How to lie down during menstruation without leakage

During menstruation, lying flat on the back or on one's side usually prevents leakage. The specific analysis is as follows:

If a woman lies face down, frequently turns over during sleep, or makes large movements while sleeping, menstrual blood is more likely to leak out. Therefore, it is recommended to lie on one's side or back; this position is not only less prone to leakage but also beneficial for the heart. If menstrual flow is heavy, extended-length sanitary pads or diaper-style period underwear can be used, and sanitary pads should be changed frequently to prevent leakage. Additionally, placing a waterproof mattress protector or pad on the bed can help avoid direct contact of menstrual blood with bed sheets.

During menstruation, pelvic tissues often become congested and blood may accumulate. It is advisable to avoid cold-stimulating foods, as they may cause constriction of uterine blood vessels, impairing smooth menstrual flow and potentially leading to dysmenorrhea (painful menstruation).
