Yogurt is a common food in life, rich in probiotics and nutrients, and it does not affect menstruation, so women can drink yogurt in moderation during their periods.

At the same time, yogurt contains a variety of nutrients such as protein, minerals and vitamins, which can be consumed in moderation during menstruation to replenish the body with nutrients and strengthen the body. During menstruation, women’s intestines are more sensitive, so patients need to pay attention to the yogurt not too cold, if it is just taken out of the refrigerator, it needs to be rewarmed at room temperature, or heated with warm water before drinking, to avoid dysmenorrhea caused by cold. When heating, it should be noted that boiling water should not be used or boiled directly in water, so as not to destroy the nutrients in the yogurt by the high temperature.
