Improper sleeping position 1: curled up
Many women feel abnormal back pain during menstruation. Besides fatigue and mental stress, curled sleeping posture may also be an important cause of backache. In order to relieve abdominal discomfort, many women will adopt a curled-up fetal sleeping position during menstruation. But in fact, this kind of sleeping position will cause damage to the waist and cervical spine, cause muscle tension, and aggravate the symptoms of menstrual pain. In addition, sleeping curled up may lead to poor blood circulation, which is not conducive to the smooth discharge of menstrual blood.
Improper sleeping position 2: prone In order to prevent side leakage and back leakage, some women simply adopt prone sleeping position. But this sleeping position will add extra pressure to joints and muscles and stimulate corresponding nerves. When you wake up, menstrual symptoms such as headache, abdominal pain and backache will get worse.
Recommended sleeping position: lying on the right side.
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. Therefore, the correct sleeping position is the best sleeping position for women during menstruation.
2. How to sleep well during menstruation?
1, adjust the sound and light in the bedroom
Light and sound are important factors that affect sleep. Using an eye mask during menstrual sleep can block the light and reduce the interference of light on sleep. Some eye masks are also filled with lavender, which has the effect of soothing aromatherapy and improving the quality of menstrual sleep. Turning down the brightness of lights two hours before going to bed can stimulate the secretion of sleep hormones in the body, and then induce natural sleep.
Secondly, playing light music with regular rhythm, slow tune and low volume in the room before going to bed can relieve the tension and anxiety during menstruation, let the brain release alpha brain waves that can relax the body and mind, and help the brain to better enter the sleep state. Try to keep the bedroom quiet to a certain extent when sleeping, and the ideal decibel is suggested to be controlled below 40 decibels. It is a good choice to set windows or curtains with good sound insulation effect.
2. Choose sanitary napkins suitable for night use.
If the permeability and leak-proof ability of sanitary napkins at night are not good enough, you will be surrounded by nervous and worried emotions and uncomfortable feelings all night. How can you have a good sleep? Choose a night sanitary towel with high permeability, soft texture and strong leak-proof ability, which can keep dry in the long night and avoid the harm caused by bacterial growth; Faster absorption speed can also avoid menstrual blood overflow, prevent side leakage and late leakage.

3. Improving good blood circulation can provide sufficient nutrition for body cells, eliminate toxins, stabilize body temperature and mood, and thus effectively improve sleep quality. Modern women often sit for a long time at work, which is prone to poor blood circulation. What should they do before going to bed?
Pay attention to keep feet warm: feet are the farthest part of the body from the heart, because insufficient blood supply is more likely to catch cold, which directly affects the quality of sleep. In order to keep your feet warm, it is a good way to soak your feet before going to bed. Soaking feet with hot water half an hour before going to bed is not only conducive to promoting blood circulation, relieving dysmenorrhea, but also regulating body temperature, relaxing nerves, making people relax and fall asleep quickly.
Wear loose pajamas: too tight clothes will affect the menstrual blood discharge of endometrium, causing qi and blood obstruction and affecting sleep quality. Cloth with poor air permeability and soft texture will rub the skin and aggravate the discomfort. Therefore, pay attention to the choice of pajamas during menstruation. Experts suggest that it is best to wear pajamas with natural materials and loose design.
