In autumn and winter, because the weather is relatively dry, many people are prone to dry mouth. When our mouth is dry, we must not lick it with our tongue. If we lick it with our tongue, it will only become drier. We can apply some lip balm to effectively avoid dry mouth. If pregnant women have dry mouth, it may be related to the body's endocrine system. So what is the matter with pregnant women's dry mouth? 1. The climate is too dry The main component of the lips is mucous membrane, which has no oil secretion and is prone to dryness. If the climate is too dry, there is less moisture in the air, the evaporation rate of moisture on the lips is faster, and the lips are prone to dryness. 2. Caused by lack of water Dry lips may be caused by not drinking enough water. If you drink less water, the water content in your cells will decrease. If the water cannot be restored quickly and replenished in time, your lips will easily become dry. The average adult needs about 2000 ml of water a day. 3. Lack of vitamins in the body Sufficient vitamins in the body can help keep the lips moisturized. If there is a lack of vitamins, white secretions will appear at the corners of the mouth and the corners of the mouth will begin to crack. Generally, we can eat more fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins, such as pears, water chestnuts, Chinese cabbage, rapeseed, bean sprouts, and white radish. 4. Diet is too spicy and greasy If you often eat spicy and greasy food in winter, it is easy to cause your body to get inflamed, which will also consume a lot of water in the body. If you do not replenish water in time, dry lips are likely to occur. In addition, for people with Yin deficiency and excessive fire, the supplementary water cannot be absorbed and utilized in a timely and effective manner, which can also easily cause dry lips. 5 Bad Habits Bad habits in life can also cause dry lips. For example, if you like to lick your lips or tear your lips with your hands or bite them with your teeth after they are chapped, it may damage your lips, accelerate the evaporation of moisture on your lips, and make your lips become drier and drier. 6. Allergy Many women will deliberately supplement vitamin B12 after pregnancy, but too much B12 may cause cobalt allergy, which manifests as chapped lips. Attention should be paid to finding the cause of the disease and treating it accordingly. Eat more vegetables and fruits, avoid picky eating, and take appropriate vitamin supplements. |
