lower (RBC, HGB, HCT, MVC, RDW-SD, Eosinophils, IRF, MFR, HFR) when compared with peripheral blood controls. The hematological profiles of Menstrual and peripheral blood showed significant differences (p < 0.01) for several parameters, while several other parameters did not show significant differences (p > 0.05) according to the Wilcoxon test.
Conclusion: All hematological profile parameters were detected in menstrual blood. The new concept that menstrual blood can be used as a supporting medium for hematological examinations opens up opportunities for developing independent hematological detection tools in productive women.
