What should I do if I have a stomachache during my period?

It is said that women have such a few days every month, and these days refer to women’s menstruation. During these few days, women not only feel weak all over, but also feel abdominal pain. Sometimes they don't even want to work because of the unbearable pain, and they don't even have the strength to talk to others. So, what should you do if you have stomach pain during your period? It is recommended that you take the following measures to relieve the pain.

Rest as much as possible

Don't try to be stubborn and don't feel bad about losing one or two days' salary. Your body is your own. If you lose it, you will lose everything. Many girls think that it is normal to have abdominal pain during menstruation. Therefore, even if they are in excruciating pain during their menstrual period, they still insist on staying up late to work overtime and make changes to their plans. Finally, when they get married and have children, they find that their physical condition is much worse than before. The correct approach should be to not think about anything, stop the work and tasks at hand, lie down in bed for a while, and take good care of yourself.

Boil brown sugar ginger water

Ginger can warm the stomach and uterus, and brown sugar can relieve pain to a certain extent. Drinking brown sugar ginger water during menstruation can help expel blood clots. It is especially effective for girls with cold and weak body.

Put a warm baby under the belly

During menstruation, the uterus must not be exposed to cold. In an air-conditioned office, it is best to put a heat pack on it to keep the uterus warm. If you are lying in bed to rest, you must not use a hot pack. Moreover, the heat pack is attached to the clothes and does not directly contact the skin. If it directly contacts the skin, the skin will be burned.

No cold drinks, no spicy food

During menstruation, do not drink milk tea, ice cream or other cold drinks, do not drink coffee or tea. You can eat some chocolate instead of these forbidden foods. If you can't help it, think about the consequences of eating these, which is that your menstruation will be delayed, will be dragged out, and the menstrual volume will suddenly increase or decrease, which will cause great harm to yourself.

Try not to wash your hair for the first three days.

Many people have this feeling: when they have their period, they wash their hair, but their period suddenly stops for most of the day, or even a day, before it continues. It is really puzzling and worrying. This is because when washing your hair, moisture enters the capillaries, and if you don't dry your hair with a hair dryer immediately, it causes the body to become cold, which is why this happens.

Go to the hospital and see a doctor

For some more serious cases of dysmenorrhea, where the patient rolls on the ground in pain or loses consciousness, you need to go to the hospital to see a doctor, who will prescribe painkillers first and then Chinese medicine to regulate the menstrual pain. For healthy women, menstruation pain will not make them roll on the ground. The pain will only be a little bit during the first three days. Therefore, if the pain is very severe, you must seek medical treatment in time.
