I could write all day long on specific reasons why you are experiencing Period Pain, but it probably won’t mean much to you. For woman in general, it all boils down to blood issues, whether it’s the movement of blood, or the quality of your blood. When I say quality, I mean, you may be missing certain elements in the blood such as Iron, or there are physical blockages which does not allow blood to move properly, therefore, those elements can’t reach all the cells efficiently.
Time for a different approach?
So what can you do? In reality, I wouldn’t do anything until you speak with someone knowledgeable about your specific case. You can consult with Dr. Google, and I’m sure you will find many supplements and regimens which may help, but if you are not getting to the root cause of the problem, you are only masking the issue.
