Do you believe that medication is always necessary to alleviate cramps? I'm interested in hearing about your personal experiences and opinions on whether certain dietary adjustments or alternative remedies can help manage cramps effectively without relying solely on medication?

Hi there, I hope you are well. If I've to share my personal opinion as a nutritionist, and menstrual health advocate, I've never had medicines till date to alleviate cramps. Here's what you can do. 1) Incorporate enough fibre in your diet as it can help with better digestion and reduce digestion related issues during menstruation. 2) Protein is necessary for healing, and recovery,and it can reduce cravings, as well. 3) Drink herbal teas such as chamomile, spearmint, etc. 4) Avoid excessive caffeine intake or alcohol. 5) Drink more water during this phase. 6) Have a balanced meat with fruits, vegetables, beans, lean meat, eggs, dairy and dairy products, nuts, and seeds, green leafy vegetables, etc. 7) Opt for soups and lighter meals during this phase. 8) Sleep well, the more rest you take the better you will feel. 9) A heating pad is a hero. 10) Listen to calming music and ensure to do some physical activity, it really helps :) Take care ✨
