But is donkey-hide gelatin suitable for women to take during menstruation? This is a question worth pondering. Below is some information collected by the editor.

Donkey-hide gelatin is a holy medicine for blood tonic and hemostasis. It has a good restorative and regulating effect on irregular menstruation caused by blood deficiency in women.

If the dosage is too large, it will also cause fluctuations in menstruation, such as heavy or reduced menstrual flow; (It is not recommended to take donkey-hide gelatin during menstruation, but it can be taken by those with uterine fibroids.

Some people believe that donkey-hide gelatin is warm and that you can eat some during menstruation to replenish qi and blood, but many people also believe that you should not eat donkey-hide gelatin during menstruation. Which view is correct? Donkey-hide gelatin is something that can promote blood circulation and stop bleeding. If you have a heavy menstrual flow, you can take donkey-hide gelatin because it has the effect of replenishing blood and stopping bleeding, but it is best not to take it during menstruation.

Therefore, you should harmonize qi and blood in time before menstruation, and avoid eating too hot food. You can take some iron maple bucket, rice cake, yam (to strengthen the spleen and stomach), angelica, lotus root (to supplement iron), and kelp (to resolve phlegm, promote diuresis, and promote bowel movements and detoxification).
