Ten secrets of women's menstrual period!

Menstruation is both familiar and unfamiliar to women. The pain is familiar to everyone, but how much do you know about the private matters hidden behind menstruation? The following ten private whispers about menstruation will reveal the unknown secrets of women's menstruation.

Private Message 1: Emotional Contagion

Emotional instability caused by menstruation can also be contagious. Men may also become irritable during the days when their wives are menstruating. Some scholars believe that this is because women's estrogen levels fluctuate, causing men's hormone secretion to fluctuate like a "roller coaster".

Private Message 2: Decreased Appetite

Research from Tufts University in the United States shows that women's food intake during the menstrual week will be 12% less than usual, and their appetite caused by hormones will also decrease.

Private whisper 3: Quitting smoking is more successful in the week before menstruation

A research report from Minnesota State University in the United States pointed out that in the few days before menstruation, the estrogen level in the body will drop to the lowest level, and the chance of successfully quitting smoking will rise sharply.

Private Message 4: Bad Articulation

During menstruation, due to the influence of progesterone, women may become slurred and their thoughts may become incoherent, which is normal.

Private Whisper 5: Constipation and bloating

Many women also experience constipation, abdominal bloating, etc. At this time, they should drink more water and consume more crude fiber foods to maintain normal bowel movements.

Private whisper 6: Women who live and work together have closer menstrual periods

For women who live and work together, their menstrual periods will become closer and closer. On the one hand, this is because women are affected by each other's psychological tension about the arrival of menstruation, and on the other hand, the stress chemicals released in the body can be contagious.

Private whisper 7: Some women will have diarrhea

During menstruation, the body secretes certain chemicals that stimulate the contraction of the uterus, allowing menstrual blood to be discharged smoothly. This is the same chemical that stimulates the intestinal tract to contract, causing diarrhea. So, once women feel abdominal cramps, they can take some anti-inflammatory analgesics to suppress the contractions.

Private Whisper 8: Menstrual blood has its own color

The longer your menstrual blood stays in your body, the darker its color becomes. Some women may experience yellow or green menstrual blood, which may be an early symptom of vaginitis.

Private whisper 9: Never had menstrual cramps

If your menstrual cycles are irregular after menarche, you may not experience dysmenorrhea within two years. Unfortunately, as you age, your body struggles to regulate your menstrual cycle, and you may experience dysmenorrhea at that time.

Private Whisper 10: Sexual Desire Is Strongest

At this time, the secretion of progesterone, which suppresses sexual desire, is at its lowest. Coupled with the fact that there is no chance of pregnancy, women will be more relaxed about sex.
