Patient's question:
Is my period irregular? Is it because I didn't pay attention to the relevant issues? I don't understand.Doctor's answer:
Hello: Although menstruation is a normal physiological phenomenon, due to continuous vaginal bleeding during the period and weakened physical condition with reduced resistance, if proper care during menstruation is not taken, it may lead to menstrual disorders or other gynecological diseases.(1) Hygiene and Sanitation: During menstruation, it is important to maintain external genital cleanliness. Wash the external genital area with warm water every night, preferably with a shower. Use soft and clean sanitary pads and toilet paper; ideally, they should be sterilized under high pressure (commercially available). Change and wash menstrual belts and underwear frequently. After defecation, wipe from front to back to prevent dirty matter from entering the vagina, which could cause vaginitis or uterine inflammation.
(2) Maintaining a Positive Mood: The impact of emotional state on menstruation is particularly significant. During the period, it is essential to keep emotions stable and maintain a relaxed mood, avoiding negative stimuli to prevent menstrual irregularities.
(3) Adequate Sleep and Physical Activity: Moderate exercise during menstruation can promote pelvic blood circulation. Avoid strenuous exercise, as overexertion may cause excessive pelvic congestion, leading to heavy menstrual bleeding, prolonged periods, and abdominal or lower back pain. Ensure sufficient sleep.
(4) Diet: Due to the loss of blood during menstruation, adequate nutrition is even more important. The diet should be light, mild, and easy to digest. Avoid excessive consumption of cold foods, as coldness can cause blood to coagulate, easily leading to menstrual pain, heavy menstrual bleeding, or sudden interruptions. Avoid excessive spicy foods to reduce uterine bleeding. Drink plenty of water, eat more fruits and vegetables, and maintain regular bowel movements.
