Women have about 450 menstrual cycles in their lives! If you think about it, this whole physical process is not so cheap, it costs a woman's pocket to six thousand dollars for hygienic products. We often take no note of such statistics and have no record of the characteristics of our organs, especially when it comes to our period. We'll “godaim” this time rejecting seven wrong myths we knew as normal during the days of the menstrual cycle. Attention!

Myth #1: You are not allowed to take a shower
Some girls avoid the taste of shower during their cycles because they feel that hot water spurs bloodshed, and others fear being infected. But it is not the bleeding plague, it is just endometriium that is separated from the endometric wall. The water won't be able to go that far. A warm bath can be beneficial. Hot water improves blood circulation, relaxes muscles, and reduces menstrual cramps.

Myth #2: You are not allowed to swim in a swimming pool or at sea
Many people feel that this is bad for women's health but not true. First, a tampon or a menstrual cup will not allow water to enter. Second, swimming and other exercise reduce pain. It's not that easy to get an infection in a swimming pool. According to statistics, in a swimming pool, you are in danger of contracting a gastroinstinal disease, conjuction, or skin disease. To avoid irritation by swimming in a swimming pool, take showers and wear clean clothes.

Myth #3: Periods sync when women live together
Martha McClintock was the first to write about this feature in her 1971 article. In her experience, friends, relatives, and roommates had their period almost 100% synchronized. The reason was because they exchanged certain pheromones produced by the female body. Later studies have rejected the link between cycles and the frequency of interaction. It turns out it had not considered certain factors and a similar experiment produced absolutely different results. Today, menstrual synchronization has not been proven and treated as myth in the scientific community.

Myth #5: Strong drinks can affect the menstrual cycle
It's about the dosage! Ladies who consume plenty of alcohol regularly tend to have irregular menstrual cycles, innovations, and amororrhea. Alcohol abuse has a weak effect on the whole body, not just the reproductive system. If you want to have a glass of wine or a cocktail during your cycle, it's OK. Studies show that moderate drinking does not destroy your menstrual cycle or affect your health.

Myth #6: You don't have to compile or tattoo during the cycle
Some tattoo artists do not recommend that women do so during their period, since a tattoo may hurt. Cosmologists also try to prevent their clients from doing some procedures such as Botox injections, filters, etc. But the result depends on the expert.

Myth #7: You must tolerate the pain of your belly
Yes, almost all women experience this pain, but its intensity can change. Between 45 and 93% of women suffer from dysmenorrea. From 3 to 33% of them suffer severe pain - high body temperature, vomiting, dizziness, and other symptoms that make women really sick for 1-3 days. If your pain doesn't go through for a few days, it's best to talk to a doctor or take a sedative.
