Can I use acupuncture on my cervical spine during menstruation?

In our lives, many women feel abdominal pain during menstruation, so some women choose to use acupuncture to relieve pain during menstruation. In fact, acupuncture can relieve pain during menstruation, but it is not feasible to treat other diseases, because it is very likely that the acupuncture points will cause heavy menstrual flow in women. So can acupuncture be used on the cervical spine during menstruation? Let's take a look below.

During the first two days of menstruation, the endometrium is in a ruptured state, and acupuncture at this time can easily aggravate the degree of rupture, resulting in excessive menstrual flow and even metrorrhagia. Therefore, it is recommended to stop acupuncture during the first two days of menstruation and continue the acupuncture treatment afterwards.

It is generally recommended that you avoid acupuncture near your menstrual period, as it may lead to abnormal bleeding during menstruation. Therefore, it is recommended to be cautious, pay attention to the follow-up ultrasound examination, try to avoid menstrual period treatment, and rest.

Acupuncture should not be performed during menstruation, as it will not only cause repeated menstruation, but it will also easily cause bleeding and infection. Because the platelet concentration in the blood decreases during menstruation, it is easy to bleed and difficult to stop bleeding. Suggestions: Therefore, it is necessary to avoid trauma caused by acupuncture, surgery, etc.

Menstruation, also known as the menstrual cycle, is a physiological cycle that occurs between some fertile female humans and other hominins. Medically speaking, only the reproductive cycle experienced by primates (including humans) is called menstruation. The reproductive cycle of other mammals is called the estrus cycle. After women enter puberty, their ovaries gradually mature and begin to secrete female hormones. The endometrium changes accordingly, resulting in menstruation. Girls usually have their first menstruation at around 12 years old. The first menstrual period is called menarche. For normal female menstruation, the average menstrual cycle is 28 days, the duration of menstruation is generally 3-5 days, and the amount of menstrual blood is 30-120 ml, most of which are around 50 ml.
