1. Maintain hygiene to prevent infection

Keep the vulva clean whenever possible. If running water is unavailable, wipe the vulva with a clean small towel dipped in warm clean water.

2. Use qualified sanitary napkins

Ensure the packaging of sanitary napkins is intact and within the expiry date. Change them frequently during heavy flow to stop bacterial growth and avoid genital tract infections.

3. Use clean toilet paper

Clean toilet paper can be used as a substitute if sanitary napkins are not accessible. If clean toilet paper is unavailable, use clean cotton cloth or gauze; wash them promptly after use and air-dry under direct sunlight.

4. Keep warm and avoid cold stimuli

Take measures against cold. Avoid cold water showers and cold raw food.

5. Focus on nutritional intake

Boost nutrition moderately, drink plenty of warm water, and maintain regular bowel movements.

6. Avoid overexertion

Refrain from heavy physical labor, especially heavy lifting, which may lead to excessive menstrual bleeding and prolonged periods.

7. Stay positive and get adequate rest

Stabilize your mood and maintain an optimistic mindset. Take proper rest and ensure sufficient sleep.

8. Actively prevent and relieve dysmenorrhea

Sufficient rest and warmth help prevent menstrual cramps. Medication can be taken for pain relief if dysmenorrhea interferes with daily life and work.

9. Seek medical assistance promptly

Consult medical staff without delay if painkillers fail to ease cramps, or if you suffer from severe abdominal pain, abnormal menstruation (excessively heavy/scanty flow, overly long/short periods, irregular cycles) or signs of genital tract infection.
