Can I take a bath during my period?

Can I take a bath during my period? Everyone should know that menstruation is a special time. Female friends should pay attention to many things during this period, because during this period, the female body is very sensitive and sensitive. So, can you take a bath or shower during your period? Let’s take a look.

1. Can I take a bath when I have my period?

1. It is best to take a shower

Because during the menstrual period, the uterine wall of new mothers falls off and there are also traumatic surfaces. If we take a shower at this time, the bacteria in the water will enter and multiply in the uterus, causing infection. Therefore, it is recommended that new mothers take a shower during their menstrual period.

2. No need to take a cold shower

You can't use cold water for bathing now, new mothers should all know this, right? Women themselves tend to have a cold constitution and are afraid of cold by nature. Especially during the menstrual period, the immune system will be weakened. Taking a cold bath at this time may cause a cold and harm your health.

3. It is best not to use shower gel

Due to the menstrual period, the cervix of new mothers is slightly dilated. If you use shower gel at this time, it may cause bacteria to be brought in without washing away the bacteria, which is bad for your health.

4. Do not share cotton towels and other toiletries with your family members

When new mothers take a bath during menstruation, it is best to ensure that their own cotton towels and other toiletries are for their own use only and not shared with others. Because the uterus is very sensitive and very susceptible to infection.

5. Be careful when cleaning private parts

When bathing, you should clean the vaginal opening and urethral opening first, then clean the anus, and it is best to clean back and forth. Because the wrinkles of the anus will gather some residual bacteria from defecation. If tap water is used to clean it back and forth, the bacteria at the anus will be brought into the vagina, which may cause infection.

6. It is best not to go to bed without washing

It is best to take a bath 2 hours before going to bed, because taking a bath before going to bed also has a refreshing effect. Generally, when the body temperature drops, the body is easier to fall asleep, and a hot bath will increase the body temperature and delay the release of "sleep hormone" in the brain. Therefore, it is recommended that new mothers try not to take a bath before going to bed, because it will prevent people from entering sleep as soon as possible.
