Nausea and vomiting during menstruation can be managed symptomatically with oral antiemetic medications. Additionally, it is important to maintain adequate nutrition, drink plenty of warm water to support metabolic function, avoid staying up late or overexertion, and refrain from vigorous physical activity. Personal hygiene should be prioritized—wash the urethral opening daily with warm water. Diet should be light and bland. Use high-quality sanitary pads for care, and keep the external genitalia clean and dry.
