Why do you have a strong appetite during menstruation?

During menstruation, women's estrogen secretion will be relatively strong, and their metabolism will become faster, which makes them prone to hunger. At this time, you can eat more of what you want to eat, such as birthday cake, which can satisfy your appetite and increase your sense of fullness.

Women have always affectionately called menstruation as a holiday because it stays with women from the teenage stage and cannot be beaten once a month. If it is abnormal, it may not arrive on time. With the improvement of people's health awareness, they gradually realize that there are many areas that need attention during menstruation, but women have a question, why do they always feel hungry after menstruation?

I don’t know how many women feel hungry and don’t know how to eat during their menstrual period. Even if they were full, after a while they were hungry again, as if their stomach was a bottomless pool. Many people will worry about this. Is there something wrong with their bodies? What is the reason?

In fact, female friends don’t need to worry too much about this. They feel hungry all the time during menstruation, which is normal. During menstruation, women secrete aldosterone, which not only makes their abdomens fatter, but also increases their appetite, so of course they eat more. When a woman has her period, her mood is also very likely to change and her progesterone level will drop. Taking in some carbohydrates at this time can eliminate some negative emotions, so eating can also improve negative emotions.

During menstruation, women's estrogen secretion will be relatively strong, and their metabolism will become faster, which makes them prone to hunger. At this time, you can eat more of what you want to eat, such as birthday cake, which can satisfy your appetite and increase your sense of fullness. However, if you feel hungry during your period, it is best not to eat spicy food or cold drinks to avoid aggravating your discomfort. You should also eat less high-calorie and high-fat foods, and you won't be as fat during your period as you think.

Does it really matter what you eat during your period?

I still remember when I was in college, a girl in my dormitory lost weight and was afraid to eat meat on weekdays, but when her period came, she also started eating and drinking. We all asked her curiously if she was losing weight? He said she doesn't gain weight during her period. Is that really the case?

Everyone should know that menstruation comes from the shedding of the uterine wall. Every time a woman has her period, she discharges about 20ml to 80ml of menstrual fluid. The process of women's menstrual metabolism is actually the process of the body excreting toxins and unnecessary water. As a result, some people feel that they lose weight during their menstrual period. In fact, what they lack is water, not real fat.

Before the menstrual period arrives, women will experience abnormal estrogen metabolism, slow basal metabolism and gain weight. After a woman's menstruation, her basal metabolism speeds up and a lot of menstrual blood is discharged, which of course makes you feel thinner. In fact, women's weight is only restored during the menstrual period. Some studies have found that during menstruation, women's metabolism speeds up by only one-third, so it's not easy for them to lose weight by eating what they like.

If you really like to eat, it is best to eat on the first and second days of your new menstrual period, but don't eat too much or eat too much at other times. It is best to stick to flat support, which helps burn fat and make your body thinner. Some women think they can't exercise during their menstrual period, but this is not the case. Moderate exercise can enhance the body's immunity and help burn fat.

In general, it is normal to feel hungry during menstruation, but a person should not eat too much, as eating too much will easily cause weight gain. Pay attention to moderate exercise and a healthy diet during menstruation, and your natural body shape will be better maintained.
