Is it normal to have chills during menstruation?

It is generally normal for women to get chills during their periods, as the loss of blood during menstruation leads to a decrease in iron and haemoglobin in the body, resulting in a redistribution of blood in the body, a lack of blood supply to the skin and mucous membranes, and a decrease in heat production.
It is also related to the endocrine changes in the body during menstruation, so there is no need to worry about it. Keep warm, do not eat cold food, drink more hot water and place a hot compress or hot water bag on the abdomen. However, if there is a lot of menstrual flow, dizziness, easy fatigue, weakness, pale face, eyelids or nail bed and other symptoms of anaemia, you need to pay attention and go to hospital for further examination. If it is accompanied by fever and abdominal pain, you also need to pay attention and be alert to the possibility of infection and need further examination.
