Patient's question:
I have been experiencing severe menstrual cramps recently for the past six months. Every time, from the time before my period to after it, the pain is extremely intense. Taking pain relievers makes my period disappear, so I have to endure it each time. Recently, I heard from my mom that she found a folk remedy for menstrual cramps, which is to use mugwort for treatment.What kind of help do I need: What are the effects and functions of mugwort?
Doctor's answer:
Speaking of Artemisia argyi, most people may not be very familiar with it, but if it's Artemisia argyi, everyone should know a bit about it, because Artemisia argyi has many uses, especially during the Dragon Boat Festival every year, when it is used to make sachets. It is said to have the effect of repelling insects.
