Sat nam everyone, this is for people who are familiar with herbal medicine or

the such. Does anyone know of any herbal pills I could take for menstrual pain?

Sorry i had to ask because I only put herbal things in my body and was wondering

if any women are familiar with an herb or something that helps calm menstrual

pain especially during the first days (really hurts). I used to take advil but

prefer not to now.

 

love light peace,

 

maria.

Umeboshi and Miso soup are good too to warm up the tantien/hara/abdomen,

together

with hot ginger compresses or hot salt (nearly a lb )on this area. Normally,

castor oil

compresses are recommended before and after the periods. A great deal of

rest, too!

 

Take care,

Chama

Hi maria,

I am only in my first semester of herbs so don't know that many except for the

ones for external cold. A couple old favorites that some people sware by are

dong gui and also pearl powder. these of course are not for immediate relief

though. you may want to prior to your period be sure that you keep your lower

abdomen warm, stay de-stressed (free of liver qi stagnation), don't eat anything

cold or raw, and processed sugar including cold drinks. any of these will tend

to cause cramping, and clots in the menses.also, if you place a ball (golf ball,

or something like that) under your lower back (sacral) at the area where it

hurts it will relieve the cramping somewhat including the lower back aches

associated with it.

hope this helps,

Sat Nam,

melanie

Dear Maria,

Cramp bark is available and will quickly relieve cramps if taken as a

tisane- a hot tea. I am a herbalist and homeopath and would recommend cramp

bark for immediate relief.

Sat Nam,

Sangeet Kaur

I believe Raspberry leaf tea helps. Go to a good co-op or order it from

Frontier

Sat Nam,

 

I've been a bit behind in my email, but from what I can see no one has

mentioned the yogic aspect of menstrual cramps. In the book _The Gift

of Giving Life, volume 2_ there is a set for premenstrual tension

release. It says that as a part of a woman's cycle the overies lift and

tighten, then release with the menstrual flow. When the tensing of the

overies happens, sometimes the woman does not let the tension go, and

holds on, thus causing cramps and such. The set is good. It is fairy

difficult. I don't know how I could share it with you right now since

our scanner isn't working and I think it would be good to have the

pictures.

 

Someone else mentioned lots of rest, and I think this is very important

too. Our society often scoffs at the very idea of a woman taking it

easy before and during her period since it may suggest that woman are

"weak", but that is not the truth. It is a sacred, inward cleansing

time, and the break is really a gift for women who often never get

breaks.

 

Love Always,

Littlebird Leslie
