Health for All says
In recent years, there has been an increasing focus on the relationship between women's menstrual cycles and sexual desire. Some people have come to the conclusion based on personal experience and observation that women tend to feel an increase in their libido during menstruation and want to see this phenomenon. As an experienced veteran Chinese medicine practitioner, this article will combine traditional Chinese medicine theories and ancient and modern prescriptions to explain the reasons why women's desire becomes stronger during menstruation, and the possible consequences when they hold back their sexual desire.
First of all, from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, the reason why women's desire to become stronger during menstruation can be boiled down to two aspects: one is physiological changes, and the other is mood swings.
Around the time of menstruation, hormone levels in a woman's body change, such as estrogen and progesterone levels increase. Fluctuations in these hormones may have an impact on a woman's libido, causing her to feel an increase in libido during her period. In addition, menstruation is often accompanied by the shedding of the endometrium as well as the process of uterine contractions, and these changes may cause some physiological discomfort, which can be relieved by the release of substances such as endorphins during sex.
In addition, women are often accompanied by mood swings during menstruation, such as irritability, irritability, crying and other emotional changes. These mood swings are associated with hormonal changes and may also lead to an increase in libido. Studies have shown that sex can release endorphins, dopamine, and other substances, which can improve mood and make people feel relaxed and happy. As a result, women may use sex to ease their mood swings during their periods.
However, holding back your sexual desire and refraining from sexual activity can have some potential consequences. First of all, holding back your sexual desire can lead to a build-up of sexual desire, which in turn can trigger a series of physical discomforts. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the accumulation of sexual desire for too long leads to "exuberant fire", which may have a negative impact on the woman's endocrine system and uterus, ovaries and other organs. In addition, holding back sexual desire for a long time may lead to emotional tension and depression, which brings potential risks to one's mental health.
In summary, the increase in libido during menstruation in women may be due to physical and emotional changes. Holding back your sexual desire and refraining from sex can have potentially negative effects on your physical and mental health. Therefore, it is recommended that women can satisfy their sexual desires through sexual activity appropriately if they can ensure their health and safety.
