How did ancient people come to menstruation?
Ancient women faced a lot of difficulties and restrictions when they had their periods.
In ancient times, women were usually regarded as unclean, unable to participate in family and social activities, and even forced to leave their families to seek refuge.
However, ancient women also invented many ways to deal with their periods, such as using homemade sanitary napkins such as herbs and strips of cloth, or using hard materials such as ceramics and stone to replace modern sanitary products.
Therefore, ancient women faced many difficulties and restrictions when they had their periods, but they also invented many ways to deal with this problem in order to maintain their health and dignity.
In ancient times, it was common for women to menstruation, so there were some nursing and treatment methods about menstruation in ancient times. Here are some ancient ways for women to deal with menstruation:
1. Avoid going out, not cleaning: ancient women rest at home most of the time during menstruation, because menstruation was believed to be the excretion of sediment inside the body, and going out would bring excreta indoors and outside, causing wind-cold to invade. At the same time, because menstruation was regarded as "unclean" in the body, ancient women did not deal with housework.
two。 Dealing with menstrual supplies: when ancient women came to menstruation, they often used some self-made sanitary products, such as tampons and cloth towels wrapped with cloth strips and cotton. In cleaning, people will use a mixture of boiled water and cold water to wash, disinfect and then dry with clean cloth bags for backup.
3. Diet therapy: ancient women should avoid eating cold drinks and pickled, greasy and irritating foods during menstruation, and supplement iron and vitamin E that are lacking in food.
It should be noted that these methods are only the way ancient women deal with menstruation, and modern women's methods of dealing with menstruation have become more scientific and hygienic, such as the use of sanitary napkins, pads and other hygiene products; at the same time, we also need to pay attention to personal hygiene habits, do a good job of cleaning and health care. At the same time, if your menstruation is abnormal, it is recommended to consult a doctor in time to avoid health problems.
In ancient times, women usually used household trash such as cloth strips, bandages and handkerchiefs to absorb menstruation. They need to be changed frequently to avoid the eyes of the public. At the same time, many women also use self-made cotton pads, vegetable leaves, horsetail grass and other materials to make menstrual mats.
In ancient Japan, some women used sandbags instead of menstrual mats, which provided stronger absorptive capacity.
As we all know, women go through menstruation every month. In order to get through this period safely, there are all kinds of sanitary napkins, tampons and so on. But ancient women were not so happy during their menstruation.
At that time, there were no sanitary napkins and other products, they would generally use strong adsorption dry items to wipe, such as sea sponges, feathers.
With the development of the times, with silk hemp, they slowly fumbled out the menstrual belt.
The menstrual band needs to be changed regularly, and in order to avoid side leakage, they will place burned plant ash in the middle of the menstrual zone, which is said to be able to sterilize and reduce inflammation and absorb menstrual blood.
The correct way to wear sanitary napkins?
When it comes to sanitary napkins, women are certainly no stranger to this. After all, they meet once a month. Sanitary napkins are sanitary items used by women during menstruation, although they are called "sanitary napkins", but the chemicals they contain are harmful to women's bodies, especially their private parts. Therefore, we must be careful when using sanitary napkins. Let's learn the correct use of sanitary napkins.
1. Wash your hands before using sanitary napkins
If you do not wash your hands before use, the process of unsealing, opening, smoothing and pasting sanitary napkins with your hands will bring a large number of germs to sanitary napkins. Sanitary napkins come into direct contact with female vulva skin, and menstruation is a period when women's resistance is low. If you don't pay attention to it, it's easy to get infected or cause gynecological diseases.
2. Sanitary napkins should not be put in the bathroom
Sanitary napkins are very unsanitary in the bathroom, because general sanitary napkins are made of nonwovens and are fiber materials. after being exposed to moisture, the materials deteriorate, and bacteria are easy to invade and breed, while most bathrooms in our country do not see sunshine all day, and there are many damp. It's easy to breed molds and pollute sanitary napkins. The unpacked sanitary napkins should be kept in a dry and clean environment and should not be used again after being exposed to moisture.
3. Pay attention to the shelf life of sanitary napkins
For convenience, some people buy many bags of sanitary napkins at one time and store them at home. When this batch was not used up, the next batch came, piled on top of the previous remaining packaging. The sanitary napkins pressed under this way will take a long time to be used, and may have passed the expiration date. In fact, the sanitary requirements of sanitary napkins are very strict, and the closer to the production date, the more guaranteed the quality. Sanitary napkins are aseptic by high temperature disinfection. After all, the validity of one-time disinfection and sterilization is limited, and there will be no aseptic protection beyond the time limit. If sanitary napkins are stored for too long, even if they are not unsealed, they will deteriorate and become contaminated.
4. Be careful with sanitary napkins with medicine or fragrance
Drugs or fragrance ingredients may have adverse effects on the body. The fragrance composition does not represent cleanliness. Drug sanitary napkins should be used more cautiously. To a certain extent, drug sanitary napkins may play a role in female pubic cleaning and prevention and treatment of various gynecological diseases, but they are not suitable for everyone, because people's physique varies greatly. Some people will be allergic when they come into contact with certain substances, but they will appear vulva itching, which is the same as some people eating seafood allergy. Therefore, no matter which kind of drug sanitary napkins are used, we should pay attention to their own reactions and feelings.
5. Change sanitary napkins every two hours.
Because menstrual blood is rich in nutrients, it is easy to become a 'medium' for bacteria to grow wantonly, so sanitary napkins must be changed diligently. There is a survey: Japanese women change an average of 6 times a day during menstruation, compared with 3 times for Chinese women. With the same Asian race, there should not be much difference in physique, while the overall menstrual flow of Chinese women should be even greater because of the high proportion of using IUD. Experts suggest: to keep sanitary napkins dry and hygienic, it is best to change them every two hours.
