Manage episode 400729929 series 2504937
Are you experiencing chronic pain around your period? Join Dr. G in this insightful episode as he delves into the often-overlooked root causes behind menstrual cramps and explores evidence-based interventions for lasting relief. While conventional medicine often resorts to suppressing symptoms with medications like birth control, Heal Thy Self is here to uncover the underlying issues and offer holistic approaches to healing.
Dysmenorrhea, or period pain, affects a significant number of menstruating individuals, with estimates ranging from 45% to 95%. In this episode, we distinguish between primary and secondary dysmenorrhea, shedding light on the prevalence, impact on quality of life, and factors influencing its severity. From hormonal fluctuations to genetic predispositions and environmental exposures, we dissect the multifaceted nature of period pain that conventional medicine may miss.
Hear from Dr. G on solutions to heal – from dietary modifications, herbal remedies, nutraceuticals and even acupuncture. Learn how anti-inflammatory diets rich in omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants can mitigate inflammation and prostaglandin production. Dive into the world of phytotherapy with herbs like ginger, cinnamon, and chamomile. Explore the role of magnesium, vitamin B complex, and other micronutrients in hormone regulation and muscle relaxation. Plus, uncover the benefits of stress reduction techniques, and heat therapy in alleviating menstrual discomfort and promoting overall well-being in this week's episode.
