Abstract
Period cramps can cause significant discomfort and negatively impact a woman’s life. While painkillers are commonly used for relief, they may have side effects and potential addiction risks. However, natural remedies such as honey offer a promising alternative. Regular exercise, yoga, and a healthy lifestyle can help ease the pain, but honey provides additional relief without side effects. This article explores various ways to utilize honey to alleviate menstrual cramps naturally. Combining honey with cinnamon, ginger, fennel, or chamomile can provide effective solutions due to their anti-inflammatory properties. It is essential to choose natural, pure honey without added preservatives or sugar. Additionally, maintaining a balanced diet, staying hydrated, and avoiding caffeine, alcohol, and junk food during periods can contribute to overall well-being and minimize discomfort. This article is based on the secondary source of data and limited to effect of honey on women’s health during the menstruation.
