What happens if you drink alcohol during your period?

Patient's question:

Sure, I can help with that. Please provide the content you want to be translated.

Doctor's answer:

Before and during menstruation, women are affected by hormonal secretion, which reduces the activity of enzymes in the body and decreases the ability to metabolize alcohol. As a result, alcohol is not easily excreted from the blood but transforms into harmful "acidic substances" for the body. To eliminate these acidic substances, the liver must continuously produce enzymes. This ultimately increases the burden on the liver and raises the likelihood of liver dysfunction.
