Many women will find that abdominal discomfort is very serious during the physiological period. Once they take a prone position, they can alleviate the feeling of abdominal distension. However, don't sleep on your stomach for this comfortable feeling. When lying prone, not only the chest will be oppressed, but also the face will be oppressed by increasing the pressure on the chest, heart and lungs. When you wake up, you will find your face swollen and your eyes bloodshot.
Lying down to sleep is lying on your back: not good for the uterus.
Lying on your back is a common sleeping position, but it may not be suitable for physiological women. Under normal circumstances, the normal position of the uterus of adult women is in the center of pelvis, the uterus leans forward, and the cervix and uterus form an included angle of 120 ~ 150 degrees.
If you sleep on your back for a long time, it is very likely that there will be uterine displacement, the most common being the posterior position of the uterus, which means that the uterus will no longer lean forward and bring about a series of physical changes.
When menstruation comes, the uterine soft tissue will be congested and edematous. If you encounter the posterior position of the uterus, it will compress the nerves around the pelvic cavity, causing dysmenorrhea, general weakness and other symptoms; The posterior position of the uterus may also pull the cervix upwards, so that sperm can not enter the cervical canal smoothly, leading to infertility; Finally, the backward uterus may also lead to poor pelvic blood flow, excessive pelvic blood stasis and increased menstrual flow.
The best sleeping position is
Lying on your side: the best sleeping position in physiological period.
Lateral lying can be divided into right lying and left lying. Lying on the left side will press the heart, leading to poor blood circulation and physical discomfort. Lying on the right side is conducive to smooth blood circulation, normal operation of various organs of the body, adequate blood supply and menstrual blood outflow.
Generally speaking, as long as the night sanitary towel is used correctly, lying on the right side will not cause side leakage. If you are really worried, you can put some old clothes on the sheets or sew some "side leakage-proof" sheets. The area of the bed sheet does not need to be too large, which can catch the menstrual blood flowing out and is convenient for cleaning.
Finally, I must repeat:
Sleep on the table.
If you feel tired from work or surfing the Internet, don't sleep on your desk with your hand as a pillow. Because this is not only not conducive to menstrual blood discharge, but also will cause oppression on facial skin, make facial congestion, eyeball pressure, and difficulty breathing.
