 5)- Medicine:

Sometimes, the cramps and bloating we experience is unbearable and we have no control in what we do. Don’t hesitate to use pain relief tablets if prescribed by the gynecologist, when the symptoms are at their maximum. 

Taking fenugreek seed powder three times daily for the first 3 days of menstruation can help in reducing the pain. Sesame, ginger, coconut water, cinnamon, cumin seeds are also very effective in regulating menstrual flow and also relieving cramps.

6)- Maintain Hygienic Conditions:

Where there is moisture, there will be a growth of micro-organisms. It is advised to wash the genital part for at least twice a day. Always wash the area backward that is from the vagina to the anus. Do not use harsh cleaning agents. Change the sanitary products for every 4 hours.

 Wash your hands after changing your menstrual product. Improper washing may lead to urinary tract infection, vaginal infections and skin rashes.

 7)- Best Food To Take:

It is better if calcium intake is increased. Eat meat, leafy vegetables, fruits, yogurt, fish, dark chocolates and have light foods. Avoid salt, Caffeine, Alcohol, excessive workouts. When your period is around the corner, avoid spicy and salty food. Junk foods increase the risk of clotting and lead to immensely painful cramps. Drink plenty of water and keep yourself hydrated.

  8)- Yoga and Exercise:

Rather than practicing exercise just before your date time if we incorporate yoga in your daily routine, it helps in the long run. Yoga asana like Bound Angle Pose, Reclined Bound Angle, Child's Pose, Wide-Angle Seated Forward Bend, Reclining Twist, Inverted leg pose, 

Head to Knee Forward Bend, etc., helps in easing the pain as well as tones up the body muscles to withstand the menstrual process inside the body.

Menstruation signifies the motherhood. Every woman is unique in her body structure and has the corresponding immunity power and bearing capacity. Technological advancements have induced laziness and indifference in the attitude of the teenagers towards their health which has its consequences. 

Most of the problems like excessive pain and irregular periods arise due to unhealthy eating habits. One should take responsibility for their body process to lead a healthy life.

When a woman menstruates, the body discards the monthly buildup of the lining of the uterus. Menstrual blood and tissues flow from the uterus through the small opening in the cervix and pass out through the vagina. This uterus lining builds up to prepare for pregnancy. If the woman is not pregnant, estrogen and progesterone hormone levels fall which is a signal for your body to begin menstruation.
