Dark brown discharge before menstruation

Menstruation is a very normal physiological phenomenon for women, but it is also a time when problems are very likely to occur. Some women experience abnormalities during menstruation, while others experience abnormalities before and after menstruation. The situation is quite complicated. If you have dark brown discharge before your period, you need to determine the cause and combine it with other abnormalities in the body. Only a comprehensive judgment can lead to a conclusion. So, what is the cause of dark brown discharge before menstruation? Let’s take a look below.

Generally speaking, brown vaginal discharge before and during the first 1 or 2 days after menstruation is normal. This is because the brown discharge before menstruation is caused by the shedding of a small amount of endometrium. In addition, in a few cases, brown secretions are caused by luteal insufficiency. If female friends have no abdominal pain, yellow leucorrhea, odor or vulvar itching and other symptoms, they can continue to observe and do not need to worry too much.

What should I pay attention to during menstruation?

First of all, the most important thing to pay attention to during menstruation is to keep warm. Everyone knows that women's bodies are naturally colder, and many women have cold hands and feet in winter. This is a manifestation of insufficient qi and blood. It is especially important to keep warm during menstruation, otherwise if you catch a cold during menstruation, it will cause dysmenorrhea.

So, it is a basic requirement to wear more clothes than usual during menstruation. In pursuit of beauty, some women wear thin coats and short skirts without fear of the cold, but they don't know how much damage this will cause to their bodies. When you are young, you feel that your body can handle it and you don’t think it’s a big deal. But when you get older and your body starts to have one problem or another, it’s too late to regret.

Secondly, you should also be careful when bathing and washing your hair during menstruation. The bathing time should not be too long to avoid catching a cold, and hot water shower is best. It is best not to wash your hair in the two days before menstruation. Even if you need to wash your hair, you should do it at noon and in the evening. After washing, you should quickly dry your hair with a hot hair dryer instead of waiting for it to dry naturally.

Secondly, you should also pay attention to your diet during menstruation. Do you all know? You must not drink cold drinks during menstruation, such as ice cream, milk tea, etc. If you consume cold drinks during your menstrual period for a long time, it may even cause serious consequences such as menopause.

This is definitely not alarmist, there are indeed real cases. There was a girl who particularly liked to eat cold drinks, even during her menstruation. She ended up being in menopause for a year, and only after she found an old Chinese doctor and took some medicine to slowly regulate her body did she recover. Therefore, I hope everyone can control their appetite during these special days and never eat anything that should not be eaten.

Another thing you should not eat during menstruation is spicy food, such as barbecue, spicy food, hot pot, etc. Anyway, even if I want to eat these things during my period, I will firmly say "NO" to them!

You should not eat cold fruits during menstruation. Every time I see some articles saying that you should eat a light diet and eat more fruits and vegetables during menstruation, I really want to comment below that this is not true. Indeed, the diet during menstruation should be light, but fruits should not be eaten randomly, let alone eaten too much.

There are many people who hold this idea. For example, my cousin thinks that eating more bananas can prevent constipation, cleanse the intestines and stomach, and has many benefits. But she didn't know that bananas are cold in nature among fruits and are not suitable to be eaten during menstruation, otherwise it will cause problems such as dysmenorrhea. My idea is that eating one apple a day during menstruation is enough. Apples are neutral and contain many nutrients.
