1, cleanliness and hygiene
During menstruation, keep the vulva clean, scrub the vulva with warm water every night, and it is not advisable to take a tub bath or a sitz bath. It is better to take a shower. Sanitary napkins and paper should be soft and clean, and it is best to sterilize them at high pressure; Menstrual belts and underwear should be changed and washed frequently to reduce the stimulation of blood stains on vulva and inner thighs. After washing, they should be scalded with boiling water and dried in the sun for later use. Sterilized gauze towels and toilet paper should be used for menstrual cushions. Wipe from front to back after defecation to prevent dirt from entering female private parts, causing female private parts inflammation or uterine inflammation.
2. Have a good diet
Because of the dissipation of menstrual blood, menstrual period needs more adequate nutrition; Diet should be light and mild, easy to digest, not overeating and cold, because cold causes blood coagulation, which is easy to cause dysmenorrhea, and menorrhagia or sudden interruption. Do not overeat spicy, fragrant, dry and harmful food to reduce uterine bleeding. Drink more boiled water, eat more fruits and vegetables, and keep your stool unobstructed.

Emotional abnormality is one of the important pathogenic factors, and the influence of mental emotion on menstruation is particularly obvious. Therefore, during menstruation, we must maintain emotional stability, feel comfortable, and avoid bad stimulation to prevent irregular menstruation.
4. Combination of work and rest
During menstruation, you can work and study as usual, and engage in general physical labor, which can promote the blood circulation in the pelvic cavity, thus reducing the pain in the back and discomfort in the lower abdomen. However, heavy physical labor and strenuous exercise should be avoided, because overwork can cause excessive congestion in the pelvic cavity, causing menorrhagia, prolonged menstrual period, abdominal pain and backache. And ensure enough sleep to keep full of energy.
5. Avoid sexual intercourse
During the menstrual period, the endometrium exfoliates and bleeds, there are fresh wounds in the uterine cavity, and the cervix is slightly opened, so the acidity of female private parts decreases and the ability to defend against germs is greatly reduced. When having sex at this time, bacteria will be brought in, which will easily lead to inflammation of reproductive organs. If the fallopian tube is inflamed and adhered and blocked, it can also cause infertility. It can also cause prolonged menstrual period and even metrorrhagia. Therefore, women should prohibit sexual intercourse during menstruation to prevent infection.
6. Don't use drugs indiscriminately
Generally, women feel a little uncomfortable during menstruation, which can disappear by themselves after menstruation, so as not to interfere with their normal process. If you have unbearable abdominal pain or excessive bleeding for a long time, you need to be examined and diagnosed by a doctor. Don't throw medicine and bait yourself.
