Hey all,

I wanted to share a bit about how I manage my menstrual cramps. I’ve noticed that staying active and doing light exercises like walking or gentle stretching really helps reduce the intensity of my cramps. I know it sounds counterintuitive, especially when all you want to do is curl up in bed, but getting my blood flowing seems to make a big difference.

I’ve also started doing some specific yoga poses designed to relieve menstrual pain, like Child’s Pose and Cat-Cow. It’s not a miracle cure, but it definitely takes the edge off the pain and makes me feel more relaxed. For those of you looking for non-medical options to manage cramps, I highly recommend giving exercise a try!

Hope this helps someone out there!
