Because tooth extraction during menstruation will have a great impact on women's wound healing and physical health. Not only will it cause continuous bleeding at the extraction site, it will also affect the later healing of the wound and make dry socket more likely to occur.

Women's endocrine system is more prone to disorders during menstruation, which can lead to disorders or even destruction of blood coagulation function, thus causing continuous bleeding or excessive bleeding after tooth extraction. The female menstrual cycle is a special and sensitive time. At this time, the disease resistance becomes very fragile and the brain reaction is relatively slow. This is when bacteria are most active and most likely to invade. When a tooth is extracted, the wound surface comes into contact with saliva, which greatly increases the chance of viral invasion due to the longer blood clotting time, and can easily lead to dry socket. If the patient really suffers from dry socket, it will take a very long time to heal, about half a year, so it is very torturous.
