Revamp your Menstrual Cramp

1/31/2018

 
Use hot water bottle to decrease lower abdominal pain
Exercising Regularly Can Decrease Pain during Menstruation
​Every girl born in this world experiences menstruation or periods, normal vaginal bleeding that happens as part of a woman’s monthly cycle. This monthly cycle can be severely painful in the case of some women and is called as dysmenorrhea. This is the most commonly reported menstrual disorder and more than 50% of menstruating women experience some kind of pain for 1-2 days every month.

Dysmenorrhea
Dysmenorrhea can be classified as primary and secondary, each having different causes. Primary dysmenorrhea is the most commonly prevalent period pain (menstrual cramps) which is not caused due to other external factors but by natural chemicals called prostaglandins made inside the lining of the uterus. The pain can start a day or two before the periods and last for a few days in most women, while in some it can last for a much more prolonged period. The intensity of pain decreases with age. Usually there is intense pain just after a girl starts having her menstrual cycle and it becomes better as she ages. The pain also subsides or is minimal after giving birth to a baby.

Secondary dysmenorrhea is caused due to a disorder in the reproductive system. It occurs at later stages of life than primary dysmenorrhea and the pain worsens over time, instead of getting better.

The pain associated with secondary dysmenorrhea lasts longer than normal menstrual cramps, starting a few days before the onset of periods, reaching its peak during menstruation and continuing even after your periods ends.

Bear the Pain
Painful periods are mostly characterized by menstrual cramps which are a throbbing, cramping pain in your lower abdomen. Other common symptoms of pain include lower back pain, nausea, diarrhea and headaches. People often confuse this with premenstrual syndrome or PMS which is entirely different and whose symptoms include weight gain, bloating, irritability and fatigue. If you are interested in knowing more about PMS, please visit the website www.firsteatright.com.

Instead of relying on medication to relieve pain, try generic pain relieving techniques such as:
  • Hot water bath
  • Doing few exercises
  • Use a heating pad or hot water bottle to decrease pain in your lower abdomen
  • Try relaxation techniques such as yoga and meditation
  • Don’t smoke or drink

Opt for medication only when you get fever with your periods pain, you are over 25 years of age and get cramps suddenly for the first time, pain remains even when you don’t have your periods or the cramps become worse suddenly. It is advisable to meet your physician when you experience such pains. The physician will run through your physical history, do a pelvic exam and suggest medications depending on the type of dysmenorrhea.

If you have primary dysmenorrhea, your healthcare provider might suggest using hormonal birth control or pain reliever medication. If you have secondary dysmenorrhea, treatment depends on the source of the pain and in some cases, even surgery might be suggested.
​
Women who exercise regularly have less menstrual pain comparatively. To prevent/reduce pain, it is recommended to make exercise a part of your daily activity.
