Is Tianma a food that treats menstrual cramps?

Patient's question:

Can taking Chinese medicine Gastrodia elata help with menstrual cramps? Also, is it better to eat something for ruptured calf fascia?

Doctor's answer:

Menstrual pain is particularly common among unmarried young women and girls in the early stages of menstruation. It is characterized by lower abdominal pain, such as distending pain, cold pain, burning pain, stabbing pain, dull pain, and aching pain, occurring cyclically during or before menstruation, often starting a few hours before vaginal bleeding.
Menstrual pain is a common and frequently occurring gynecological condition with multiple causes and complex mechanisms. It tends to recur and is difficult to treat. It is advisable to exercise regularly and strengthen your physical fitness in daily life. During menstrual pain, resting in bed and applying a warm compress to the lower abdomen can help alleviate symptoms.
