What happens if you eat spicy food during your period?

Every woman should strictly control her diet during her period, because women's bodies are very weak during this period, and they are prone to menstrual irregularities or dysmenorrhea if they are not careful. I believe most women should know that they must not eat too raw, cold or spicy food during menstruation, but some people still wonder, what will happen if they eat spicy food during menstruation?

1. Harm to the stomach and intestines: Eating too much spicy food will cause the capsaicin in peppers to severely irritate the gastrointestinal mucosa, easily causing stomach pain, diarrhea and other discomforts. It can also easily cause burning and stinging in the anus, induce gastrointestinal diseases, and even cause hemorrhoidal bleeding symptoms.

2. Inducing diseases: Women's body resistance decreases during menstruation. Eating spicy and irritating foods can not only easily cause physical discomfort, but also lead to a decrease in uterine resistance. If this continues for a long time, the uterus will be affected by bacteria and viruses, and the incidence of uterine diseases or other diseases will increase, which is not good for women.

3. Leading to menstrual disorders. Women’s immunity is very weak during menstruation. Eating too much spicy food at this time will stimulate the body and easily lead to endocrine disorders. It will also cause pelvic blood vessels to contract and cause too little menstrual blood flow. Long-term this will also lead to worsening dysmenorrhea symptoms or menstrual disorders, or even sudden amenorrhea.
