Why does my waist feel sore during my period?

Many women will experience symptoms of back and leg soreness during their menstrual period, which has a lot to do with excessive bleeding and endocrine disorders. Excessive bleeding and strong hormone secretion can easily disrupt the body's normal functioning balance, leading to muscle weakness and lack of energy. These are factors that affect back pain, so special attention should be paid during menstruation, more nutrition should be supplemented, and the body's immunity should be enhanced.

Things not to do during menstruation: 1. Beating the waist. When your waist and legs are sore, we relieve the discomfort by beating the sore muscles. Similarly, many women also habitually beat their waists to relieve the soreness during menstruation. But doing so would be a mistake. Gynecologists point out that the soreness and swelling in the waist during menstruation is caused by pelvic congestion. At this time, beating the waist will cause more congestion in the pelvis, which will in turn aggravate the soreness and swelling. In addition, beating the waist during menstruation is not conducive to the repair and healing of the wound after the endometrium is exfoliated, leading to increased bleeding and prolonged menstruation. 2. During menstruation , in addition to gynecological examinations and urine tests, it is also not suitable to do blood tests, electrocardiograms and other examinations. Because of the influence of hormone secretion at this time, it is difficult to obtain real data. 3. Tooth extraction : Few dentists will ask you whether you are menstruating before tooth extraction, but you must know that you cannot extract teeth during menstruation! Otherwise, not only will the amount of bleeding increase during tooth extraction, but there will also be a bloody smell in the mouth for a long time after the tooth extraction, affecting appetite and causing malnutrition during menstruation. This is because during menstruation, the endometrium releases more tissue activating substances, which activate the plasminogen in the blood into plasmin with anticoagulant effects. At the same time, the number of platelets in the body also decreases, so the body's coagulation ability is reduced and the hemostasis time is prolonged. 4. Use shower gel to clean the vagina . The vagina is prone to odor during menstruation, especially in summer. However, it is not healthy to use shower gel to clean the vagina while taking a bath, or to repeatedly wash the vagina with hot water. Instead, it is easy to cause vaginal infection and lead to itching. Because the female vagina is normally a slightly acidic environment, which can inhibit bacterial growth, but during menstruation the vagina becomes alkaline, the resistance to bacteria is reduced, and it is easy to be infected. If you do not use professional vaginal cleaning fluid or repeatedly wash with hot water, the alkalinity will increase. Therefore, you need to choose professional vaginal cleaning liquid to clean your vagina, especially during menstruation. 5. Drinking is also affected by the secretion of hormones in the body. The alcohol-degrading enzymes in women during menstruation decrease, so they get drunk easily. What's more serious is that in order to produce enzymes to help break down alcohol, the liver's burden is significantly increased. Therefore, drinking during this period will cause more serious damage to the liver than usual, increasing the possibility of causing liver dysfunction. 6. When women sing karaoke during menstruation , the capillaries in their vocal cords become congested and the walls of the vocal cords become more fragile. Singing karaoke for a long time or loudly at this time may cause the vocal cord capillaries to rupture due to the tension and high-speed vibration of the vocal cords, causing hoarseness of the voice, and may even cause permanent damage to the vocal cords, such as a lower or coarser voice. Professional doctors especially remind that women should be careful not to sing for a long time or loudly starting two days before their menstrual period. 7. It is not suitable to have sexual intercourse: During menstruation, the endometrium is peeled off and a wound is formed on the surface. If sexual intercourse occurs, it is easy for bacteria to be introduced and go back up into the uterine cavity, causing infection in the uterus. 8. It is not suitable to eat too salty food: Too salty food will increase the salt and water retention in the body. Before menstruation, it is easy to have symptoms such as headaches, emotional excitement and irritability.

It should be noted that when bathing in a public bath, you should also pay attention to the placement of your clothes to prevent cross infection, especially underwear. Do not mix it with other people's clothes. The basin and towel for washing the genitals must be dedicated, and the towels should be boiled and disinfected regularly to prevent infection. It is best to eat 200 grams of pig blood every day during menstruation.

Many women experience prolonged menstrual periods or increased menstrual flow. If it is not an organic disease, the increased blood loss may cause iron deficiency anemia over time, with symptoms such as general fatigue, difficulty breathing, pale complexion, and drowsiness to varying degrees.

The iron content in the human body is extremely small, but its nutritional function is very important. Once the human body is iron deficient, the red blood cells produced by the bone marrow will decrease, its ability to carry oxygen will decrease, and the above-mentioned discomforts will follow. Therefore, women should consume more iron-rich foods during menstruation. Animal foods such as animal blood, animal liver, livestock and poultry meat, fish, as well as plant foods such as black fungus, kelp, and sesame are rich in iron. Among the above-mentioned foods, animal foods are preferred because the iron in animal foods is heme iron, which is easily absorbed and utilized by the human body. Among animal foods, pig blood is the first choice. Because after pig blood is ingested by the human body, its iron absorption rate can be as high as over 22%, and the fat content in pig blood is very low, with only 0.4 grams of fat per 100 grams of pig blood. This undoubtedly relieves the worries of female friends who are pursuing a slim figure. Not only is the protein content in pig blood slightly higher than that in lean pork, but the ratio of amino acids contained in the protein is close to that of amino acids in the human body, making it very easy for the body to utilize. Therefore, the protein in pig blood is the easiest to digest and absorb among animal foods, and is especially suitable for female friends to eat.

There are many ways to cook pig blood. It can be stir-fried or made into soup, with soup being the most common method. The specific method is: rinse 500 grams of pig blood, add a small amount of green onion, ginger, and rice wine, stir-fry in a pan, add appropriate amount of water and boil until cooked, add a small amount of salt and MSG, and it is ready to eat. Although pig blood is good for replenishing blood, the more the better. It is appropriate to consume 150 to 200 grams per day during menstruation, and 2 to 3 times a week under normal circumstances. Eating too much pig blood will cause a feeling of sinking in the abdomen. Therefore, patients with gastroptosis are advised to eat it in small amounts. If you suffer from dysentery, diarrhea and other diseases, do not eat pig blood. In order to avoid affecting the test results, you should avoid eating pig blood in the three days before doing a routine stool test.
