What problems may occur during menstruation

Menstruation accompanies women for most of their lives, and most women will have various problems during their menstrual period. These problems, big and small, often cause us a lot of trouble. So what are the factors related to breast pain, general fatigue, and mental tension that occur during menstruation? Many women will experience different symptoms before and after menstruation. Let’s learn about them today.

It is normal to experience headaches, breast tenderness, fatigue, tension, general weakness, mental depression or irritability, restlessness, insomnia, pelvic heaviness, abdominal pain, diarrhea, dull low back pain, nasal congestion, edema and other symptoms during and before menstruation. The symptoms will disappear naturally after menstruation. No special treatment is required if there are no other abnormal symptoms. Pay attention to rest during menstruation and do not eat raw, cold, or irritating foods.

The symptom of leg soreness during menstruation is "soreness and discomfort" in traditional Chinese medicine. According to traditional Chinese medicine, there are two types of this disease. One is liver and kidney deficiency. During menstruation, menstrual blood flows into the uterus, causing tendons and veins to become deficient and malnourished. This is what traditional Chinese medicine calls "pain due to lack of nourishment." Another situation is that there is phlegm and dampness blocking the body. Before menstruation, the stagnation becomes worse, and the tendons and veins become more blocked, caused by the blockage.

It is recommended to treat this disease with traditional Chinese medicine, taking dialectical treatment to distinguish between deficiency and excess. If there is deficiency, take products that nourish the liver and kidneys and promote blood circulation and dredge the collaterals. If there is phlegm and dampness blocking the body, take products that promote blood circulation and dredge the collaterals, and resolve phlegm and dredge the collaterals. Once the stasis is removed, the symptoms will improve.

Also, please note that you should not eat raw or cold food one week before your period (this is something you must pay attention to). For people with normal menstruation, there is nothing wrong with eating raw or cold food before or during menstruation, but for people with irregular menstruation, you must pay attention to this. When your period comes, drink a cup of boiled water soaked with brown sugar every day. It is best not to overwork yourself during menstruation.

In addition, everyone should also note that a person’s mood and stress will affect the normality of menstruation, so try not to let yourself be too depressed. It is best not to use cold water when you are menstruating. Generally speaking, you can use cold water when you are menstruating, but for people with irregular menstruation, it is best not to use cold water.

During menstruation, you should also pay attention to keeping warm, avoid cold, cold, raw, and cold stimulation to prevent the invasion of cold evil; pay attention to rest, reduce fatigue, strengthen nutrition, and strengthen physical fitness; you should try to control violent mood swings, avoid strong mental stimulation, and keep a happy mood; you should avoid excessive sexual intercourse at ordinary times, and sexual life is absolutely prohibited during menstruation.

Women must learn how to love themselves. Whenever menstruation comes, as long as we pay a little attention to it, we can avoid many problems. For example, during menstruation, we should eat more fruits and vegetables, drink more water, pay attention to rest, ensure enough sleep, and keep warm. These will help us have a healthy menstrual period.
