Pay attention to health care during menstruation. What should not be done during menstruation?

Women have a few days of inconvenience every month, which is the menstrual period. You need to pay attention to this time, and some people even suffer from dysmenorrhea. For the sake of women's health, it is best not to do five things. Let me explain them one by one.

What should not be done during menstruation?

1. Avoid getting cold during menstruation

During menstruation, experienced elders will tell us not to touch cold water, not to drink iced beverages, and not to get cold. These are all correct practices, because women's physique cannot get cold. If you get cold during menstruation, it will cause cold air to accumulate in the body, causing symptoms such as back pain. In addition, during menstruation, the uterus is more fragile. If you get cold at this time, it will cause insufficient qi and blood, and it is easy to have dysmenorrhea.

2. Don’t drink alcohol

Contemporary women are not only busy with their families, but also have their own place in the workplace. Being busy with careers, it is inevitable to have social events, and drinking is inevitable during social events. However, drinking during menstruation is particularly harmful to the body and should be avoided as much as possible. During menstruation, the metabolic function is reduced, and the liver cannot break down alcohol well, which will cause liver diseases over time. Therefore, during menstruation, female friends should try to avoid drinking to avoid damage to the uterus and liver.

3. Avoid strenuous exercise

Every female friend knows that you cannot do strenuous exercise during menstruation. Strenuous exercise during menstruation can aggravate dysmenorrhea and cause damage to the ovaries and uterus. However, you cannot be inactive during menstruation. Inactivity will cause menstrual blood to stagnate. Therefore, you can do moderate activities during menstruation, but you should avoid strenuous exercise. You can choose gentle exercise such as walking to achieve the purpose of moderate exercise.

4. No sex

The last thing you should do during menstruation is to have sex. As we all know, women's immunity decreases during menstruation, and their resistance to diseases is poor. If you have sex at this time, it is easy to cause bacterial growth and fungal infection, causing inflammation. In addition, having sex during menstruation will cause menstrual blood to flow back, which is easy to cause gynecological inflammation.

5. Don’t hit your waist

During menstruation, women will experience many uncomfortable symptoms due to pelvic congestion, such as back pain, lower abdominal pain, breast pain, etc. Many people use waist beating to relieve the pain due to back pain, but they don’t know that the more they beat, the more sore and painful it becomes. This is because waist beating will make pelvic congestion more serious, so waist beating is not advisable.

Women have inconvenient times every month, and various uncomfortable situations may occur. I believe that through the above description, every female friend has learned what to avoid doing during menstruation. For the sake of your own health, you must learn to love and protect yourself. Only in this way can you have a good life.
