How to relieve menstrual pain

Menstruation is one of the physiological phenomena that troubles every one of our female friends. The normality of menstruation will directly affect the health of our reproductive system. However, there are still many friends who suffer from menstrual disorders, irregular menstruation and other conditions. The causes of these problems are mostly because we do not pay attention to the importance of menstruation. So what are some ways to relieve period pain?

1. Protect your home from the cold. Living in a cold and humid place for a long time, or taking cold baths, swimming, or encountering rain during menstruation may cause the cold evil to remain, affecting the smooth flow of menstrual blood and causing dysmenorrhea.

2. Start eating a light diet. Food, like medicine, has four properties: cold, hot, cool, and warm, and five flavors: sour, bitter, sweet, pungent, and salty. Dysmenorrhea may also occur if you eat too much raw or cold fruits, cold drinks, salted, vinegar, seafood and other cold and sour foods during menstruation. Therefore, a light diet should be adopted during menstruation.

3. Be in a good mood. If you experience sudden, intense or long-term mental stimulation during menstruation, you may develop dysmenorrhea. During menstruation, Yin blood is depleted, Yang Qi is hyperactive, and emotions are easily agitated. Once there is worry, depression, and anger, it is very easy to cause Qi stagnation, blood circulation disorders, and dysmenorrhea. Therefore, during menstruation, you should consciously control your emotions to stay calm, happy and relaxed.

4. There should be a balance between work and rest. Proper labor and rest can harmonize qi and blood. Before menstruation, the body will experience symptoms such as back pain and weak legs due to physiological changes. If you are too lazy to move and sit or lie down all the time at this time, it will cause disharmony of Qi and blood circulation, leading to pain during menstruation. Therefore, you need to engage in appropriate activities before menstruation to promote the smooth flow of qi and blood. Of course, you should avoid excessive activity, otherwise the loss of qi and body fluid will also lead to dysmenorrhea.

5. When you have menstrual pain, buy some brown sugar, add a few slices of ginger, put it in a pot with water and boil it, then drink the water when it is warm enough, it can relieve menstrual pain.

6. Prepare a hot water bottle, but be careful not to make it too hot. About 60-70 degrees is enough. Then put it on your lower abdomen to relieve pain.

Through the above introduction, I believe that friends have a general understanding of the methods to relieve menstrual pain. I hope that these contents can help more female friends solve the problem of abdominal pain during menstruation. It is worth noting that you must not eat raw or cold food during menstruation, and try to keep your waist and abdomen warm. Only by keeping warm can you be healthier.
