A member asked:
Can you tell me what "natural" (non-medicated) approaches can i take to helping with period pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Natural approaches: If you desire non-med approaches you can discuss use of a traditional herbal like black cohosh with your doctor. Chamomile tea can be soothing. Sipping green tea can also disipate pain. Avoid caffeine, alcohol, extra salt.Try: omega- 3 fatty acids or magnesium (supplementation or through die)t with your doctor’s approval. Acupuncutre is super for dysmenorrhea.
