When to drink brown sugar water should be treated differently according to individual constitution and situation

1. People who have dysmenorrhea during every menstrual period

Most of these people have weak and cold constitutions. When they expect their menstrual period to come, they should take health care measures in advance. These tasks include drinking brown sugar water in advance to warm the uterus and prevent cramps. At the same time, you should not overwork, stand for long periods of time, or go swimming or take cold showers. Keeping warm can allow the uterus to discharge menstrual blood more peacefully and smoothly, and will not cause dysmenorrhea. During the menstrual period, you should also maintain the habit of drinking brown sugar water to continuously warm the uterus and ensure the effectiveness of preventing dysmenorrhea.

2. People who have occasional dysmenorrhea due to certain reasons

For this group of people, there is no need to worry too much about dysmenorrhea caused by some inappropriate behavior before menstruation. If dysmenorrhea is caused by accidental cold, you can hold a hot water bottle to warm the uterus when you feel pain, and use brown sugar water to warm the uterus to relieve uterine spasms. It is not necessary to drink it for a long time or every time.

3. People who experience dysmenorrhea only in the late menstrual period

Some people will start to experience dysmenorrhea when their menstrual period is about to end. In this case, there is no need to drink brown sugar water in advance. Drinking it at the beginning of the menstrual period may have a better effect.

Pay attention to the following issues when drinking brown sugar water

1. Because brown sugar is a crude processed product with many impurities and bacteria, brown sugar water should be boiled, separated from the residue and free of impurities before drinking by new mothers. If conditions permit, you can cook more at a time, filter and refrigerate, pour 1 small cup each time you drink, and take it with boiled water.

2. Since brown sugar has the effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, it is best to eat it within 10 days after delivery, which is conducive to the discharge of bloody lochia and serous lochia. If the condition turns into white lochia, you should stop eating brown sugar, or use less brown sugar, so as not to prolong the time of bloody lochia discharge.

3. Brown sugar is warm in nature, so use less in summer and use more in cold weather. Those who often vomit acid before delivery should use it less or not at all to avoid increasing stomach acid and damaging the stomach.

The glucose contained in brown sugar releases energy quickly, has a high absorption rate, and can quickly replenish physical strength. Children with problems such as lack of energy, loss of appetite, and malnutrition can drink brown sugar water in moderation on a daily basis. People who suffer from abdominal pain due to cold and are prone to catching colds during menstruation can also use brown sugar ginger soup to dispel the cold. Brown sugar also has an excellent effect of curing deficiency and nourishing the body for the elderly and the weak, especially those who have just recovered from a serious illness. Eating a moderate amount of brown sugar can also disperse blood stasis, promote blood circulation, facilitate bowel movements, soothe the liver and improve eyesight.
