How to Overcome Pain During Menstruation

Some teenagers women experience pain during menstruation. They are unable to engage in any activity for one to two days of the worst day of her menstrual period. So, how to overcome it?

Menstrual pain is called dysmenorrhoea occurs when the body produces too much prostaglandin. Hormone-like substance that is made in the egg sac and the uterine wall which served release of an egg from the ovary.

When prostaglandins are released, prostaglandins circulating through the circulatory system, reaching the uterus and lead to pain. Some of the women's body produces too much prostaglandin, whereas other women are too sensitive to prostaglandins.

In other words, some women are lucky enough not menstruate at all, while others experience painful menstruation for three to seven days.

If your periods are very severe, there are some things you can do, as quoted from the book Menjadi Remaja Sehat pubhlished by Mizan :

1. Add omega-3 fatty acids into your diet. Exercise and a healthy diet can be very effective.
2. Consume a single dose of 200 milligrams or 400 milligrams of ibuprofen every six hours or four times a day to control the production of prostaglandins. Acetaminophen (Tylenol) does not inhibit the hormone that causes the pain, so you can feel better after taking this drug.
3. If both of those things still have no any effects, consult your doctor. Professional handling would be more appropriate.
