Easing Menstrual Problems

Many women experience mild discomfort just before and on the first day or two of their menstrual periods – usually mild cramps and perhaps a headache. But for others, premenstrual symptoms are severe enough to disrupt their daily lives. These can include mood swings, irritability, depression and anxiety, along with bloating, breast pain and weight gain. With the use of some effective homeopathic womens health products we will show you how to make the time of the month just like any other.

There are many ways that women can help themselves to cope with the weeks before their period. Some self-care tips include:

  • Eating a healthy, well balanced diet rich in vegetables, fruit and whole grains
  • Exercising regularly
  • Maintaining regular sleep patterns
  • Practicing relaxation techniques such as meditation, yoga or deep breathing exercises
  • Adding calcium and vitamins to your diet
  • A hot water bottle or castor oil pack relieves pain and cramping
  • Hot bubble bath and aromatherapy massage
  • Recording and tracking PMS symptoms in a journal
  • A good support system offering understanding and empathy also helps – a spouse, partner, family members or friends

As well as these there are also several herbal and homeopathic remedies available that are 100% safe, effective and non-addictive.

Femalite is a liquid herbal formula especially for women and the effective treatment of the symptoms of Pre-menstrual Syndrome (PMS). It contains three powerful ingredients – Fennel, Pulsatilla and Melissa – to treat the most troublesome symptoms of PMS.

Getting The Balance Right

Hormones play a vital role in every woman’s health and well-being.  Hormonal balance during a woman’s life may be influenced by a variety of factors such as nutrition, diet, lifestyle, exercise, stress, emotions, age and ovulation.

Natural remedies also have a long history of use in promoting female reproductive health and hormonal balance – assisting women throughout the ages to stay healthy before and during the menstrual cycle, as well as during the perimenopause and menopause without unwanted side effects.

Dong Quai  is a chinese herbal remedy that prevents symptoms of menopause and PMS, helps with menstrual cramps, corrects hormone imbalance, relieves some of the symptoms of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, and acts as general tonic for female reproductive system. Dong Quai has been used for centuries by Asian healers to support balance of female hormones and to promote hormonal health during the menopause and perimenopause. More recently, clinical research has confirmed the effectiveness of this tonic herb.

Combatting Heavy Periods

Normal menstrual flow can vary from woman to woman depending on a variety of factors. However, in a large proportion of women, menstrual flow may become heavier due to a variety of reasons, ranging from the natural changes experienced during menopause to other factors including hormonal imbalances, fibroids, uterine cysts and polyps, some forms of cancer and certain medications. Intrauterine contraceptive devices (IUD’s) may also lead to excessive bleeding.

If you have suffered recent increases in flow then it is obviously important to consult your GP to asses what the actual cause is.

In the meantime you may also want to consider Mens-Reduce, a safe and effective herbal and homeopathic remedy for reducing excessive menstrual bleeding and regulating a woman’s cycle. Mens-Reduce comes in a convenient and easy-to-use tincture form and promotes normal menstruation and reduces heavy menstrual flow.

Endometrial Health

The endometrium is a special type of tissue that usually lines the inner walls of a woman’s uterus. During a woman’s normal menstrual cycle, the endometrium within the uterus becomes thickened and prepared for the possibility of conception and pregnancy.

This occurs under the influence of hormones in the blood stream. If conception does not occur, the hormone levels decrease and the endometrium comes away from the wall of the uterus and is shed through the vagina – known as menstruation, or a monthly period.

Endo-Ex is a safe and effective natural remedy for promoting female reproductive health, and especially the health of the endometrial lining. it contains herbs known for their liver strengthening and hormone-balancing properties, enabling you to maintain a healthy liver and female reproductive system.

Moods Swings

The imbalance between progesterone and the hormone oestrogen contributes to the emotional symptoms of PMS such as depression, anxiety and irritability.  Try MindSoothe or Triple Complex Mood Tonic to help calm anxiety and depression.

Take Action

The time of the month doesn’t have to be something to dread any longer. Herbal and homeopathic remedies are 100% safe, effective and non-addictive, and have been used by herbalists for centuries to promote female reproductive health throughout the menstrual cycle.

Just remember it is important to keep a regular check on your cycles and you are advised to consult your GP if:

  • Your cycles are shorter than 21 days
  • You go more than 35 days between menstrual periods
  • You have any spotting or bleeding between periods.
  • You bleed heavily for more than a week, quickly soaking through your tampons or pads.
  • You pass large clots of blood
