Dr. Wang Mingxuan
The causes of nosebleeds during menstruation may include blood heat, hormonal changes, etc. During the menstrual period, hormonal fluctuations in the body can increase the fragility of capillaries in the nasal mucosa. Additionally, dryness of the nasal passages due to weather conditions or other factors may cause capillaries in the nose to rupture, leading to nosebleeds. It is advisable to eat light foods during menstruation, avoid raw and cold foods, and keep the abdomen warm. If necessary, seek medical examination promptly.
