Can we eat ice cream during periods?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Having a lot of dairy products is not the best idea, as it can cause cramping. Dairy products like milk, cheese, and ice cream contain arachidonic acid (an omega-6 fatty acid), which can increase inflammation and can intensify your period pain.

What's the safe window for having unprotected sex to avoid pregnancy? Is there a way I can have sex without a condom and my wife wont get pregnant?
The concept of a "safe period" refers to the time in a woman's menstrual cycle when she is least likely to conceive. However, it is important to note that this method is not highly reliable, as ovulation can vary. For more effective pregnancy prevention, it's advisable to use contraception, such as condoms or other birth control methods, to reduce the risk of pregnancy.
