Can I have double eyelid surgery during my period?

Double eyelid surgery is not an ordinary minor operation. The principle of the operation is to use traumatic or invasive medical technology to perform plastic surgery on the human eye. Women should not undergo this type of surgery during menstruation.

The harm of double eyelid surgery during menstruation to the body

Under normal circumstances, blood clots will form quickly on the wound after plastic surgery. When women are menstruating, the precursor activators of plasminogen in their blood increase to the maximum value, which will destroy the blood clots in the surgical wound and cause bleeding, or prolong the bleeding time. In addition, it may also allow bacteria to take advantage of the opportunity to enter and cause wound infection.

How long after menstruation can I get double eyelids?

There are fibrin with coagulation effect and plasminogen precursor activator with hemolysis effect in human blood. Only when these two substances are kept in balance can the blood flow normally. During menstruation, the amount of precursor activators in women's blood and uterus increases greatly, which can cause periodic uterine bleeding. In order to prevent wound infection after double eyelid surgery, it is recommended to perform the surgery three days after the menstruation stops.

What are the taboos during menstruation

1. Avoid dyeing your hair during menstruation

The bleaching agents and para-dyes in hair dyes may be related to bladder cancer, blood tumor cancer, and endometrial cancer. Although the carcinogenicity of hair dyes has not yet been determined, because there are more than 100,000 pores on the scalp, these chemicals are absorbed very quickly. Especially when women are menstruating, the body's resistance is weakest. During this period, you should avoid dyeing your hair to prevent adverse changes in cells.

2. Avoid wearing tight clothing

Because wearing tight clothing is linked to the development of endometriosis, it is best not to wear tight clothing during your period. If women often wear tight underwear, especially during menstruation, it is easy for menstrual blood to flow out poorly, and the pelvic and abdominal pressure will change suddenly when taking off and putting on tight underwear, which can easily cause menstrual blood to flow back, eventually causing symptoms of menstrual back pain and abdominal pain, and even leading to infertility.

3. Avoid taking excessive medication during menstruation

Many people mistakenly believe that they lose a lot of blood during menstruation, so they want to replenish their blood. In fact, adding rice wine to medicinal foods to help blood circulation, or Chinese herbal medicines that promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis will cause an increase in menstrual blood volume. Therefore, taking tonic medicine during menstruation is the wrong time. The correct golden period for taking tonic medicine is one week after the end of menstruation.
