1, the benefits of ovarian maintenance
Ovary is one of the important endocrine glands of women, and its main function is to secrete female hormones and produce eggs. For example, when a woman matures, she will secrete estrogen and progesterone, and under its influence, menstrual cramps will occur.
At the same time, estrogen can promote the development and maintenance of female reproductive organs and secondary sexual characteristics. It can be said that women can rejuvenate and the role of ovaries is indispensable. Poor ovarian function will affect estrogen secretion and sexual function, skin quality, skin color and women's body circumference, make the face yellow and swollen, and women's private parts dry, and enter the yellow-faced woman stage ahead of time, that is, aging is coming.
According to relevant data, there is a trend of premature ovarian failure, and the incidence rate is getting higher and higher. In the physical examination records of 1500 women randomly selected from an institution, it was found that 12 women entered menopause early because of poor ovarian health, and the population with osteoporosis symptoms such as bone pain, hunchback and short stature due to estrogen reduction accounted for 3% of the total. More than 90% women have never had an ovarian health examination, which makes the maintenance of ovarian function miss the best opportunity. Ke Mei Pre-pregnancy and Postpartum Care Center reminds many women of childbearing age to maintain their ovaries and improve their fertility.
2. The relationship between ovary and menstruation
Ovary plays a vital role in the female reproductive system, which not only has the reproductive function of reproducing offspring, but also produces the endocrine function of important female hormones. Menstruation only happens under the influence of hormones normally secreted by ovaries, and women's menstrual cycle is controlled by ovaries.
Generally speaking, women's menstrual flow and its cycle are relatively constant. When menstruation is abnormal, it means that there may be abnormal phenomena in the reproductive system. Therefore, female friends can often find some uterine or ovarian diseases from menstruation. In the event of irregular menstruation, female friends should deal with it as soon as possible to avoid dragging small problems into serious illnesses.
Even if the menstrual period comes on time every month, there is no problem with the menstrual amount and the color of the menstrual amount, it should be well maintained during the menstrual period to promote the discharge of dirty blood. Otherwise, menstrual blood is not completely discharged, and toxins are slowly accumulated, which may easily lead to diseases such as uterine fibroids and ovarian cysts. Therefore, menstrual period is also a critical period for maintaining ovaries.
3, menstrual maintenance of ovaries
1, get ready in advance
One week before menstruation comes, you should be prepared for the next menstrual cramp, eat less oil, salt, pepper and cold food, soak your feet with hot water every day until menstruation comes, or drink a cup of ginger tea every day, especially for women with cold body. Doing this before menstruation is not only beneficial to smooth menstruation, but also can avoid dysmenorrhea.
2. Warm your body.
During menstruation, you should not only prevent catching cold, but also warm your body, so as to facilitate the smoother discharge of menstrual blood. Be careful not to wade in the rain, and it is not recommended to wash your hair three days before menstruation, otherwise it will be easily disturbed by cold pathogens and make menstrual blood stagnate. At the same time, hot water bags are often applied to the lower abdomen to keep the lower limbs warm, which is conducive to smooth blood circulation and normal blood discharge.
Step 3 eat warm food
Chinese medicine believes that warm food is helpful to smooth blood circulation, while eating raw and cold food is not conducive to digestion, and it will also hurt the yang of the human body, leading to poor blood circulation, which is prone to less menstrual blood, dysmenorrhea and even amenorrhea.
4, the right amount of iron.
Menstrual blood will take away a lot of iron in the body, and iron can provide sufficient nutrition for the ovaries. When menstruation comes, you can eat some iron-rich foods in moderation, such as pork liver soup, spinach, red dates, red beans and other foods, but it is not appropriate to supplement them deliberately, otherwise it will easily lead to an increase in menstrual flow, which is also bad.
5. Don't have sex.
When you have your period, you should not only scrub the vulva with warm water every day, change sanitary napkins and underwear frequently to prevent infection, but also pay attention to avoiding the same room, otherwise it will easily cause gynecological infection and lead to female genital inflammation and pelvic inflammatory disease. , and damage the uterus and ovaries.
6. Don't be too tired
It is easy to feel weak when menstruation comes and you are weak, coupled with the loss of some nutrients. Menstruation is coming, it is best not to make yourself too tired, otherwise it will affect the function and metabolism of body organs. Pay attention to rest, take a walk, bask in the sun, relax and keep a leisurely life.
4, the daily maintenance of the ovary needs to know.
1, eat foods containing estrogen.
Usually eat foods rich in phytoestrogens, such as soybeans, lentils, cereals, wheat, black rice, sunflower seeds, onions and so on. Drinking soybean milk with soybeans, red beans and black beans every day is the safest way to supplement phytoestrogens and should be adhered to for a long time.
2. Prevention and treatment of osteoporosis
Choose fresh milk or special milk powder to prevent osteoporosis caused by ovarian function decline.
3. Stay away from radiation.
Computer radiation will affect the quality of eggs, but it is impossible to completely avoid computer radiation. Most people think that wearing an LCD screen can keep away from computer radiation. In fact, the biggest radiation place is not the display screen but the power supply.
4, quit smoking and drinking, do not smoke second-hand smoke.
But drinking a small glass of red wine every day can improve the egg activity by 20%. Polyphenols in red wine can make eggs healthier. The content of polyphenols in white wine is only 10% lower than that in red wine, which is also a healthy choice. But the yeast in beer will "hypnotize" the ovaries and reduce the activity of eggs, so it is better to drink less.
It is not advisable to stay up late often.
While under great pressure, we should learn to combine work and rest and relax. Strengthen physical exercise. Yoga, swimming and walking are important ways to release physical and mental stress, maintain ovaries and increase bone density.
6. Reduce the intake of salt, wine and coffee, and reduce the possibility of osteoporosis.
7. supplement vitamin e.
Supplement vitamin E capsules at half the maximum intake every day. Facts have proved that vitamin E not only has the function of enhancing ovarian health care, but also has the function of anti-cell oxidation and anti-cell lipid peroxidation, and finally has the function of anti-aging.
8. Eat less painkillers.
A survey covering more than 4,000 European women shows that at the age of 25-35, each person takes an average of 77 painkillers a year, which will reduce the egg activity in the body by 7% compared with those who do not use painkillers.
Analgesics inhibit the nerve in the brain. Long-term use will "disturb" the nerve center, slow down the instruction speed to the ovary and weaken the activity of the egg.
9. Harmonious sex life
Maintaining a harmonious husband and wife life once or twice a week can give women a good endocrine environment, which is conducive to ovarian health.
10, pay attention to premature ovarian failure.
The key to treat premature ovarian failure is early detection and treatment. Therefore, as a woman, we should understand the symptoms and harm of premature ovarian failure. Once you find that your menstrual flow has decreased or suddenly stopped, you should see a doctor in time, and you must not delay or miss the best time for treatment.
