What to do if cupping leads to irregular menstruation

Losing weight is something that many women are passionate about. There are many ways to lose weight, and all of them have some side effects. Some methods have more and some have fewer. Cupping is a weight loss method with relatively few side effects. But it doesn't mean that cupping has no side effects at all. Therefore, these side effects should be avoided during treatment. So what should you do if you have irregular menstruation due to cupping for weight loss? Let us introduce it below.

Cupping generally does not cause menstrual irregularities.

Many bad habits and factors may also lead to menstrual disorders.

Emotional disorders causing menstrual disorders

Abnormal emotions, long-term mental depression, sulking, or severe mental stimulation and psychological trauma can all lead to menstrual disorders or dysmenorrhea or amenorrhea. This is because menstruation is caused by the stimulation of the endometrium by hormones secreted by the ovaries, and the hormones secreted by the ovaries are controlled by the release of hormones from the pituitary gland and hypothalamus. Therefore, any abnormality in the function of the ovaries, pituitary gland, or hypothalamus will affect menstruation.

Cold stimulation causes oligomenorrhea or even amenorrhea

According to research, women who are exposed to cold during menstruation will experience excessive contraction of blood vessels in the pelvis, which can cause oligomenorrhea or even amenorrhea. Therefore, women should have a regular daily life, avoid excessive fatigue, and especially keep away from cold and damp during menstruation.

Diet causes menstrual irregularities

Expert studies on excessive dieting show that girls need body fat to account for at least 17% of their body weight to experience menarche, and body fat must reach at least 22% of their body weight to maintain a normal menstrual cycle. Excessive dieting will cause a large amount of fat and protein in the body to be consumed due to insufficient energy intake, resulting in estrogen synthesis disorders and obvious estrogen deficiency, affecting menstruation, or even causing scanty menstruation or amenorrhea. Therefore, women who pursue a slim figure must not diet blindly.

Cupping for weight loss is a common treatment for irregular menstruation. This situation is directly related to incorrect usage or poor physical condition. When such a situation occurs, symptomatic treatment and control should be adopted in a timely manner. This will achieve better weight loss results without causing any harm to your body.
