Introduction

Period cramps can range from mild discomfort to pain that disrupts your entire day. While medication can help, many people prefer natural remedies that relieve cramps and support long-term menstrual wellness.

Here are 10 proven ways to ease menstrual pain without relying only on painkillers.

1. Use Heat Therapy

A hot water bag or heating pad relaxes muscle tension and boosts blood flow. Pair heat therapy with soft, comfortable menstrual wear like Revaa Period Panties, which prevent irritation during cramps.

2. Light Exercise

Yoga, stretching, and walking release endorphins (natural painkillers).

3. Hydration Helps More Than You Think

Warm water reduces bloating, which contributes to period pain.

4. Anti-inflammatory Foods

Add:

• Ginger
• Turmeric
• Flax seeds
• Spinach
• Berries

These reduce prostaglandins (chemicals responsible for cramps).

5. Massage Your Lower Abdomen

Use circular movements with warm oil to ease muscle spasms.

6. Magnesium Works Wonders

Magnesium-rich foods like bananas, nuts, and leafy greens relax uterine muscles.

7. Avoid Excess Caffeine

It constricts blood vessels and worsens cramps.

8. Take Warm Showers

Heat + relaxation = reduced cramping.

9. Try Herbal Teas

Chamomile, peppermint, and cinnamon tea help reduce inflammation.

10. Maintain Good Menstrual Hygiene

Avoid synthetic, plastic-heavy products during painful periods.

Switch to breathable, soft materials like Revaa Period Panties that eliminate rashes and discomfort.
