Advance Menstruation Signs And Symptoms

Around 90 percent of all women get advance warnings when her menstrual period arrives. These warnings are referred to as menstruation signs and symptoms. In some women these symptoms can be very mild while in some it can be so dreadful that even the thought of periods can turn a woman off.

Different women have different kinds of symptoms. In some cases there may be more than one symptom also. Some of the common symptoms are - backache, bloating, constipation, pain in the inner thighs, nausea, diarrhea, menstrual headaches or menstrual migraines, tender breasts and irritation.

Some women go through peculiar mood swings during menstruating period. They have feelings of anxiety, irritability and very drastic mood changes. These symptoms show when the bleeding in a woman starts. These signs are referred to as premenstrual syndrome. These occur because of imbalance of estrogen and progesterone. If there is higher activity of estrogen then there is feeling of anxiety and if there is progesterone then feelings of depression dominate the woman.

The main cause of these symptoms is an irregular diet and changes in the hormonal level of the body. As the hormones in body of a woman go through extreme volatility every month, it is very essential that the women have a proper diet. But very few of them maintain their diet and nutrition. As a result their body cannot handle the changes and suffer from these symptoms.

There are some natural cures for premenstrual syndromes as well. Vitex or Chaste tree acts directly on the root of the problem hormones. A special kind of tea made from Yarrow plant is also regarded as a traditional cure for premenstrual syndromes.

One of the most common symptoms of menstruation is cramping around the uterus. Most women go through this condition which is very uncomfortable and painful also. In fact there are two kinds of cramping that women face - spasmodic cramping and congestive cramping. This feeling of cramping is caused because of the over activity of the chemicals 'prostaglandins' in her body. They contract the soft muscles around the uterus.

Spasmodic cramping can be solved by following a diet rich in liblenic and linoleic acids mostly found in fruits and vegetables. While to solve the problem of congestive cramping, one should avoid dairy and wheat products, caffeine, alcohol and sugar.

Exercise also helps deal with cramping as the amount of blood and oxygen will increase when you exercise. Some amount of cayenne pepper with food that you take also helps in improving your blood circulation. Meditation and massage are also good ways to get relief from cramps. Ginger root tea is another solution. Ovarian Kung Fu is another good alternative not only to solve cramps but also to ensure a safe transition in the menstrual cycle.

Finally you need to remember that women do not only have bad menstruation symptoms but also have some good ones. In fact some women experience positive menstruation symptoms such as relief, feeling of euphoria, release, new beginning, connection with nature, invigoration, creative energy, increased sex drive and exhilaration, and intense orgasms.
