Menstrual Cramps

Cramps are a reality for most teens and women in their 20s and early 30s. They are caused by strong uterine contractions triggered by prostaglandins. These strong contractions cause the blood supply in the uterus to temporarily shut down and then increase the contractions and pain. A frequent change is observed in the woman throughout the lifetime. Gradually changes like breast development; evolution of hair in the arms and other body parts initiates the development both in biological and psychological changes.

These conditions may happen one at a time or all at the same time. Depending on the severity of the cramps and the other symptoms, this can hinder some women from going to school or work. Menstrual cramps happen because every month, the inner lining of the uterus would prepare for a pregnancy. Women suffering from mild menstrual cramp do not have to suffer more. In this condition the cramps occur only for few hours. It is barely noticeable. In this condition the main symptom is just a feeling of heaviness or bloating in the stomach area. And although there are a number of over-the-counter medications or even prescription anti-spasmodic medications, there are side effects associated with such medications, sometimes extreme side effects such as bleeding ulcers and liver damage.

However, excessive blood flow may result in a greater loss of iron, with a risk of anemia. An adult woman needs 18 mg of iron daily. Good sources are red meat, legumes, fortified cereals, leafy green vegetables, and dried fruits. The intensity of menstrual cramps on both the first and second days of menstruation was significantly lower by a little more that 50% in the aromatherapy group than in the placebo group or the control group. The root cause of painful menstrual cramps is lack of oxygen during ovulation. The uterine is a muscular organ. Every month the ovary releases an egg into the fallopian tube where it travels into the uterus.

Menstrual cramps take their toll on women. Several options are available to treat cramps that help to decrease the disabling pain and discomfort that some women suffer with each month. Healthy diet rich in vitamin, calcium, minerals should be taken regularly. Any kind of iron rich foods are very useful during this time. Calcium is noted to prevent any kind of menstrual cramps and keeps the muscle strong from back pain. Adding more whole grains, beans, fresh fruit and vegetables, and brewer's yeast to their diet have been found to be helpful to many women.

Although menstrual cramping is expected as long as the woman will have her monthly menstruation, having these pains can still be prevented. Aside from medicines and foods, there are many other ways that can help a woman alleviate menstrual pain. A warm bath, for instance, can help the body unwind and relax. It is a known fact that stress can only aggravate the pain. Although not all of these natural remedies for menstrual cramps are right for all people, they have all been proven in various studies and research to be effective at stopping menstrual cramps and menstrual pain.
