Guest guest Posted September 20, 2006 Report Share Posted September 20, 2006 I started doing the oil pulling shortly after someone posted the link about how it could help menstrual problems and women's reproductive health in general. I don't know about the general part, but my period just started today, and I have some of the WORST cramps ever. Not that I'm going to stop the oil pulling. I have found that I actually enjoy it, have done it every day over the last 3 weeks (except today, as I had to be somewhere early, and didn't have time). 20 minutes each morning, expeller pressed organic sunflower oil. The sunflower oil has really no taste at all, though it does leave a pleasant aftertaste of sunflower seeds. The difference in my dental health has been radical, though. I used to have terrible tartar build-up (always been prone to it, no matter how often I visit the dentist or floss), and the tartar is all gone. My teeth feel really clean all the time now, I almost feel like I don't have to brush my teeth! I'll keep doing it, because I'm hoping that if I do keep it up it will help with my periods (have been quite painful with cramps and heavy flow and clotting for years).
