What foods and/or teas can help with period pain?

Question

I really need to know, its kinda getting bad!

Thanks =)

Answer 1

I read in some magazine that really cold and really hot drinks the week b4 ur period can give u cramps. Myb try drinking water out of the tap instead of the fridge and not have hot tea/coffee in the week b4 ur period. I used to do that and it kind of helped. Does taking pain killers help - like paracetamol? It helps me.

Answer 2

I find that peppermint tea helps me, also eating chocolate makes me feel better...and a wheat bag heated up and placed on my stomach! also make sure you get good nights sleep around this time as this also helps!

Answer 3

Avoid salty and fatty foods. Also exercising helps. And hot baths!

Answer 5

Hot shower or bath with an herbal soap, bath soak or aromatherapy.

Comfort foods (any foods that just make you feel good) its all mental.

A heating blanket or pad, laid over your abdomen. It will help to ease the muscles that are cramping up.

Chamomile tea, helps to calm the body and mind. Relaxing.

Meditate and de-stress. Chill out and watch a movie or read.

Do some yoga stretches or some exercise. It helps to do some physical activity sometimes as it also helps to ease the muscles.
