Cause: White-collar women often experience severe pain before and during menstruation due to long-term sitting. This is due to long-term sitting and lack of normal exercise, which leads to blood circulation disorders; some have qi stagnation and blood stasis, which can easily lead to lymphatic or hematogenous embolism, making the fallopian tubes blocked; and some have endometriosis due to long-term sitting and physical reasons. These are all causes of infertility.

Countermeasure: Office workers should exercise for at least 30 minutes every day. To achieve this amount of exercise, you can adapt to local conditions. For example, when you take the bus to and from work, you can get off two stops earlier and walk, or ride a bicycle instead; when you go upstairs, take the stairs instead of the elevator; when commercials are on TV, stand up and walk around. The intensity of exercise can be gradually increased. If you originally walked one station for 15 minutes, you can gradually speed up to 10 minutes. Of course, if you can spare more time, it is recommended that you do 5 minutes of leisure exercise for every work hour. It is very simple, you just need to stretch your legs, turn your head, and twist your waist.

If you often can't sit up, be careful of testicular necrosis
