Question about menstrual cramps?!


Question: Question about menstrual cramps!?
ive had a monthly since about a year and a half ago(if it helps)
and when i'm on my period
i cant tell whether i'm hungry or not, when i eat or even see food, my cramps get waaay worse, and i always want something sweet!.

the main question is just why do my cramps get worse when i eat!? but can u tell me why the other stuff happens too !?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Cramps may worsen during the digestive process because of prostiglandins!. Some women have more prostiglandins than others and unfortunately, they can leak into the intestines during menstruation and cause gas, diarrhea, and frequent bowel movements!. Perhaps this is causing you discomfort!.
Also, if you can't tell what your hunger signals are, it may be due to the bloating and water retention during your period!. It could cause you to feel full overall, and full prematurely while eating!.
Food cravings-for either salty or sweet food is perfectly normal(due to hormonal fluctuations), as are the other symptoms I have mentioned!. I have had them all!.
Also, if you've only had your period a year and a half, it will take a while for your periods to regulate!. Having long and or painful periods is normal for women who've just begun menstruating!.
ibuprofen, aleve-help ease menstrual cramps-for bad cramps you can take two every 4 hours during your period or worse cramping days-this will prevent them-hopefully or at least make you more comfortable
heating pads may help for your cramps/hot water bottle-helps me a lot
tampons may make cramps worse by preventing the flow from being excreted naturally-they tend to block things up sometimes

im the same way and can't tell what i want to eat so i just eat junk which is bad!. try salads or breads and soups but stay away from potassium(bananas) because your excretory system will become backed up!. drink cranberry juice and eat citrus and as far as other foods go stick to simple, not junk like i said!. trust me i have theee worst cramps and these tips seem to work!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
