Is it true that eating limon,chocolate or chile is bad when you have your period?

No, sadly this is a myth. Lemon and chile do not cause cramps during your period; the lemon would probably irritate the mouth whilst the chile irritates the stomach. Thankfully, chocolate is actually useful when one has mentrual cramps or any type of pain such as headaches. On the contrary, chocolate acts as a natural painkiller quelling those painful cramps.\n\nThere are some foods that make cramps more painful. The most noteworthy one is caffeine. That means if you want a less painful cycle cut out the coffee, coca cola, dr pepper or any of those caffeine containing drinks.\n\nI hope this helps=)

Pineapple will not induce menstration, but it's safe to eat whatever foods (given you are not allergic/it's not poisonous) before or during menstration.

Yes, it is safe to mast-rb-te while on your period. It is normal to feel sexually aroused during your period. Orgasms relieve menstral cramps.

Cam down! eat some chocolate and you'll be fine. if this is your first period i'm sure you've heard tons of thins about what it can do to you.  ( like mess your body up) someimes it's all just in your head, just chill out and let your  body do it's thing. if you don't wanna be attracted to boys, then that's not a crime. but you're not a lesbian, s don't think that.  your body is just trying to get used to what's going on with your body

For average, healthy couples with no sexually transmitted diseases, there are no significant biological or medical reasons to avoid sex during menstruation. \nHowever, blood is a great carrier for infectious diseases, so having sex during your period can increase the risk of transmitting an STD. Unless you are in a trusting, healthy, disease-free relationship, you should always use a condom when you have sex. Period sex is no exception.\nThe bottom line is that sex during menstruation carries the same risks as sex at other times. Just remember that some of these risks are elevated during menstruation, due to the presence of blood. Be sure to use the same precautions with sex during menstruation as you would at other times, to prevent pregnancy and the transmission of disease.

I couldn't say what your causes are, but it happens to me when I am anemic and/or have low blood sugar.  It wouldn't hurt for you to be sure to eat regularly and take an iron supplement (especially if you are a menstruating female).  Geritol Tonic is what I drink (one sip a day).

Not to my knowledge. Are you talking about drinking it? If so, even on my worst day I'd rather have a period than drink vinegar.

No one knows for sure. Scientist can't find a real connection other than the caffeine in the chocolate. But with all the woman who "MUST HAVE CHOCOLATE!" it is hard to ignore it.\n\nIf caffeine is so bad, then why do ALL of the leading over-the-counter meds for menstrual cramps contain high doses of caffeine? Come on, caffeine is a natural pain killer, always has been.

Actually, your period is precipitated by a steep DROP in hormone levels that induces shedding of the lining of the uterus. Hormone levels peak just around ovulation (i.e., mid-cycle), and only remain high if fertilization occurs (if there is a pregnancy). In a normal cycle, where there is no fertilization, hormone levels drop steeply and this causes menstruation.

Banannas/Yogurt\nAnything with lots of potassium is good....check out some home remedies. Like if you swallow down cumin and salt [drink helluh water down] it will sort of make your menstruation not as...severe?

I assume you mean hungry? \n\nIts hormonal.  Estrogen fades as you get ready to start a period.  Estrogen helps keep insulin under control.  Insulin, thus, can go wild.  The purpose of insulin is to open the "cell's mouths" to let food and water in.  Thus, right before your period, insulin is madly tucking food and water in cells, causing bloating and weight gain.\n\nThe food insulin tucks in cells is blood glucose.  If insulin tucks in too much glucose (a condition known as hyperinsulinemia), it can result in there being too little blood glucose in the blood stream for the rest of the body to use during the day (a condition known as hypoglycemia).  If the brain senses a low blood sugar condition, it requests food, lots of it, high carb food like chocolate and potato chips and french fries and such.  \n\nThat is why you may be hungry before your period.\n\nTo find out whys and what to do, visit www.hufa.org

Emotions can be affected by hormonal shifts that occur just before and during your period.  :o)

Dieting shouldn't be suffering, there is a book called French Women Don't Get Fat which uses that as its motto. I'll sum up some of the main points here and if you're interested you can buy the book somewhere.\n1. Eat everything in moderation. There is nothing wrong with eating chocolate, as long as you dont eat too much.\n2. When you eat, especially something unhealthy such as chocolate, enjoy every bite. Truly savor the food instead of just swallowing it.\n3. Make a list of everything you eat for a week then look over it and see what your eating too much of. Try extra hard to eat that in moderation. The easiest way to do that is to replace the food that you overeat with vegtables or fruit. \n4. Try out some new, healty recipies. Just go to the bookstore and browse untill you find something that looks tasty and healthy.\nGood luck and have fun!

The literature says NO. My experience says YES.\n\nEverytime I eat chocolate I get pimples myself.\n\nThe literature must not be right all the time.

i know that certain chocolates contain flavanol which is good for heart health. BUT keep in mind that chocolate is fattening and that it can contribute to heart problems so it could be doing more harm than good. GOOD chocolate isnt on the market really regular chocolate doesnt contain enough flavanol to have a serious effect.

I would sure think so because your hormone levels are more unbalanced during menustration and right before it\n\nMy roommate especially finds herself wanting more sweets when she is on her period and hungrier all the time right before it\n\nSo based on experience with other people, I think it's normal - I'd still say try not to, but heck, it's a period - every girl's disdain.
