Menstrual Cramp Relief

[janet88]

My cramps not so bad after giving birth…but it’s the insomnia, headaches, backaches and loss of appetite that bugs me.

Bai Fong wan is good provided that you take on regular basis and the effect comes slower. I do have customers who give their dd bai fong wan on alternate days for the whole mth (when not having menses) and continue for 3 months and their dd recover from menstrual cramps. Then after 3 mths, their dd just take 1 does after menses. I do have customers coming back to thank me.


I grew up in a TCM store, now running my own tcm store so I am a strong believer in TCM. Even for my own kids, I will give TCM herbs before going to doc for faster medication.

For those who doesn’t want to take pills, you might want to consider boiling bazhen. But like what I say, if want to take TCM to get rid of the cramps for good, must take on alternate days when not having menses, which is why boiling bazhen is not liked by most pp bcos it is time consuming.

To say the truth, try to cut down on panadol. Even my panadol supplier doesn’t take panadol himself. It is really no good. But it is a fast relieve for pain.

I gotta question for you. Posted to you via PM, since the nature
of my query is irrelevant to this topic. :oops:

Don't drink green tea, grass jelly, don't eat pineapple or watermelon.


Drink ginger tea, helps a lot!

Hi,


the following sanitary napkin can help. Do give it a try. I was very skeptical and have thought that it was too expensive at first, but after my first month using it, I decided to stay on with it. Can't explain the technology behind it but basically the FIR and Negative Ion can regulate your menstrual flow. For me I experience significantly lighter flow thus changing less frequently(used to need to change 2 hrly on first 2 days). This breaks even for the price issue as I need not change so frequently and my menstrual duration is shortened too. Friend's gal has no more cramp first month into using. Regulate before menses arrive by using the liners(which also have the Negative Ion strips) 2 weeks before the 'M' day. That's how we experience the result in the 1st month. Do try it to feel the difference.

i used to have bad cramp too on the first and second day.

i find that exercise and stretching does help
Yoga (Yin) also helps, after practising for 6 months, i find that my periods are more regular and less painful

My doctor prescribed me Ponstan when I was a teenager. I asked her whether there would be any side effect or addiction to painkiller? She said since only took 1 tablet once a month, no problem la.


Stay away from cold drinks & ice cream even when not having period.

Taking rainbow light multivitamin, fish oil and black currant seed oil helps for me. Sometimes I take 2 capsules of fish oil a few days before AF.

I try not to take anything cold especially 1 week before menses.
if there is cramp or backache, I take paracetamol. sometimes, I do get migraines the day before menses or 1st 2 days...if migraine hits, then ponstan does help...but if taking ponstan, then have to take antacid.
