Natural Remedies for Menstrual Cramps
🌸 I have always been using Advil, Ibuprofen, or Tylenol.
I used to take 1 every month during my period!
Ibuprofen use, even if just a few times a week can cause gut inflammation, increased gut permeability, depletes melatonin, folate absorptions, and B vitamins.
Ibuprofen has been shown to delay ovulation and lower progesterone levels in women.
Advil is also responsible for creating my acid reflux. I wanted a safer alternative.
I then tried all the natural remedies available on the markets, pills, supplements, herbs, tablets. All promising to help with menstrual cramps. None of them worked. I had still used the toxic Tylenol.
I finally found something that really help me to the point that I have not been taking toxic pharmaceutical products for years! Fewer drugs you will take and fewer cramps you will get eventually in the next cycles.
Below you will see the natural supplements that I found to work for me.
🌸 They are all listed below:
1. Before: I suggest starting with Quercetin days before and during the period, and the Histamine X listed below. Also, zinc supplements before the period, read below why.
2. During Menstrual Cramp RelLeaf and the Wish Cramp Release, you may need just one or both like me.
3. Extra supports: If all this is not enough there are some cramps patches below or you can try eco-hot water bottles. Try a gluten-free and dairy diet to see if that is the cause.
4. Keep it clean: I highly recommend using an organic feminine wash daily but especially during those days! recommended organic feminine wash below!
5. Feminine products: Use only organic and safe menstrual pads, medical-grade silicone cups, eco-friendly menstrual panties, organic feminine wipes, and organic lubricants.
Pure Encapsulations Quercetin
I saw an incredible reduction of menstrual cramps with this, it is even better if you start to take a few days before the period, such as a week before, and ake more during the first day of the period if necessary. Not only did I see an incredible improvement but it also made my period lighetr.
Quercetin is my new discovery!
Quercetin is found in foods such as broccoli, parsley, artichokes, butternut squash.
Quercetin belongs to a class of water-soluble plant pigments called bioflavonoids that cannot be produced by the human body. This quercetin is derived from Fava d’ anta tree.
Recommended for many functions such as supporting healthy enzyme activity, it contains one of the most bioactive bioflavonoids.
It offers immune support, Antioxidants support, Cellular support and maintain mast cell function!
It is part of my supplement collection!

Seeking Health HistaminX
🌷HistaminX by Seeking Health provides a combination of supportive herbal and plant-derived compounds that may work together to support seasonal comfort and a healthy inflammatory response.
Bioflavonoids quercetin, rutin, and luteolin may play a role in modulating the body’s histamine response. Made with Natural Nettle, Quercetin, Rutin, Bromelain Blend with Broccoli Seed Extract.
Quercetin is a powerful antioxidant that helps reduce cramps, prevents UTIs, and is good for overall hormone health. quercetin helps modulate inflammation and regulate blood sugar, two factors that are essential for balanced hormones and a healthy cycle.
I recommend taking quercetin during the menstrual phase to support healthy estrogen levels and keep inflammation levels low.
Nettles replenish magnesium in the body which helps reduce PMS, and they are a good source of iron, which can help build up the blood during and after menstruation.
The leaves of stinging nettles support respiratory health, a healthy urinary tract, healthy mucus membranes, and overall well-being.*
Bromelain, a proteolytic enzyme found in pineapple, helps support a normal inflammatory response, and the body’s healing processes and is sometimes used as a digestive enzyme.
Glucoraphanin, a compound found in plants in the genus Brassica (e.g. broccoli and cauliflower), supports healthy detoxification processes, a healthy immune system, and provides mitochondrial support.*
