Can I take aloe vera capsules during menstruation?

　　Aloe capsules, also known as new compound aloe capsules, their suitability for use during menstruation depends on individual circumstances. They may be appropriate for individuals experiencing severe constipation with no significant menstrual discomfort, but they are not suitable for women with heavy menstrual bleeding or significant abdominal pain. If in doubt, it is recommended to consult a healthcare professional in advance. Detailed analysis is as follows:

　　The main ingredients of new compound aloe capsules have the effect of lubricating the intestines and relieving constipation. If a woman experiences severe constipation during menstruation without other significant discomforts, appropriate use may help alleviate difficulties in bowel movements. These medications improve constipation by promoting intestinal motility, thereby reducing the physical strain caused by difficult defecation. However, this applies only if there are no symptoms such as heavy menstrual bleeding or severe abdominal pain, as otherwise, it may exacerbate menstrual discomfort.

　　If a woman experiences heavy menstrual bleeding or significant abdominal pain during menstruation, taking new compound aloe capsules is not advisable. The laxative effect of the medication may stimulate the intestines, indirectly affecting pelvic blood circulation, leading to increased menstrual blood loss or intensified abdominal pain. Particularly for women with cold body constitution or insufficient qi and blood, taking such medications may further impair the body's normal defenses and affect overall health.

　　During menstruation, more attention should be paid to a balanced diet, consuming more foods rich in iron and fiber, and maintaining good lifestyle habits to help maintain overall health.
