Why can women be sick with a belly?
In most cases, pain occurs due to hormones. During the premenstrual syndrome, the synthesis of prostaglandins can increase - special substances capable of causing reducing smooth muscles. A increased number of prostaglandin leads to a spastic reduction of the uterus and its vessels, ischemia develops, the fluid delay is formed, which increases the painful impulse. Related symptoms, such as headache, nausea, vomiting, are also explained by excess prostaglandins.
What needs to be done to reduce pain?
Vitamin E. The use of this vitamin at a dose of 300 mg per day in the first 3 days of painful menstruation gives a good therapeutic effect. Vitamin E improves blood coagulation mechanism and, therefore, will contribute to the derivation of menstrual clots. The passage of these bunches is sometimes the cause of strong monthly pain.
Vitamin B6. The elevated level of estrogen causes a fluid delay and swelling, which increases soreness during menstruation. Vitamin B6 plays an important role in the metabolism of estrogen and establishes the correct hormonal balance.
Potassium. It restores the water-salt balance in the body and contributes to the elimination of edema.
Magnesium. It contributes to maintaining a high-level ATP, which provides normal functioning and relaxation of muscles. When the ATP is lacking, convulsions appear in the muscles. Use products rich in magnesium: green vegetables, eggs, milk and fish.
Physical exercises. Do not refuse exercise during menstruation. However, intensive or power loads are not recommended these days, give preference to yoga or pilates. There is also an exercise that will help weaken the pain. Stand on your knees and elbows, so that the buttocks are at the highest point, stand in such a position of 5-10 minutes so that the blood is cast from the pelvis.
