What should women eat for menstrual cramps?

Patient's question:

Female, 25 years old, my body is relatively weak, especially during my period, when I suffer from severe menstrual cramps. What should women eat to alleviate menstrual cramps?

Doctor's answer:

If you are experiencing severe menstrual cramps, it is recommended that you take pain relievers orally to temporarily alleviate the symptoms. However, it is not advisable to take them frequently, as this may lead to drug resistance. Additionally, consider that this condition may be caused by a cold in your body, often resulting in pain in the abdominal area or menstrual cramps. It is suggested that you pay attention to self-regulation and care in your daily life. Avoid spicy and irritating foods, and you can drink some brown sugar water or apply cold compresses to your lower abdomen.
