Whether you can take medicine during menstruation is mainly related to the type of medicine, but it is generally not recommended to take medicine during menstruation. It is forbidden to take some anticoagulant drugs, hemostatic drugs, sex hormone drugs and traditional Chinese medicine with the function of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis during menstruation, because these drugs will affect menstruation. Other drugs that do not affect menstruation, such as cold medicine, can generally be taken normally, but it is generally recommended to take them under the guidance of a doctor.
Because women's physical resistance during menstruation is relatively low, it is recommended that women pay attention to rest during menstruation, don't be overworked, pay attention to supplementing nutrition, eat less cold and spicy food, try to maintain a good mood and get enough sleep, and try not to take medicine unless there are special circumstances.
