Although women generally have weaker physical conditions and reduced resistance during menstruation, they can still wash their hair and take a bath as long as the environment is warm. But special attention should be paid to not washing your hair for too long, as this will allow cold air to enter the body and affect the regularity of menstruation. It is best to take a shower during menstruation. In order to prevent bacteria from entering the uterus through the tub and causing inflammation, it is best not to take a tub bath during menstruation. 1. Western medicine believes that there is no medical basis for not washing your hair during menstruation, but Chinese medicine theory disagrees. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the head is the head of the six yang meridians and the uterus is the starting point of the Ren meridian. During menstrual period, blood circulation is inherently poor. Washing your hair will cause blood to concentrate in the head, affecting the blood circulation in the uterus, making it impossible for the blood in the uterus to be discharged smoothly, which can easily cause a decrease in menstrual blood volume or menstrual pain.2. On the other hand, since the pores on the hair roots are open, if you catch a cold at this time, it is easy to cause headaches, especially if you wash your hair at night or before going to bed. 3. Since night is yin and head is the first of six yang, when yin and yang are at odds, headaches will be more serious. If you go to bed immediately before your hair is completely dry, and your body's resistance and metabolism are low, all kinds of problems will definitely find you. 4. Scientists' research results also show that if you wash your hair during menstruation, the brain nerves will be stimulated and the uterus will contract. If the uterus contracts, the hormone secretion in the body will become disordered. If this situation accumulates over time, it will cause cell canceration and lead to gynecological cancers such as breast cancer and uterine cancer.5. Women's body resistance will be weaker during menstruation than usual. At this time, you must pay attention to maintenance. If you don't pay attention, it is likely to have a certain impact on the body. Therefore, it is best for female friends not to wash their hair during menstruation. If there are special circumstances, they cannot wash their hair in the first three days. Do not use cold water to wash your hair, but hot water. |
