Students relieve menstrual cramps

For some female students, abdominal pain during menstruation affects their normal life and study. Moreover, they cannot stay in bed to rest because of their studies. Therefore, students should be able to master methods to relieve dysmenorrhea, so that they can reduce the pain of their body during menstruation and will not delay their studies. Moreover, these methods are easier to implement in life. So what methods do students have to relieve dysmenorrhea?

1. Eat more warm foods

Most dysmenorrhea is caused by cold body or cold uterus in women, so eating more warm foods on a daily basis has many benefits for improving women's health. If you are sure that you have a cold constitution (manifested by cold hands and feet, fear of cold, diarrhea during menstruation, etc.), you should pay attention to eating less cold food in your daily life, especially in summer. Control yourself and stay away from cold drinks and ice cream, which can effectively eliminate cold and moisture in the body. Here are some common cold and warm foods.

Warm foods include: glutinous rice, leeks, garlic, ginger, pumpkin, chicken, pork liver, brown sugar, yam, rose, old duck, almonds, lentils, etc.

Cold foods include: lotus root, kelp, bean sprouts, bitter melon, water spinach, radish, bamboo shoots, water chestnuts, clams, bananas, watermelon, kiwi fruit, green tea, honeysuckle tea, etc.

During menstruation, you can warm your body by drinking hot water, wearing more clothes, etc., to dilate blood vessels, speed up blood flow, and counteract the contraction of uterine smooth muscles, thereby reducing pain.

I drink rose tea and brown sugar ginger tea to regulate my body on a daily basis, especially during menstruation, drinking a cup of hot rose tea will make me feel relaxed and effectively relieve pain. However, it should be noted that if the menstrual flow is heavy, it is not suitable to drink rose tea.

The editor is now buying the Pingyin rose from Miji Flower Tea, which has higher nutritional value than French rose. 25 yuan a bottle, cheap but of very good quality.

2. Eat light food 3-5 days before menstruation

I am a person who loves spicy food. Even acne on my face can't stop me from eating spicy food. But when my period is about to come, I will still honestly choose food that is easy to digest and has a light taste. In addition, eating some sour foods, such as sauerkraut, food with vinegar, etc., can help relieve dysmenorrhea.

3. Avoid eating raw or cold food during menstruation

I believe everyone knows this, but the important thing is whether you can do it. However, it should be emphasized that you must avoid eating raw and cold foods during menstruation, because raw and cold foods can stimulate the contraction of the uterus and fallopian tubes, thereby inducing or aggravating dysmenorrhea.

It is recommended that you record your menstrual period on your mobile phone like the editor, so that you can start abstaining from food in advance and avoid other embarrassing problems.

4. Supplementing minerals such as calcium, potassium and magnesium can also help relieve menstrual pain

Experts have found that women who take calcium have less dysmenorrhea than those who do not. Magnesium is also important because it helps the body absorb calcium efficiently. Therefore, you may wish to increase your calcium and magnesium intake before and during menstruation.
