Menstrual Health: Here Are Some Tips For Healthy Periods

Regular exercise helps to reduce period cramps and discomfort. Exercise can help regulate menstrual cycles and reduce period pain. Periods are a biological process in which blood is shed through the vagina. It is a shedding process in which the uterine lining, known as the endometrium, sheds itself. Periods begin during the adolescent ages and last till the age of 45-50 years in a female's life. Women have a 28-day menstrual cycle, however, this varies from person to person. Many women experience abdominal cramps, vomiting, loose movements, leg discomfort, and weakness during their periods. From the awful premenstrual syndrome (PMS) causing mood swings, migraines, and agonising stomach cramps to dealing with the discomfort for five days of your period is indeed difficult. Here are some tips for a healthy period: Exercise Regular exercise helps in reducing period cramps and discomfort. Exercise can help regulate menstrual cycles and reduce period pain. It helps release endorphins which can boost your mood and energy levels, reduce stress, and promote better sleep. Regular exercise can also reduce inflammation, which can help reduce cramping and other period-related discomforts. Additionally, exercise can help to regulate hormones, which can reduce irregular periods. Yoga can assist with menstruation cramps. To alleviate cramps, several movements stretch and relax the muscles. It has been discovered that women who practise yoga on a daily basis have regular periods with less pain. Diet Eating a healthy, balanced diet can help to reduce period cramps and other symptoms. Try to avoid processed foods, sugary foods, and caffeine. You can include iron and protein-rich foods which will help you stay full for longer during your period. 2.Supplements Taking supplements such as magnesium, calcium, and vitamin B can help to reduce period cramps. According to Dr. Rishma Dhillon Pai, consultant gynaecologist & Infertility specialist, Jaslok, Lilavati & Hinduja Healthcare Hospitals, Mumbai, Oral tablets for 3-5 days during menstruation or hormone tablets for a few months will help to manage heavy periods. Hydration Drinking enough of water is generally advisable, but it's especially vital during your period. Keeping hydrated will help you avoid dehydration headaches, which are typical menstrual symptoms. 3.Heat Therapy The usage of a heating pad is one of the traditional natural therapies for the menstruation pain. Cramping is induced by contractions in the uterine muscles. When you apply heat to your abdomen, the uterine muscles relax. Fennel Tea Fennel tea is another herbal beverage that you might drink when you're feeling sad. Fennel has been shown in studies to be effective in lowering menstruation pain. Consuming fennel four times a day for three days before the date has been proven to reduce cramping.
