Precautions for menstrual exercise:
Violent exercise during menstruation, such as high jump, long jump, running and playing football, will induce or aggravate general discomfort during menstruation, and even cause dysmenorrhea and menstrual disorder. Some strength exercises to increase abdominal pressure, such as weightlifting and dumbbells, should also be avoided as far as possible, otherwise it will cause menorrhagia or prolonged menstruation.
In addition, because the uterine mouth is slightly open during menstruation, bacteria can easily invade the uterine cavity, increase the chance of infection and cause various gynecological inflammations, so it is not suitable for swimming during menstruation. It is not appropriate to participate in competitions during menstruation, so as to avoid menstrual disorders and endocrine disorders caused by excessive mental stress. For girls with severe dysmenorrhea and inflammation of reproductive organs, it is best to suspend physical exercise during menstruation.
But moderate physical exercise is good for girls. Such as gymnastics, table tennis, Tai Ji Chuan, jogging, queuing and other sports activities with little exercise, light intensity and gentle movements can promote blood circulation and relieve abdominal distension and abdominal pain during menstruation. At the same time, it also helps to regulate the excitement and inhibition process of the brain, distract attention, maintain a happy spirit, and reduce discomfort such as menstrual tension and irritability.
