What should you be alert to when you have a fever during menstruation?

During a woman's menstrual period every month, her body's resistance and immunity are at a low point. If she unfortunately catches a cold or fever at this time, she will feel more discomfort and pain. In addition to timely medication treatment, you should also pay attention to getting more rest and actively adjusting your diet to avoid prolonging the course of the disease due to improper care during the menstrual period.

Causes of fever during menstruation

Fever caused by tonsillitis is common in young children, but it does not rule out adolescent girls. Because the ovaries of adolescent girls are not fully developed, they do not know how to control their diet and keep warm during menstruation, so they are prone to fever caused by tonsillitis.

The main symptoms are: acute illness, chills, sore throat, and high fever, which usually last for 3 to 5 days.

The hot summer is a season that is prone to heatstroke, and women who are menstruating are even weaker and have poor resistance to the outside world. At this time, coupled with the "influence" of high temperatures, it is inevitable that they are prone to heatstroke and have symptoms such as fever, dizziness, nausea and vomiting.

Treatment method: After suffering from heatstroke, you can apply cooling oil, wind oil, etc. on the forehead and temples, or take Chinese medicine such as Ren Dan, Shi Di Shui, and Huoxiang Zhengqi Shui.

Women's immunity is low during menstruation, and the body is easily affected by cold, which causes the body temperature center to react and regulate, causing the body temperature to rise and fever to occur.

If you have a fever as high as 38.5℃ and lower abdominal pain during your menstrual period, you may have pelvic inflammatory disease or adnexitis. Pelvic inflammatory disease is a common gynecological disease. It can be divided into acute and chronic types, with chronic pelvic inflammatory disease being the most common. Acute pelvic inflammatory disease may cause serious consequences such as diffuse peritonitis, sepsis and even septic shock. If not given timely and effective treatment, it can easily turn into chronic pelvic inflammatory disease and affect women's physical and mental health.

In the season when viral colds are prevalent, female friends are also more likely to catch colds and fevers. This is because the menstrual period of each month is a time when women's bodies are relatively weak. If you are not careful at this time, you are likely to be infected with viruses, causing viral colds, resulting in symptoms such as fever, nasal congestion and runny nose, sore throat, headache, body aches, fatigue, etc.

Treatment measures for cold and fever during menstruation

If it is just a common cold with fever, it is recommended to:

1. Take Isatis Root and Bupleurum Root to relieve symptoms. You need to drink plenty of water and keep warm to get better.

2. During menstruation, the body's resistance is relatively reduced, so it is easy to catch a cold. You can use ibuprofen, Ganmaoling granules, etc.

3. Keep warm and avoid cold, eat less raw, cold, spicy and other irritating foods, exercise appropriately to improve the body's resistance.

If the fever is caused by cervicitis, endometriosis or inflammation, it is recommended to pay attention to hygiene, go to the hospital for diagnosis and then receive treatment, pay attention to rest, and do not take medicine at will.
