What to do if you have heavy menstrual bleeding

Menstruation mainly refers to vaginal bleeding in women, and as time goes by, sometimes the menstruation may come more, and sometimes it may come less. Of course, if the menstrual flow is too heavy, like a "fountain", it is obviously related to the current condition of the body and may be caused by an illness, so you must be vigilant. So what to do if you have heavy menstrual period?

1. Supplement 18 mg of iron every day. Beef, fish, and pork contain large amounts of iron, while whole grains, beans, oats, and dark green vegetables also contain small amounts of iron.

Here is a little secret: cooking in an iron pan can also help you absorb more iron; remember to eat it with foods high in vitamin C, such as tomatoes, oranges, and tangerines, to help the body absorb it.

It is recommended not to take iron supplements without authorization. Iron supplements need to be taken under the guidance of a doctor.

2. In addition, if you want to improve the symptoms of excessive menstrual flow, you should adjust before and after menstruation!

Premenstrual period: Black-bone chicken stewed with angelica and poria
