How can I manage pain during menstruation and irregular periods?
Asked by Female, 25 · 1 month ago
Warm compresses, mild exercise, and, if appropriate, painkillers like mefenamic acid or ibuprofen can all help control menstrual pain. Stress management, maintaining a healthy weight, and hormone balance can all help with irregular periods, however occasionally hormonal therapy is required. See a gynecologist to rule out endometriosis, PCOS, or thyroid problems if pain is severe or cycles continue to be irregular.
