Be careful about eating bitter foods during menstruation to prevent dysmenorrhea

Dysmenorrhea is a major disease that troubles many women and is also an early symptom of many gynecological diseases. How to prevent dysmenorrhea is a concern for all female friends. Experts remind you that paying attention to your daily eating habits is the key to preventing and treating dysmenorrhea.

Bitter foods have the effect of clearing away heat. Moderately increasing the intake of bitter foods can eliminate fatigue, strengthen the spleen and stimulate the appetite. However, women during menstruation should not eat too much bitter food. Because most bitter foods are cold or cooling, excessive consumption during menstruation can cause the meridians to stagnate and blood circulation to be blocked, which can lead to gynecological diseases such as menstrual disorders, dysmenorrhea, and amenorrhea.

Even in the hot season, bitter foods such as bitter melon, bitter herbs, buckwheat, green tea, lettuce, and bitter tea should not be consumed too much during menstruation. Especially for those who suffer from cold dysmenorrhea, they should not only stay away from bitter foods during menstruation, but also eat less even during non-menstrual period to effectively prevent dysmenorrhea. Instead, they should eat some warm, easily digestible and nutritious foods and drink more warm water to keep bowel movements smooth and reduce pelvic congestion. The body's demand for iron is greater during menstruation, so they should eat more lean meat, egg yolks, and animal offal (such as liver, heart, kidney, etc.) during menstruation to prevent anemia caused by iron deficiency.

In order to prevent dysmenorrhea, you should also eat more foods rich in magnesium, with seaweed being the first choice. In addition, eating foods rich in vitamin E, such as nuts, can also help relieve menstrual discomfort. I hope you can maintain good living habits through the above content and effectively prevent dysmenorrhea.
