control mood You, who are usually happy and friendly girl, d epronto you become Miss Ogre: scream and jump around to any comments. We know you can not stand the pain of menstruation are you getting such a beast. Right? Do not panic, is a normal reaction of premenstrual syndrome. You see, the hormonal fluctuation of estrogen and progesterone prior to your period, directly affects your levels of serotonin, a brain chemical that is responsible for mood swings. In addition, experts say that a calcium deficiency intensifies the hormonal fluctuations, which in turn leads to a reduction the level of serotonin in the brain. So the first plan of attack to control your temper in those days is to eat calcium-rich foods such as cheese, milk and ice cream. Seriously. Some studies have confirmed that women who consume 1,200 mg of calcium daily have fewer mood swings of premenstrual syndrome own.
Another tip to reduce the symptoms of menstruation is that a week before your period, make meals more often, ie, reduce the time between breakfast, lunch, snack and dinner. The explanation is that so you can keep sugar levels constant forever, and this is the best solution to not feel tired or have episodes of irritability. Eat less quantity but more times a day. You'll see how the syndrome and menstrual pain is reduced. A bad job!
2. Remove the swollen belly
mood swings, pimples, tiredness ... we do not have enough of this?, Paerce not because Mother Nature sent us a premenstrual discomfort, a bloated feeling in the stomach area. The culprit? Again, the alterations in the levels of estrogen and progesterone. As if it were a conspiracy chemistry, these hormones ordered the body to retain fluids until the period ends.
Your mission is to prevent this is to be more, but the pain of menstruation increases. Begins to reduce the amount of salt in the diet for another week of your period. And we do not mean that you throw in salads, also, but mainly to convenience foods, salty snacks to soups and on, for example, because the amount of sodium in its composition is very high. And drink more water than usual, because the more you ingest fluid during the days before the rule rather remove the body and that will make you feel less heavy and swollen. Menstrual cramps are reduced. If yet you do with a huge swelling, see your gynecologist about the possibility of taking some kind of pill. Due to drospirenone, a progestin that facilitates the removal of water and sodium, this pill will help reduce fluid retention.
3. Do not give up sex
For many women, sex and menstruation are two incompatible things, but the truth is that there is no obstacle, problem or risk to make love to your partner during those days, except on the very modesty and shame. What's more, there is evidence that sex (alone or with partner) can be a good way to end the pain and contractions that occur during orgasm, along with subsequent relaxation, relieve the intensity of cramps. The only thing special you need to do is be more careful hygiene. Put a couple towels on the bed and have hand wipes with which to wipe the finish. And remember, always use a condom.
