Can I take Chinese medicine during menstruation?

Traditional Chinese medicine is a kind of medicinal material with relatively strong medicinal properties. If we don’t know what diseases these traditional Chinese medicines are used to treat in our lives, it is best for us not to take them in our lives.

Chinese medicine is generally boiled twice, one bowl at a time and taken before meals, before noon and before afternoon or dinner.

During menstruation, it is mainly taboo to take very warm or cold medicines, or medicines that promote blood circulation. Most of the medicines for treating coughs are mainly for the lung meridian, and few have strong medicinal properties, so there is no effect. But you should keep warm, avoid spicy food, and strenuous exercise. If you have a cold constitution or a weak spleen and stomach, you should pay attention to whether Chinese medicine that clears heat and relieves fire is suitable for your constitution.
