Menstruation is a special physiological period that every woman will experience.

Can I have a blood test to check liver function during menstruation? For women, general examinations should be avoided during the menstrual period. Women's physiological conditions such as menstruation and pregnancy can affect the results of blood tests, so women should not undergo gynecological examinations, routine blood tests, liver function tests, etc. before and after menstruation. It is also best to do breast infrared examination one week after the menstrual period ends. However, if sex hormone testing is to be performed, blood should be collected on the third day of menstruation to reflect the basic levels of various indicators in the early follicular period. Things to note before liver function tests 1. Liver function tests must be performed on an empty stomach, otherwise the chemical reaction produced after food enters the body will affect the accuracy of the test results. Therefore, you need to fast within 8 to 12 hours before the liver function test to avoid affecting the results and causing misdiagnosis. 2. It is best not to eat too greasy or spicy food the night before the liver function test. Such food can significantly increase the blood lipid test. Therefore, it is best to refrain from eating high-fat food 10 hours before blood collection. 3. It is advisable to eat some light food before the liver function test; it is best not to eat foods rich in carotene and lutein, because they may make the serum yellow and affect the jaundice index measurement results. 4. Pay attention to the medication you take before checking liver function. For example, drugs such as Atapine and vitamin D will have a certain impact on the jaundice index. 5. If you have a cold before the liver function test, it is best to wait 7 days after the cold is cured before the test, because the cold may affect the liver function test results. 6. Before the liver function test, make sure to get enough sleep, avoid strenuous exercise, and do not drink alcohol within 24 to 48 hours before the test. Strenuous exercise and alcohol can affect the value of transaminase. Things to note after blood collection: 1.
