Patient's question:
A 24-year-old woman has recently been experiencing discomfort, which has gradually worsened. She is asking: Are there any fruits that should be avoided during menstruation?Doctor's answer:
Fruits with cold or cool properties should be consumed in moderation, as they can cause poor blood circulation and allow cold pathogens to penetrate the body. Examples include pears, bananas, persimmons, cantaloupe, mangoes, watermelons, kiwis, pomelos, mulberries, dragon fruits, oranges, and strawberries. Then, patients need to follow a balanced diet, maintain regular sleep patterns, regulate physical and mental health, and pay attention to maintaining a positive mood in daily life. It is also important to eat more light, soft, and liquid foods, drink plenty of water, and consume more vegetables and fruits.
