Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I also feel extremely cold and afraid of the cold. Could you please tell me if taking a bath during menstruation is harmful to the body?Doctor's answer:
During the menstrual period, it is best to avoid washing your hair. If you must wash it, try to do so in the middle of the day. After washing your hair, make sure to dry it immediately.During the menstrual period, it is important to keep warm, which means avoiding air conditioning as much as possible. In air-conditioned rooms, wear more clothes. Avoid cold drinks, as drinking ice water can prevent dirty blood from flowing out smoothly.
The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects a woman's physical health but can also lead to the development of gynecological conditions. Therefore, it is advisable to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for a routine check-up. Once the cause is identified, symptomatic treatment should be administered. In daily life, pay attention to dietary adjustments, consuming light and easily digestible foods. Avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
