Female friends all know that the body is prone to various problems during menstruation. The reason is that our body's immunity and digestive ability will decrease during menstruation, so female friends must be very cautious during menstruation. Some female friends are prone to abdominal pain during menstruation, so what methods should we use to alleviate this situation? Avoid alcohol If you are prone to edema during menstruation, alcohol will aggravate the problem. Don't drink alcohol. If you must drink, limit it to 1-2 glasses of wine. Do not use diuretics. Many women think that diuretics can reduce menstrual swelling and discomfort, but Dr. Lark advises against this method. Diuretics remove important minerals from the body along with water. Experts suggest reducing the intake of substances such as salt and alcohol that cause water retention in the body. Stay Warm Keeping your body warm will increase blood circulation and relax your muscles, especially in the pelvic area, which can be spasmodic and congested. Drink plenty of hot herbal tea or hot lemon juice. You can also place a heating pad or hot water bottle on your abdomen for a few minutes at a time. How can a mineral bath relieve menstrual cramps? Add 1 cup of sea salt and 1 cup of sodium bicarbonate to a tub of warm water. Soaking for 20 minutes can help relax muscles and relieve menstrual cramps. Exercise, especially before your period, such as walking or engaging in other moderate exercise, will make you more comfortable during your period. Practicing yoga also has a relaxing effect. Here are some examples. Kneel down with your knees bent, sitting on your heels. Rest your forehead on the ground and stretch your arms out at your sides. Hold this position until you feel uncomfortable. Taking the pain reliever aspirin can relieve menstrual cramps. When menstrual cramps start, take it with a little milk or food (1 tablet) to avoid stomach upset, and continue taking it until the menstrual cramps disappear. Supplementing with minerals such as calcium, potassium and magnesium can also help relieve menstrual pain. Experts have found that women who take calcium have less menstrual pain than those who do not. Magnesium is also important because it helps the body absorb calcium efficiently. You may want to increase your calcium and magnesium intake before and during your period. In the above article, we introduced the reasons why female friends are prone to problems during menstruation. Many female friends are prone to abdominal pain during menstruation. In fact, we can use several methods introduced above to relieve abdominal pain during menstruation. |
