Sleepless nights before your period

Menstruation is a physiological phenomenon in which all healthy women's body tissues grow and develop, and the uterine wall falls off and is periodically discharged from the body every month. Depending on the physical constitution, the response to menstruation is different. Some are reflected in their appetite and have special preferences for diet, while others are manifested in their mood and are very irritable. So what is the reason for sleepless nights before menstruation?

All normal reactions before menstruation

1. Premenstrual headaches should be multifunctional and not caused by any symptoms of internal organs. If you often have premenstrual headaches, you should first get checked to rule out some diseases that may cause headaches.

2. The key cause of premenstrual diarrhea is spleen and kidney deficiency. According to Chinese medicine, the spleen is responsible for digestion and assimilation, while the kidney is the gateway to the stomach and is responsible for urination and defecation. During the onset of menstruation, the spleen and kidney become weaker, resulting in diarrhea.

3. Every time when menstruation comes, there will be dizziness and blurred vision symptoms, and the symptoms will occur with the menstrual cycle. According to traditional Chinese medicine, deficiency of both Qi and blood, deficiency of Yang, and damp phlegm are the causes of the disease.

4. Breast pain before, during, and after the menstrual period is mostly caused by internal injuries caused by the seven emotions, liver depression and qi stagnation, and poor blood and qi circulation.

5. The incidence of edema during menstruation is not low. It is mostly caused by spleen and yin deficiency and excessive fire, and may also be caused by qi deficiency and blood stasis.

6. Before the menarche, it is easy to experience irritability, sadness, crying, or depression and insomnia. Experts believe that liver depression and qi stagnation are the main reasons, and some are also due to excessive worry.

What are the effects of menstruation on women?

1. Only women with normal menstruation can get pregnant, and their skin is relatively delicate and lustrous. Women in menopause also hope that their menstrual periods can be increased so that they look younger.

2. Regular menstruation happens to consume too much iron. Avoid excessive iron accumulation in the human body, which can easily cause an imbalance in iron metabolism.

3. During the monthly menstrual period, women can withstand the severe blow of unexpected excessive blood loss better than men. New blood can be produced more quickly to replace lost blood.

4. Estrogen has a protective effect on cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases! Women have a stronger ability to resist diseases because of the protection of menstruation, so women's life expectancy is longer than men.

5. Menstruation can be said to be women’s “old friend”. A woman has an average of 400 menstrual periods in her lifetime. If each menstrual period lasts about 5 days, it is estimated that there are 67 months, which means that a woman spends more than 5.5 years in her menstrual period in her lifetime.

Menstruation is an important part of women's reproductive health. Women should understand the basic medical care before and after the menstrual period, observe their own body reactions before, during and after the menstrual period, and be aware of any abnormal physical and mental health conditions that occur. Try to reduce excessive fatigue, staying up late, or unhealthy sexual life before and after your menstrual period, and take good care of your own health.
