What should I pay attention to when I have anal spasms during menstruation?

It is normal for women to have menstruation, because women's bodies also need metabolism, so menstruation can help expel garbage and waste from the body and keep the body clean. However, during this special period of menstruation, many women will experience some physical discomfort, such as anal spasm pain during menstruation. Therefore, women who experience this situation should pay attention to the following matters in their diet.

1. Avoid spicy and sour foods

During menstruation, women are prone to fatigue, poor appetite, and weakened digestive function. Therefore, they should pay attention to eating light foods and eating more easily digestible foods. Try to avoid eating sour or irritating foods, such as sauerkraut, hawthorn, vinegar, chili, pepper, mustard, etc.

2. Avoid cold food and eat warm food

In traditional Chinese medicine, it is believed that "blood flows when it is hot, and stagnates when it is cold." Eating raw or cold food during menstruation will affect digestion and easily damage the body's yang energy, leading to internal cold. The stagnation of coldness will cause menstrual blood to flow poorly, resulting in low menstrual blood volume or dysmenorrhea. Even in the hot summer, do not eat raw or cold food during menstruation.

In addition, it is better to eat warm food during menstruation. You can eat foods such as coix seed, kelp, coix seed, sorghum rice, lamb, apples, etc., and eat less pears, water chestnuts, water chestnuts, winter melon, kale and other foods.

3. Prevent iron deficiency by combining meat and vegetables

Iron is an essential trace element for the human body. It not only participates in the synthesis of hemoglobin and many enzymes, but also plays an important role in immunity, intelligence, aging, energy metabolism, etc. Women tend to lose a lot of iron during menstruation, so it is very important to supplement iron.

Foods such as lean meat, fish, animal blood, and animal liver contain large amounts of iron, have high biological activity, and are easily absorbed by the human body. In addition, soybeans and spinach contain plant iron, but the absorption rate is very low. Therefore, women should pay attention to the combination of meat and vegetables during menstruation and eat appropriate amounts of animal food to meet the body's iron needs during menstruation.
