The pain women experience with their monthly cycle is often considered a normal part of being a woman and rarely is addressed to the point of helping her live completely pain free. Menstrual cramps and endometriosis pain often become symptoms women ‘live with’ and we both under assess and under-treat women who have monthly pain related to their cycle. In this episode I talk about how cramps happen, how to tell the difference between endometriosis related cramps and menstrual cramps, and how nutrition plays a role in the development and severity of menstrual pain.
I offer ongoing videos, blog posts and Q and A style live trainings on women’s health in my Facebook group Women’s Health Unplugged. You can become a member here.
