What changes will happen to each part of the body during menstruation?
What have you experienced in various parts of your body during menstruation?
1, Constipation and abdominal distension
0 The gastrointestinal system will also change during menstruation. Many women face abdominal distension and constipation, so they should drink more boiled water and consume more than 25 grams of dietary fiber every day to maintain smooth feces.
2, coagulation function decreases
Compared with usual, coagulation function decreases during menstruation. Since endometrium releases a large amount of tissue activation substances, increases fibrinolytic enzyme content, and increases anticoagulant function, it is prone to bleeding.
3. Resistance decreases
Endocrine changes during menstruation, resistance decreases, and the risk of infection increases.
4, psychological or emotional abnormalities

What are the taboos during menstruation?
1. Drink too much espresso
Premenstrual syndrome should not drink beverages containing caffeine , especially espresso and strong tea, so as not to aggravate headaches, breast swelling, irritability, etc.
2. High-salt diet
. There will be mild or severe water and sodium retention 2 to 3 days before menstruation, which can prevent menstrual blood loss and consume body fluids. If you are still high in salt, you can aggravate water and sodium retention and lead to edema.
3, Bath bath
During menstruation, the cervical mouth opens, and the bath will cause microorganisms to invade the uterus through the private parts; it just so happens that the endometrium falls off during menstruation, and there are wounds on the surface, providing a breeding ground for bacterial growth, thereby inducing various gynecological inflammations and diseases. Therefore, you cannot bathe during menstruation, nor can you soak in hot springs or swim.
4, tooth extraction
0 Coagulation function during menstruation is reduced, and tooth extraction can increase bleeding. There is no scientific care after tooth extraction, and pathogenic bacteria can flow through the wound and follow the blood circulation, thereby inducing fatal sepsis. In addition, invasive examinations and surgeries should also avoid menstrual periods.
5. Drinking alcohol
Alcohol can promote blood vessel dilation and speed up blood circulation. Therefore, drinking alcohol during menstruation can increase bleeding and prolong menstrual period.
Warm reminder

You should consult a professional doctor when taking the medicine to ensure that you can use the medicine as appropriate when you benefit enough. During menstruation, you can choose to relax exercises, such as walking, practicing yoga, etc., which can promote the contraction and relaxation of the pelvic floor and abdominal muscles; but you cannot do strenuous exercises, such as jumping or racing, and strenuous confrontational competitions should also be avoided.
