Can I practice yoga during my menstrual period?
Some people will be very weak during the physiological period (that is, menstrual period), prone to low back pain, dysmenorrhea and poor physical condition. Such people will be particularly uncomfortable in the first two days of the physiological period. At this time, the best way is to rest, or do a restorative yoga posture, such as lying on your back in baddha konasana. After the most uncomfortable two days, you can do some soothing yoga exercises, not too strong, which can help your body recover. In the non-physiological period, paying attention to strengthening the practice of asana and breathing will help improve your physical condition and avoid dysmenorrhea and other problems.

Some people are in good health and have little physical reaction during physiological period. Generally speaking, they can adapt to normal yoga practice. Even so, they should try to avoid handstand exercises, abdominal compression and contraction exercises (the core exercises of various abdominal contractions) and deep back bending exercises (excessive stretching of the skin and muscles in the front of the abdomen can easily cause abdominal pain during the physiological period).
