Periods never come alone, do they? We’ve all experienced the mood swings, cravings, bloating, irritation and cramps that it brings along. But we don’t have to just grin and bear with them. During these days women can follow certain tips to soothe their discomfort.

There are various methods you can try when it comes to natural pain treatment during periods. Let’s discuss a few of them today.

 

Heat Therapy

Warmth can be applied to the lower abdomen to ease menstrual cramps. To lessen period pain, you can use a heating pad, a hot water bottle, or take a warm bath.

 

Exercise

Light exercises that promote blood flow and lessen menstruation pain include walking and moderate stretching. Endorphins, which are organic painkillers, are also released during exercise.

 

Herbal Remedies

Traditional remedies for menstrual cramp relief and period control include using several herbs like raspberry leaf, chamomile, ginger, and cinnamon. You can drink herbal teas or use herbal supplements to reduce pain.

 

Dietary Adjustment

Making dietary modifications may help some people reduce menstrual pain. Increasing your consumption of omega-3 fatty acids, which are present in foods like walnuts, flaxseeds, and salmon, may help decrease pain and inflammation. Enjoying a few bites of chocolate may even make you feel better.

Nowadays GenZ tries to cut down on greasy food like burgers and goes for iron-rich food like spinach during their periods to ease their cramps.

 

Relaxation Techniques

Going for relaxation methods like deep breathing, meditation, or yoga may help lessen pain and foster a sense of calm because stress can make symptoms worse.

 

Essential Oils

Menstrual pain can be treated with a few essential oils, including peppermint, clary sage, and lavender. Massage your lower belly with a few drops of diluted essential oil mixed with carrier oil, like coconut or almond oil.

Keep in mind that every person has a different body and that what works for one person may not work for another. It’s critical to get medical treatment from a healthcare provider if you experience continuous and unusual pain.
