What should I pay attention to during menstruation?

Menstrual diet should pay attention to the following points:

1. Increase nutrition intake: During menstruation, women consume a lot of body, so it is necessary to increase nutrition intake, especially iron, protein and vitamins. You can eat more red meat, fish, eggs, beans, green leafy vegetables and other foods.

2. Avoid greasy food: Too greasy food may aggravate menstrual discomfort, such as abdominal distension and abdominal pain. Try to choose light and digestible food.

3. Control caffeine and alcohol intake: Caffeine and alcohol may aggravate menstrual pain and mood swings. If you can't completely avoid it, you should also try to reduce your intake.

4. Keep enough water: During menstruation, the body may be dehydrated due to blood loss. Therefore, you must drink enough water every day.

5. Avoid foods that are too cold or too hot: foods that are too cold may cause uterine contraction and aggravate dysmenorrhea; Overheated food may cause gastrointestinal discomfort. Choose food with suitable temperature.

6. Avoid eating foods that may cause allergies, such as seafood and peanuts, because they may cause or aggravate menstrual discomfort.

7. Avoid excessive exercise: Although proper exercise helps to relieve menstrual discomfort, excessive exercise may aggravate symptoms. You should choose light and moderate exercise, such as walking and yoga.

The above suggestions are for reference only. Everyone's physical condition is different, and the specific diet adjustment should be based on personal situation and doctor's advice.
