Ovulation bleeding and lower abdominal pain

Below the lower abdomen of women is the huge reproductive system in their bodies, so when there is pain in the lower abdomen, it usually means that there is a disorder in the reproductive system. Many women experience lower abdominal pain mainly due to the arrival of menstruation. Menstruation generally increases the feeling of lower abdominal pain in women, which is a normal phenomenon. However, many women bleed and have lower abdominal pain during ovulation. Is this normal?

During a woman's ovulation period, external factors such as environmental changes, staying up late, stress, and mood can cause estrogen levels to fluctuate and decrease, leading to endometrial shedding and vaginal bleeding. This is called ovulation bleeding. Since the endometrium is shedding at this time, the patient will usually experience lower abdominal pain similar to menstruation, so occasional ovulation bleeding does not require special treatment. If you experience ovulation bleeding accompanied by lower abdominal pain for three consecutive months, you need to go to the hospital's gynecology department to check six hormone levels, and then use short-acting contraceptives to treat the symptoms.

What should I pay attention to when I have lower abdominal pain?

1. Eat less cold food

These foods have the effects of clearing away heat and detoxifying, nourishing yin and reducing fire, such as pears, bananas, watermelons, bitter melon, etc. Try to avoid or reduce their intake during menstruation, otherwise it is easy to cause symptoms such as dysmenorrhea and irregular menstruation.

2. Eat less spicy food

In addition, girls who like spicy food should pay attention. Spicy and irritating foods such as cinnamon, pepper, cloves, and pepper should not be consumed during menstruation, because these foods have the effect of activating blood circulation and can easily lead to symptoms such as dysmenorrhea and excessive menstrual bleeding.

3. Avoid overheated or overcooled food
