What causes dizziness during menstruation?

I am 26 years old this year, and this is not the first or second time I have had my period. But I don’t know what happened this time. I felt particularly dizzy and a little bit like vomiting. This has never happened before. What happened? Is it because I washed my hair during my period? It’s so annoying. I feel dizzy all day. Why do I feel dizzy during my period?

It may be a cold or one of the flu symptoms. It has something to do with washing your hair.

First, the body's resistance is weakest during the menstrual period when menstruation begins. Various external evils can easily invade the body;

Second, the water temperature for washing your hair makes the scalp hair follicles open. This creates a place for the cold wind to invade. That is, the wind evil and cold evil invade the body from the head.

Third, women of childbearing age should avoid shade when washing their hair. In addition to not washing or washing your hair less during menstruation, you should also pay attention to:

1. Don’t wash your hair at night;

2. Don’t wash your hair on consecutive rainy days;

3. Pay attention to the time. It is also not suitable to wash your hair from the time of Shen to the time of Chen the next day after Mid-Autumn Festival and before Mid-Spring.

4. During the time period above, it was not suitable to wash your hair before going out yesterday.

Fourth, pay attention to the influence of water temperature and hair dryer. That is, it cannot differ too much from the ambient temperature.

How to deal with it? Here are some suggestions:

1. If it is convenient and you can still move, it is recommended that you go to a regular hospital to see a doctor with someone accompanying you. Gynecology department of a traditional Chinese medicine hospital, TCM department in other types of hospitals, or TCM physicians in gynecology departments. Here are a few things to keep in mind when you go:

2. Drink some room temperature salt and sugar water before going out;
