Ayurvedic Treatment For Menstruation Related Problems

 

Introduction: When girls enter puberty, their first menstruation begins. It happens through the vagina once a month in a fixed period which usually lasts for 3-4 days. For some women, it stops after 6 to 7 days. Time of menstruation: Generally, after the first menstruation, a woman's second menstruation occurs in 27 days and for some in 28 days. It is important for menstruation to occur at a fixed time according to the menstrual cycle. Due to this process, the uterus and reproductive system of women become pure and healthy and remain a suitable area for conception and the health of women also remains good. When the uterus, ovaries or reproductive system become diseased due to any reason.

Similarly, sometimes menstruation also comes in excess. This disease is caused due to the uterus turning over, weakness, jaundice, arthritis, blood accumulation in the uterus and excessive sexual intercourse. Symptoms: Loss of appetite, frequent urge to vomit, pain in the uterus, pain in the breasts, fast heartbeat, difficulty in breathing, complaint of insomnia, back pain, laziness due to constant tiredness, stomach ache and complaint of allergy in the body etc. are the symptoms related to menstrual disorder.
