Do you also suffer from this?
Many women are familiar with this - menstruation starts once a month and is accompanied by pain, cramps, nausea or mood swings .
During these few days, the uterus contracts again and again to shed the mucous membrane. And this can cause the unpleasant accompanying symptoms .
There are some home remedies that you can use to make these days less painful.
- Heat relieves cramps
Place a hot water bottle, cherry stone cushion or heat plaster on your abdomen. Allow yourself to relax and enjoy a cozy atmosphere, which will also support your mood. - Magnesium
also has an antispasmodic and muscle-relaxing effect. Eat a magnesium-rich diet with nuts, bananas, pulses and millet between your regular days and take magnesium supplements during your period. Discuss the product with your gynecologist. - Antispasmodic teas
can also alleviate the symptoms. Prefer lady's mantle, cinquefoil, camomile and yarrow. - Relax
Stress and tension also have an effect on your body. Especially during your period, it makes sense to consciously organize your time so that you have time for yourself in between. Don't add extra appointments to these days. Practice relaxation exercises from yoga, progressive muscle relaxation or autogenic training. This helps to relieve cramps. - Refrain from smoking
Nicotine reduces blood flow, including to the uterus. This can make the contractions and therefore the pain even more pronounced. - Exercise is good for you
Even if you don't feel like it, appropriate exercise stimulates blood circulation. This can reduce pain. Regular exercise even prevents pain. - Use of medication
If the pain is unbearable, talk to your gynecologist. The pain should be well investigated and other illnesses, such as endometriosis, should be ruled out. In these cases, painkillers or the use of a pill can help.
Find a remedy that makes your period easier - that way it's only half as bad.
