Period pain is pretty common. For some women, it is a small ache. For others, it ruins the whole day. If you live in Ontario, you may be in class, at work or on the Go train when cramps start.
Many women want to try natural options before taking pills. Natural options don’t always give guaranteed or speedy relief. But they are natural and harmless. Here are five simple ones, from stretching to period patches. They may not work the same for everyone, so try a few and see.
Moving around is the last thing you want when your stomach hurts. You don’t want to put more stress on your legs. But light movement can help. A short walk or a few stretches can loosen your back and belly. You do not need a gym. A little space at home is enough. You can do it in your backyard or space that doesn’t occupy many things.
Child's pose is an easy one. Sit back on your heels and stretch your arms forward on the floor. Stay there for a minute or two. A ten-minute walk after lunch also helps. Winter makes this hard in Ontario, so walk inside a mall or around your house. Do not push too hard. If a move hurts, stop.
Ginger tea is an old home remedy. Many people say it helps with cramps. Put a few slices of fresh ginger in hot water and leave it for ten minutes. Add honey or lemon if you like the taste.
Drink more water too. That’s the most basic and highly effective tip. When you do not drink enough, you can feel tired and bloated, and that makes period days feel worse. Keep a bottle near you at work or school. If you take medicine every day, ask your doctor before you start drinking a lot of ginger tea.
A period pain relief patch is one of the easiest options for busy days. You stick it on your skin and carry on. At PeriodFree, we make cooling patches that give a fresh, cool feeling on your lower belly or back. One patch lasts up to 12 hours.
Our patch is thin, so you can wear it under jeans or leggings. It has no pills in it. It uses three plant-based ingredients: menthol, eucalyptus oil and Boswellia serrata resin. You may notice a herbal smell at first. It fades after a short time.
Clean and dry your skin
Peel off the back and press the patch on
Take it off after 12 hours
Do not put it on cuts or broken skin. If your skin is sensitive, test a small spot first. Also avoid lotion or oil on the area before you use it.
Food will not remove cramps, but it can make you feel a little better. Many women crave junk food during their period. That is normal. Try to eat some good things too. Bananas, oats, nuts and leafy greens are easy to find in any Ontario grocery store.
Salty snacks and too much coffee can make bloating and jitters worse. You do not have to give them up. Just cut down a bit and see how you feel. You can also write down what you eat for two cycles. You may spot a pattern.
Pain feels worse when you are tired and stressed. Try to sleep a little earlier during your period. Lie on your back, put one hand on your belly and take slow breaths. Breathe in for four counts and out for six. Do this for a few minutes.
It will not take the pain away completely. But many women feel calmer after doing it. You can try it on a bus, at your desk or in bed.
Natural options help with normal cramps. But some pain is not normal. See a doctor if the pain is very bad, gets worse each month or stops you from going to work or school. Also go if you bleed very heavily or have pain outside your period. Do not ignore these signs.
You do not need to try all five remedies. Pick one or two that fit your day and give them a few cycles. Maybe you start with stretching at home and a cooling patch for school or work. If you want a pain relief patch for period days, you can order from PeriodFree. We ship free across Canada. Keep notes on what works for you, then keep doing that.
