Some women find that their legs are swollen during their menstrual period. Why is this?

What causes swollen legs during menstruation? From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, swollen legs during menstruation in women are mostly caused by spleen and kidney yang deficiency and poor circulation of water and moisture. It is a very common symptom that can have a relatively large impact on life.

They should not be immersed in negative emotions for a long time, otherwise it will lead to menstrual disorders, which will further aggravate the symptoms of edema.
