How should women deal with menstrual disorders?

Usually, when we talk about menstrual disorders, we are referring to a variety of diseases related to menstruation. For example, it is a general term for diseases such as dysmenorrhea, amenorrhea, etc. Menstrual disorders are also known as irregular menstruation. In addition to the disease causes, there are also human factors that cause this type of disease. So how do we respond?

1. Dietary considerations for the treatment of irregular menstruation

Oligomenorrhea refers to a menstrual disorder in which the amount of menstrual blood is significantly less than normal, or even stops with a single drop, or the menstrual period lasts less than 2 days and the amount is less than 20mL. Scanty menstruation is a common gynecological disease and a manifestation of irregular menstruation. Delayed menstruation means that the patient's menstrual cycle is delayed by more than 7 days compared to normal, and it is also a common menstrual disorder. The causes of scanty menstruation and delayed menstruation are similar in both Chinese and Western medicine. Western medicine generally believes that the reason for delayed menstruation or scanty menstruation is decreased ovarian function and imbalance in corpus luteum or estrogen secretion. It may be caused by the side effects of contraceptive products and weight loss products. Examination often shows chronic diseases such as chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, ovarian dysfunction, and endometrial thickening. Long-term low menstrual flow or delayed menstruation not only indicates a decline in fertility, but also indicates a decline in women's physical functions and the gradual formation of physiological premature aging. Therefore, timely treatment of such menstrual irregularities is of great significance.

1. Fruits: melons (watermelon, apple, cantaloupe, honeydew melon), oranges, pears, tomatoes, coconuts, carambolas, grapefruits, lychees, mangoes, bananas, longans, etc.

Please eat less raw, cold or dry fruits as much as possible, and avoid eating them during menstruation.

2. Cold drinks and frozen foods (pudding, jelly, etc.). (After 30 minutes, take less when it cools down.)

There are generally no restrictions on hot coffee and hot tea.

3. Vegetables: radish, water spinach, cabbage, bitter gourd, etc. These vegetables are usually added with onions, garlic, ginger, fermented black beans and other ingredients when they are cooked, so their coldness has been reduced, so the above vegetables can be eaten.

(II) Daily precautions for the treatment of irregular menstruation

2. After water activities or general exercise, please dry your body and put on clothes quickly, and do not stay in the wind; if you accidentally get caught in the rain, dry your hair as soon as possible and change clothes to keep warm; avoid water activities during menstruation.
