Can women have their teeth extracted during their menstrual period?

  Many women are always full of doubts when they are not feeling well, whether they can pull out their teeth during their physiological period or not. Recently, many bloggers have asked me this question, and here I would like to tell you for sure: women cannot have their teeth extracted during their physiological period.  This is because women’s endocrine balance is affected to a certain extent during menstruation, and there are some subtle changes in the body, which increase the brittleness of blood vessels and decrease the contraction ability of blood vessels at this time, and they tend to bleed more than once after rupture.  At the same time, the platelet count during menstruation can change significantly, often decreasing on the first day of menstruation and not returning to the original number until the third or fourth day. In addition, the pain nerves of women during menstruation are more sensitive and the systemic resistance is relatively poor, so patients who have their teeth extracted during menstruation feel sick more obviously and are prone to infection. Therefore, all traumatic examinations and treatments for the body should be avoided during menstruation as much as possible.  During menstruation, the endometrium of the human body releases more tissue-activating substances, which can activate fibrinolytic enzymes in the blood into fibrinolytic enzymes with anti-coagulant effect, making the human body more prone to bleeding. Therefore, tooth extraction (or surgery) during menstruation may cause more bleeding, which can easily lead to wound infection and unfavorable healing.  The best time for dental extraction for women is 8-14 days after menstruation, which is the best time for dental treatment for women, among which the 10th day after menstruation is the best, as there is less bleeding, less pain, lower infection rate after surgery and faster wound healing.
