Acidic foods have astringent and astringent effect, which makes the blood stagnant and is not conducive to the smooth flow and discharge of menstrual blood. Therefore, patients with dysmenorrhea should try to avoid eating such foods during menstruation. Acidic foods include rice vinegar, hot and sour vegetables, kimchi, pomegranate, green plum, bayberry, strawberry, carambola, cherry, sour jujube, mango, apricot, plum, lemon, etc.

Patients with adenomyosis should not be greedy for cold food. Women with poor gastrointestinal function should avoid eating raw, cold foods before and during menstruation, such as cold drinks, raw cold dishes, crabs, snails, clam meat, leeches, pears, persimmons, watermelons, bananas, bitter melon, mangosteen, mung beans, cucumbers, water chestnuts, grapefruits, oranges, etc., so as to avoid cold stagnation and blood stasis which may aggravate dysmenorrhea.

Patients with adenomyosis should try to eat less lamb, shrimp, crab, eel, salted fish, black fish, etc.

Patients with adenomyosis should avoid eating foods that are hot, coagulant, or contain hormones, such as longan, red dates, donkey-hide gelatin, and royal jelly.

For middle-aged women of childbearing age, if dysmenorrhea worsens secondary to symptoms such as menorrhagia, prolonged menstruation, and uterine enlargement, adenomyosis should be considered and medical attention should be sought promptly.
