1-3 days menstrual period, do some gentle stretching exercises, such as meditation yoga, elementary gymnastics, or just some simple stretching exercises. These light exercises can help the body circulate smoothly and relieve stress.

Movements that should be avoided when expanding data.

We should avoid strenuous exercise, such as long-distance running, kicking, skipping, high jump and long jump. Especially those that can increase abdominal pressure, such as sit-ups, weightlifting, dumbbells and so on. If the abdominal pressure suddenly rises, it will not only easily lead to the change of bleeding volume, but also induce or aggravate the general discomfort during menstruation, and even cause dysmenorrhea, menstrual disorder and gynecological infection.

During menstruation, strenuous exercise may also cause menstrual blood to flow back from uterine cavity to pelvic cavity, leading to endometriosis, dysmenorrhea and even long-term infertility. 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.
