At a certain age, women will experience menarche, and under normal circumstances, continuous bleeding will occur regularly for a few days every month. We call this condition menstruation. So, why does a woman bleed during her menstrual cycle?
The reason why there is bleeding during menstruation is mainly because the body's estrogen stimulates the endometrium during menstruation. The shedding of the endometrium forms menstrual blood, which flows out through the vagina. Menstruation is also a normal physiological period for women, so there is no need to worry too much.
So, what should be paid attention to during menstruation?
1. During menstruation, it is important to pay attention to local hygiene because bacteria are more likely to grow. The best way is to rinse the lower body with warm water every day and change underwear and sanitary pads frequently.
2. During menstruation, do not touch cold things. If we touch cold things during menstruation, it will cause certain changes in our body, and the ultimate result will be dysmenorrhea.
3. During menstruation, do not engage in intense exercise, let alone sexual intercourse. The reason for not engaging in intense exercise is that it can cause more bleeding, but it is advisable to exercise appropriately (such as walking) because it can promote blood circulation.
At the same time, during menstruation, it is important to maintain a happy mood and adequate sleep to prevent dysmenorrhea from causing us negative feelings and affecting our daily lives.
