Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Hello, during the menstrual period, it is advisable not to eat cold and raw foods. Pears belong to the category of cold and cool fruits, and coldness is not beneficial for menstruation. Cold properties tend to contract, stagnate, and easily lead to poor blood flow, which can cause blood stasis. Long-term consumption can easily lead to menstrual cramps. It is not recommended to eat pears during the menstrual period.
