Can I drink burdock tea during menstruation?

Burdock tea is made from burdock, which is warm in nature, sweet in taste, and can clear the twelve meridians, remove the bad air from the five internal organs, and has the effects of regulating the body, removing dampness and cold, and promoting yang and relieving pain. During menstruation, women's bodies are in a state of qi and blood deficiency with relatively excessive blood loss, and they often experience symptoms such as fear of cold, cold uterus, and lower abdominal pain. Drinking some burdock tea during menstruation can promote blood circulation, enhance the body's immunity, and improve the symptoms of uterine cold.

1. Women often experience constipation during their menstrual period, and the main reason is related to the metabolism of progesterone. The tannic acid in green tea leaves has astringent properties, which can slow down intestinal peristalsis, causing stool to remain in the stomach and intestines, and can also aggravate the symptoms of constipation.

2. During the menstrual period, women often experience varying degrees of tension, anxiety, headaches, breast pain and other reactions due to changes in neuroendocrine regulation.

Therefore, female friends should avoid such reactions, control their mentality and not let their minds become overly excited.
