How can I reduce menstrual cramps while at college?
By finally allowing yourself to satisfy your cravings without sabotaging your diet, you can keep the weight you lose off for good, saving yourself hundreds and even thousands of dollars in the process Get it now!
You can do the following things to reduce cramping: Avoid caffeine, alcohol, and nicotine. These stimulants will encourage your muscles to contract more frequently and with stronger force. Plus, who feels like having a shot or brew when there are shooting pains in your abdomen?
Get plenty of exercise. This is not only important for weight loss. Thirty minutes of exercise three times a week keeps the flow of blood and oxygen strong, so that your contractions won't be as painful.
Go for a jog or a swim. I know this sounds like the last thing you'd want to do when you're doubled over with cramps, but it will make your body release endorphins, those "happy" chemicals, which will ease the pain fast. Get to sleep.
An all-night party is okay once in a while, but you may find that once in a while means every weekend. But it is important, especially for menstruating females, to get enough sleep, since a well-rested body is better able to tolerate pain (so cramps won't feel as bad to you). Omega-3 fats.
Eating one serving twice a week of fatty fish (such as salmon or tuna) or some nuts (also high in omega- 3s) or flaxseeds will help your body control its output of prostaglandins. Heat is the best remedy. Soak in a hot bath for ten minutes (if one isn't available, try the whirlpool at the sports complex).
Keep an electric heating pad under your bed, and use it to heat your abdomen and help blood flow to that area. Sipping hot tea such as Traditional Medicinals' premenstrual syndrome (PMS) Tea will also help ease the pain. You can also use other caffeine-free herbal teas, which help increase blood flow to the cramp region and reduce the pain and frequency.
