Q. I only have diarrhea during my period (menstrual diarrhea).

A.

The hormone called 'prostaglandin,' responsible for contracting the uterus to expel menstrual blood, can also cause the adjacent large intestine to contract, leading to diarrhea.

📝 Detailed Answer

자궁만 쥐어짜면 되는데 장까지 쥐어짜서 문제입니다.

자연스러운 호르몬 작용이라 병은 아닙니다. 배를 따뜻하게 찜질해주면 자궁과 장의 긴장이 풀려 생리통과 설사 모두 완화됩니다.
