What should girls pay attention to when they have their period?

Girls experience the arrival of menstruation every month, and our common sense only tells us that we should be careful not to have sex, do strenuous exercise, touch cold things, or take a bath when menstruation comes. In fact, these are just some aspects. There are many other aspects that girls need to pay attention to when they have their menstruation. Now let me give you a detailed introduction on what else you need to pay attention to.

After my period is over, can I go back to my usual habits and relax a little when it comes to private hygiene?

The answer is NO! This is because the vagina is most vulnerable to injury after menstruation! Don’t rush to do the following 4 things! Unfortunately, many women don’t know!

1. Sexual life

Many women think that they can do shameful things after their period is over. In fact, during the period just after their period, the antibacterial ability of the female vagina is relatively weak, and the endometrium of the uterus is also in the repair stage. If you have sex at this time, it will not only easily bring bacteria into the vagina, but also affect the recovery speed of the endometrium, causing the repairing endometrium to rupture, leading to bleeding and causing infection in the uterus.

So just stay still, it's healthier to be patient!

Once many people find that their menstruation is abnormal, they always go to the hospital for a routine check-up directly after the menstruation is over, but they often return empty-handed. This is because when menstruation just ends, the vagina has not yet recovered its normal antibacterial ability. If a vaginal examination is performed at this time, bacterial infection is likely to occur, which is harmful to health.

Recommendation: If you have a gynecological examination within 3 to 7 days after your period ends, you can avoid the above disadvantages.

3. Pad

During menstruation, the increase in hormones will cause increased secretions, and it is always uncomfortable to feel wet down there, so many female friends choose sanitary pads to keep dry. In this regard, experts recommend not to use sanitary pads immediately after the menstrual period ends. Sanitary pads have poor air permeability and are prone to breeding bacteria. When the menstrual period just ends, the vaginal environment of women has not yet recovered. At this time, bacteria are most likely to "take advantage of the opportunity" and induce gynecological inflammation.

Of course, try to use sanitary pads as little as possible in normal times, and even if you need to use them, you must change them frequently.

Because the period has just ended and the stimulation to the uterus caused by menstruation has not yet subsided, if it is stimulated by cold at this time, it can easily cause "backflow" of menstruation or continuous menstruation. Of course, for the same reason, women who have just finished their period should not swim in the swimming pool.

Since you have endured the menstrual period, there is no need to rush these few days. Women should still be nicer to themselves!
