You can drink Chenpi water in moderation when you are menstruating.
Chenpi is the dried mature fruit peel of orange and its cultivated varieties in the family of Rutaceae. It is bitter, pungent and warm in nature, and belongs to the lung and spleen meridians. It has the effects of regulating qi and strengthening the spleen, drying dampness and resolving phlegm (expelling dampness by drying dampness and resolving phlegm). It is clinically used to treat symptoms such as distention and fullness in the epigastrium (stomach and abdomen), low food intake, vomiting and diarrhea, and coughing with excessive phlegm.
Chenpi does not have the effect of activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis, and generally does not cause bad effects on menstruation and the organism, so it is possible to drink some Chenpi water in moderation during menstruation. Moreover, when Chenpi is brewed and drunk, it generally has no therapeutic effect due to the limited active ingredients in the water. The adverse reactions of this product are not clear.
However, if you need to use Chen Pi to treat or regulate the body, you need to do it under the diagnosis and treatment of professional Chinese medicine practitioners, and follow the doctor’s instructions to use the medication, and do not use the medication on your own, so as not to cause discomfort.
