Many girls often cannot go to work normally due to dysmenorrhea. They may even feel bloating and gurgling in their stomachs, and blood often cannot flow out. This is caused by uterine cold. Patients with dysmenorrhea should keep a light diet a few days before menstruation, try not to eat too irritating foods, do not eat too much, and avoid eating raw, cold and greasy foods. 1. Eat light food 3-5 days before menstruation You should eat food that is easy to digest and absorb, do not overeat, and especially avoid eating raw or cold food. Because raw and cold foods can stimulate the contraction of the uterus and fallopian tubes, thus inducing or aggravating dysmenorrhea. 2. When menstruation comes, you should avoid all raw, cold, indigestible and irritating foods. You can eat some sour foods, such as sauerkraut and vinegar, which can relieve dysmenorrhea. 3. In order to relieve dysmenorrhea, patients with dysmenorrhea should have a diversified diet You should not be picky about food and should regularly eat vegetables and fruits that have the effect of regulating qi and promoting blood circulation. Maintain a balanced diet and avoid overly sweet or salty foods as they can make you bloated and slow down, instead eat more vegetables, fruits, chicken, fish and eat more meals. 4. People with dysmenorrhea should keep their bowels open, whether before or after menstruation. 5. Strengthen exercise and improve physical fitness Avoiding heavy physical labor and vigorous exercise can help relieve symptoms of dysmenorrhea. 6. Take vitamins Many patients experience less menstrual pain after taking the appropriate amount of vitamins and minerals every day. Therefore, it is recommended to take a multivitamin and mineral, preferably one containing calcium and in low doses, which can be taken several times a day. 7. Supplementing minerals such as calcium, potassium and magnesium can also help relieve menstrual pain Experts have found that women who take calcium have less menstrual pain than those who do not. Magnesium is also important because it helps the body absorb calcium efficiently. You may want to increase your calcium and magnesium intake before and during your period. 8. Eat less caffeinated foods Eat less caffeinated foods. The caffeine in coffee, tea, and chocolate can make you nervous and may cause discomfort during menstruation. The oil in coffee can also irritate the small intestine. Avoid alcohol If you are prone to edema during your period, drinking alcohol will aggravate the problem. 9. Do not use urinary tract agents Many women believe that diuretics can reduce menstrual swelling and discomfort. In fact, diuretics will excrete important minerals along with water from the body, so you should reduce your intake of salt, alcohol and other substances that cause water retention in the body. 10. Stay warm Keeping the body warm will speed up blood circulation and relax muscles, especially the spasmodic and congested pelvic area. You should drink more hot water. You can also place a hot compress bag or hot water bottle on the abdomen for a few minutes at a time, or use moxa sticks to burn the lower abdomen. 11. Take a Mineral Bath Add 1 cup of salt and 1 cup of sodium bicarbonate to the bathtub. Soaking in warm water for 20 minutes can help relax muscles and relieve menstrual pain. 12. Exercise Especially on the eve of menstruation, walking more or engaging in other moderate exercise will make you more comfortable during menstruation. 13. Practice yoga Practicing yoga can also help, such as kneeling with bent knees and sitting on your heels. Rest your forehead on the ground and stretch your arms out at your sides. Hold this position until you feel uncomfortable. |
