Things to note during menarche: Keep these points in mind

When a girl has her first menstruation, it will cause a great physical and psychological impact. If relevant preparations are made in advance, this impact can be minimized. For example, parents should give their children enough care and teach them relevant physiological knowledge.

Note 1: Be mentally prepared. Menarche is a sign of entering puberty, so there is no need to worry. At the same time, be fully mentally prepared for the discomforts that may occur during the first menstruation, such as low back pain, drowsiness, fatigue, and weakness, to avoid panic and increase the psychological burden.

Note 2: Avoid strenuous exercise. During menarche, you should avoid participating in strenuous sports, long-distance cycling and running, etc., so as to avoid excessive fatigue that may lead to a decrease in resistance and induce colds and other diseases.

Note 3: Pay attention to cleanliness. The lower body should be washed frequently during menstruation, because the body's resistance decreases during this stage. If you do not pay attention to cleanliness, it is very easy to cause bacterial infection and fever.

Note 4: For product safety and strong self-protection, use high-quality sanitary napkins. Never use inferior products just to save money, and never use ordinary toilet paper and straw paper that are not strictly disinfected as a substitute.

Note 5: Get enough sleep and rest, ensure adequate sleep time, and eat nutritious meals that are easy to digest and absorb. This is of great benefit to strengthening your physical fitness and restoring your energy.

Note 6: Avoid contact with cold water. Avoid contact with cold water, keep warm, and it is best not to swim.
