Can I drink cassia seed tea during menstruation? What are the effects?

Recently I have fallen in love with drinking cassia seed tea. I wonder if it is ok to drink cassia seed tea during menstruation and what are the effects? I learned to drink cassia seed tea from my friends. My stomach is so good, and my friends told me to drink less. Cassia seed tea is bitter and cold and can hurt the stomach easily. I only drink a little at a time and only once every few days. If I want to drink it, I choose to drink it in the morning. I dare not drink it in the afternoon, so as not to suffer from insomnia at night. Can I drink Cassia Seed Tea when I have my period? What are the effects? I'll talk to you about it right away.

It is recommended not to drink Cassia seed tea during menstruation. Cassia seed is slightly cold in nature, which can easily lead to poor menstrual blood flow, too little menstrual blood, or even dysmenorrhea or amenorrhea. During menstruation, you should eat fresh and easily digestible food, and avoid eating raw, cold, and difficult-to-digest food. Eating raw or cold food during menstruation can not only hinder digestion, but also easily damage the body's yang energy, leading to poor menstrual blood flow, too little menstrual blood, and even dysmenorrhea and amenorrhea. Cassia seed tastes sweet, salty, bitter and slightly cold. It can clear away heat, improve eyesight, moisten the intestines and promote bowel movements. It is not suitable for people with weak spleen and stomach, or insufficient qi and blood.
