Remedies for getting caught in the rain during menstruation

There is more rain in the summer. If you are not prepared when going out, you may get caught in the rain accidentally. If your clothes get wet, you can go home in time to take a hot bath, boil a bowl of ginger soup, and change clothes to prevent your body from catching a cold. However, for many women, if they get caught in the rain during menstruation, it cannot be solved by taking a hot bath. Showering during menstruation is very harmful, so you must do these daily maintenance.

What should I do if I get caught in the rain during my period?

The purpose of women's menstrual care is to keep warm and avoid eating raw, cold and cold foods. So when you accidentally get caught in the rain, you must also pay attention to keeping warm.

After returning home, first change your wet clothes and take a hot bath. If conditions do not permit, you can wash your hair and soak your feet with hot water. The feet are the farthest part from the heart, so if the feet return to normal body temperature, the whole body will feel warm. Soaking your feet in hot water can improve local blood circulation, drive away the cold and promote metabolism.

Next, brew a cup of red ginger sugar water. Ginger is spicy and warm in nature, and is good at dispersing wind and cold. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that ginger is not only a panacea for vomiting, but also has a good effect in removing cold from the body. Brown sugar is warm in nature, sweet in taste, and enters the spleen. It has the effects of invigorating qi and blood, strengthening the spleen and warming the stomach, relieving pain, and promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. It is also helpful for women to have smooth menstruation, as it can warm the body, increase energy, activate qi and blood, and speed up blood circulation. The combination of ginger and brown sugar is beneficial for women who have been caught in the rain during menstruation to recover.

At the same time, clothes that have been exposed to rain should be disinfected in time, because rain carries various pollutants in the atmosphere. Sometimes the rain is so heavy that many people have to wade home, their bodies covered with rain water mixed with all kinds of dirt on the street. After returning home, you need to take off your clothes in time and separate them from other clothes. When washing, you must soak them in disinfectant to thoroughly sterilize them.

Daily care methods for women during menstruation

Daily care is important

Pay attention to rest and ensure adequate sleep, cleanse the skin with warm water 2-3 times a day. The cleansing products should be mild and preferably have a certain degreasing effect. You can also apply a layer of essence to balance oil secretion on the T-zone where there is more oil. Because the skin becomes more sensitive during menstruation and is prone to allergic reactions, you should avoid using too much cosmetics.

Pay attention to sun protection when going out

Chinese medicine gynecology experts remind us that strong sebum secretion during menstruation will not only cause sebum to block pores, but also easily form pigments, causing a large increase in black spots. During this period, the skin is easily affected by ultraviolet rays, so sun protection is particularly important.

Pay attention to the eye skin

Use cold cream to do eye massage around the eyes every night, gently draw circles around the eyes, then tap the eye sockets with your fingers and press the acupoints on the eye sockets. Wash off the cold cream after the massage. If your eyelids are swollen, soak two cotton pads in tea, then apply them on your eyelids and remove them after 10 minutes. This can eliminate eye fatigue, puffiness and dark circles during menstruation.

Pay attention to the dryness of the body

Traditional Chinese medicine reminds us that when taking care of your skin, one thing you must not ignore is the skin on your body, and the shower lotion you use for bathing should contain moisturizing ingredients.

A good mood and moderate exercise are better for health

Maintaining a stable mood and a good state of mind is the most effective way to care for your skin. At the same time, do some aerobic exercises that can promote metabolism to avoid gaining weight unknowingly during this period.

Pay attention to a balanced diet

Balanced nutrition is the key to health preservation in all seasons, especially during the menstrual period. During this period, you should consume a rich and balanced diet and drink plenty of water to replenish the body's nutrients and blood volume. Eating more foods containing magnesium and B vitamins, such as bananas, mineral water and animal liver, can improve metabolism. Drink plenty of water to replenish the lack of water in the body. Don't overeat just because you think you are in poor health due to blood loss. Instead, you should eat more iron-containing foods and protein that can improve iron absorption.
