Many women complain about cramps, fatigue, nausea even constipation during our periods. What really helps here is eating potassium-rich foods as we tend to lose a lot of blood. Some of the easiest sources of potassium-rich items are bananas, beans, green leafy vegetables and fish! Potassium-rich foods prevent water retention so that you won’t feel bloated.

Having a ready period kit for you is a great confident booster so that you do not need to worry about getting your needful supplies as and when you get your period. It’s like a small vanity bag with all the items such as sanitary pads, tampons, cotton swabs, painkillers or even spare underwear and disposable bags to stow away all the used items destined for the trashcan. Don’t forget to keep a body spray in the bag too!

It may sound contradictory with all the muscle cramps and pain, but it actually works! Exercise like mild stretching or yoga makes your muscles flexible and does not allow it to retract easily which usually creates the cramps in the first place. So do some light yoga which would increase immunity and stamina. Yoga also regulates the blood flow without much pain.
