What sleeping positions can relieve menstrual pain?

1. Menstrual pain refers to dysmenorrhea. Women can relieve dysmenorrhea by bending their knees or lying on their right side.

2. When you have obvious dysmenorrhea during menstruation, you can sleep with your knees bent to relax your abdominal muscles. The whole abdomen can maintain a certain temperature in a relatively closed environment, which can promote the increase of abdominal temperature, help accelerate blood circulation, and improve dysmenorrhea symptoms. In addition, sleeping on your side is also a better sleeping position. It is generally recommended to sleep on the right side. Because sleeping on the left side will cause pressure on the heart, thereby affecting the body's blood supply. Maintaining a right sleeping position is beneficial to the body's blood circulation, promotes the normal blood supply to organs, is conducive to the smooth discharge of menstruation and blood, and helps relieve the symptoms of dysmenorrhea.

3. Generally speaking, you are not required to maintain the same sleeping posture during menstruation, but you should avoid lying prone, otherwise it will cause compression on the uterus and affect the discharge of menstrual blood. You should also maintain personal hygiene during menstruation, take a bath regularly, change sanitary napkins frequently, and avoid menstrual infection.
