Ive read too many threads about women who are in constant pain and suffering from heavy periods that affect life on a daily basis. A lot of women turn to contraception to help heavy bleeding, others have endometrial ablasion or go to extreme lengths and have a hysterectomy.
I too suffered with heavy painful periods, i ve always had to use a sanitary towel and tampon together to avoid leaking through my clothes.
I came across a home remedy that works to lighten bleeding and eliminate pain. On the first day of my period and all the other days im on my period i make a cup of camomile and honey tea (i suggest using 2 bags as the taste of blackstrap molasses is rank & 2 bags will weaken the taste) and add a tablespoon of molasses. Stir and drink!
you could try mixing molasses with milk or water which ive tried before but this made me gagg and almost want to throw up. You can also try other teas if you dont fancy camomile. Try nettle tea instead! i hope this works for anybody going through excruciating pain each month
