Does drinking brown sugar during menstruation work?

Drinking brown sugar water when you have your period is effective in relieving the discomfort during menstruation to a certain extent and helping the discharge of stagnant blood in the uterus. If there is significant abdominal pain and discomfort, which cannot be effectively relieved by self-regulation and abdominal warmth, you need to take medication in time for treatment. During menstruation, as the pelvic congestion is obvious, drinking brown sugar water and abdominal warmth can promote local blood circulation, thus improving the symptoms. Brown sugar has the effect of replenishing qi and blood in Chinese medicine, and women lose a lot of qi and blood during menstruation, which can be replenished to some extent by drinking brown sugar water. Avoid drinking too much, which can aggravate abdominal discomfort and also lead to gastrointestinal discomfort, and pay attention to drinking small amounts with multiple meals.
