Can I exercise during my period?

In modern society, more and more people like to go to the gym, because fitness can not only strengthen the body, but also have a strong effect in shaping the body. So whether it is women or men, they like to go to the gym regularly to make themselves in better shape. When women are menstruating, their bodies are much weaker than at other times. Many women will consider whether they can continue to exercise during their menstruation.

When women are menstruating, their bodies are relatively weak, so it is generally not recommended for them to do much exercise, but normal walks are fine. If you exercise, your menstrual flow may increase, your abdominal pain may worsen, and you will need to wear a sanitary napkin due to bleeding, so exercising is very inconvenient. Therefore, try not to go outdoors during your period, keep warm, avoid catching cold, eat more nutritious food, and keep your vulva clean. Be careful not to eat raw, cold and spicy foods to avoid abdominal pain and discomfort.

Appropriate activities during menstruation can prevent symptoms such as dysmenorrhea and blood clots during menstruation. Avoid sitting for a long time during menstruation, but strenuous exercise is not recommended. Strenuous exercise will cause an increase or decrease in menstrual blood volume, which may cause or aggravate the symptoms of dysmenorrhea. During menstruation, you should drink more brown sugar water and hot water, try not to touch raw, cold, hard food and cold fruits, maintain menstrual hygiene, and avoid having sex during menstruation. Having sex during menstruation may also increase the incidence of gynecological diseases.

The menstrual period is a time when girls' physical condition, immunity, blood circulation, hormone levels and mood are very poor. Be sure not to exercise at this time, as running and spinning are both high-intensity exercises.

At this time, the body's resistance is particularly poor. If you are not careful, you may catch a cold or fever. In severe cases, it may cause hormonal disorders and cause the next menstruation to be irregular or even absent.

During this time, you can sing or listen to music with a strong sense of rhythm, because running and cycling are also tests of lung capacity and heart rate capacity. Singing can also use lung capacity during this period, and listening to music with a strong sense of rhythm will keep the heart rate at a high level. In addition, listening to music can also relieve girls' depression during menstruation.
