Precautions for daily life during menstruation:

During the menstrual period, you should try to avoid swimming, bathing, and having sex. The sanitary napkins used must be clean and soft, otherwise they may promote the upward movement of bacteria. It enters the uterine cavity and causes inflammation. If not treated in time, it may lead to infertility in the future. As for the use of tampons (i.e. built-in tampons), in addition to cleaning and changing them frequently, it is best not to use them at night. Because the water absorption capacity of the sanitary tampon is limited, and it is impossible to replace it in time after sleeping soundly at night. At this time, the outflow of menstrual blood is blocked, and it is likely to flow back into the pelvic cavity and cause endometriosis. In addition, strenuous physical activity should be avoided during the menstrual period, as it is also one of the risk factors for endometriosis.

Some people think that stress in life, study, and sleep are not good, and autonomic nervous system dysfunction is also one of the many reasons. For some women, feeling exhausted may also cause other symptoms.
