Menstrual temperature

Menstruation is a behavior that every woman will experience, but women will experience many adverse effects during their menstrual period, such as loss of appetite, depression, or lower abdominal pain, cold sweats, etc. Faced with this situation, people need to pay special attention and understand in detail the manifestations during the menstrual period so as to provide better care. Does body temperature change during menstruation? This is a question that many people have. Let me explain it below.

Does body temperature rise before menstruation?

The female menstrual cycle is divided into the menstrual phase, the proliferative phase and the secretory phase. Ovarian ovulation usually occurs 14 days before the next menstrual period. The basal body temperature is lower than normal before ovulation, and the body temperature continues to drop by 0.1-0.2℃ during ovulation. However, the progesterone level begins to rise after ovulation, and progesterone can excite the body temperature regulation center, causing the female basal body temperature to rise by 0.3-0.5℃. Therefore, it is the luteal phase, that is, the secretory phase, that causes the body temperature to rise, not the menstrual phase. The progesterone level is at a low limit during the menstrual phase, so if conception does not occur, the body temperature will drop to the level of the follicular phase.

How to take care of yourself before your period

Maintenance 1: Pay attention to keeping warm. The ability to resist cold decreases during menstruation, and catching cold can easily cause diseases, such as scanty or sudden cessation of menstruation. Therefore, you should avoid getting wet in the rain, wading in water, and washing your feet with cold water; eat less or no frozen food or drinks.

Maintenance 2: The diet is also suitable for eating more green onions, fungus, peanuts, walnuts, dates, longans, and roses during menstruation. If you accidentally eat cold food during your menstrual period, or can't help eating ice, you can drink more brown sugar boiled ginger to balance the blood circulation in your body and promote blood flow. Eat less spicy food and more vegetables and fruits.

Maintenance three: Proper labor and exercise. It is not appropriate to do excessive physical labor or participate in strenuous sports activities during menstruation, but appropriate physical labor and exercise are beneficial. Maintenance four: Mental maintenance. Always keep a happy spirit. Appropriate participation in cultural and sports activities can divert the irritability and depression that occur during menstruation. Don't be too squeamish. Pay attention to maintenance and act as if nothing is wrong.
