Why are lips dry during menstruation

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'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Why do lips get dry during menstruation?

Doctor's answer:

The dryness of the lips may be related to the environment or to the individual's physical constitution. For example, dry weather or insufficient water intake can both lead to dry lips. Additionally, some diseases, such as Sj?gren's syndrome, can manifest as dry lips. It is recommended to drink more water regularly. If chronic dry mouth persists, it may be due to yin deficiency. Under the guidance of a local traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, some nourishing yin fluids herbal remedies can be used to regulate the condition.
