Can I continue to practice yoga during my menstrual period?

Since yoga can greatly benefit women's temperament and figure, many women are now willing to spend time and energy on its practice. However, during the practice, many people face the question of whether they can continue to practice yoga during menstruation. The editor will analyze and tell you the exact answer to the question.

Yoga is an ancient method of weight loss. It has tens of thousands of movements, including bending, stacking, folding, bending, twisting, suppressing, flexing, stretching, lifting, pressing, etc. Through the adjustment of movements and exhalation, it can achieve a slimming effect. However, for the sake of continuity in weight loss, most women who choose yoga to lose weight do not want their menstrual period to affect the weight loss process. Yoga can also help women regulate their menstrual period and solve some gynecological diseases, so they can continue to practice yoga during their menstrual period.

However, if you want to continue yoga to lose weight during your menstrual period, you must follow the guidance of a coach to avoid choosing movements that are not suitable for exercise during your menstrual period. Generally speaking, the movements that cannot be practiced during menstruation include all inversions (such as headstand, shoulder stand), and poses where the abdomen is lower than the pelvis (such as bikara pose, standing forward bend). If you still want to practice, you can support the ground with both hands so that the body is parallel to the ground, as well as poses that put too much stress on the abdomen (such as boat pose, plank pose), as well as poses that squeeze the abdomen too much (such as double-legged crocodile twist). Therefore, we can choose some movements with small amplitude and regulating breathing. This will not only not affect weight loss, but also promote blood circulation, nourish spinal nerves, balance the internal organs, and help you regulate menstruation, so that you can both regulate and reduce pain during the menstrual period and lose weight, having the best of both worlds.

In summary, women can continue to practice yoga after their menstruation, but they need to be aware of some precautions. This way, they can enjoy the benefits of yoga without affecting their menstrual period. However, the editor would like to remind you that when practicing yoga during menstruation, you must be careful not to get too tired and you should reduce the amount of exercise appropriately.
