Alleviates menstrual cramps and heavy bleeding
Get rid of the ibuprofen and use this instead! Not only does it help decrease bleeding (thank you Yarrow!) but the anti-inflammatory and pain relieving Ginger has been shown in several studies to effectively decrease menstrual cramps and pain.
Crampbark, as the name suggests, is a natural solution for menstrual cramps. This herb is rich in compounds that relax smooth muscle tissue, particularly the muscles of the uterus. By doing so, crampbark helps to ease the intensity and frequency of menstrual cramps. Its antispasmodic properties make it a go-to herb for promoting muscle relaxation and reducing the severity of uterine contractions during menstruation.
Ginger, renowned for its anti-inflammatory properties, has been a powerful ally in alleviating menstrual discomforts. Its natural compounds, gingerols, help to reduce prostaglandins, which are responsible for pain and inflammation during menstruation. This spice has a warming effect that eases muscle contractions, providing relief from cramps. Additionally, ginger's ability to combat nausea is beneficial for those who experience upset stomachs as part of premenstrual symptoms (PMS).
Yarrow, with its astringent and anti-inflammatory properties, has been traditionally used to address heavy menstrual bleeding. This herb helps to regulate blood flow by toning the blood vessels, thereby reducing excessive menstrual flow. Yarrow's ability to relieve pelvic congestion and inflammation makes it valuable in managing pain associated with menstruation. Additionally, its mild diuretic effect can help reduce bloating, contributing to an overall sense of comfort during menstruation.
Valerian, recognized for its calming properties, plays a role in alleviating menstrual discomforts related to stress and anxiety. By reducing nervous tension, valerian indirectly helps to ease symptoms such as irritability and mood swings during PMS. Its muscle-relaxant effects can also contribute to reducing cramps. Valerian is an excellent choice for those seeking a natural remedy to promote relaxation and emotional well-being during the menstrual cycle.
