The cramps and discomfort during periods (menstruation) are a common problem that most women of reproductive age go through. It usually occurs in the form of sharp pain in the lower abdomen, which often spreads to the lower back and thighs. Sometimes it becomes so unbearable that it becomes difficult to even do everyday tasks.
Painkillers (NSAIDs) are commonly used, but recent research suggests that yoga can be just as effective; in fact, it is a natural option for reducing period cramps.
Dr. Mukta Kapila, Senior Director and HOD of Obstetrics and Gynecology at FMRI (Gurgaon) says that in most cases, discomfort during periods is caused by substances such as hormones called prostaglandins. These substances contract the uterus to expel the uterine lining. Yoga can help a lot in this. Let us know how yoga benefits with the combination of asanas (body postures), pranayama (breathing exercises) and meditation.
