When women suffer from dysfunctional uterine bleeding, they should be particularly careful with their diet. For example, most women at this time have pelvic congestion, so it is best not to eat cold or uncooked foods, as these can aggravate pelvic congestion, leading to increased bleeding or prolonged bleeding duration. Additionally, it is advisable to avoid foods that promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, or some proprietary Chinese medicines, such as the commonly seen saffron, which can also increase menstrual flow and vaginal bleeding. Most women with dysfunctional uterine bleeding, if prolonged, can affect their immunity, leading to infections. Therefore, it is best to avoid spicy foods during this period to prevent exacerbating infections.
