Tips for Irregular Menstruation

Most women who haven’t gone through menopause have periods, and sometimes it can be irregular. FaithFirst Health Clinic & Urgent Care understands the struggle. Good thing there are some home remedies that can help you regulate your monthly “bloodbath”.

It’s time for yoga and meditation

Yoga has been shown to be an effective treatment for different menstrual issues. This includes irregular periods and menstrual cramps. Experts at our Urgent Care Clinic in Temple Hills, Maryland often recommend yoga for all our clients who express frustrations about their menstrual problems.

Aside from the hormonal benefits, yoga also helps maintain your weight – which is another factor for irregular blood flow.

Give ginger a chance

Aside from containing antioxidants, ginger has also been said to help treat irregular periods, and even relieve physical, behavioral, and emotional symptoms of PMS. However, there isn’t any scientific evidence showing the details of how ginger works.

Irregular menstruation doesn’t usually need Primary Care, but there are cases where you should consider speaking to your doctor. These are when:

• You have irregular periods, and you’re struggling to get pregnant.
• Your periods start to last longer than 7 days.
• Your periods suddenly become irregular and you’re under the age of 45.

There might not be anything wrong, but it’s better to be sure. If you need Urgent Care in Maryland, just drop by our clinic during operating hours or call us at 240-619-5620 to get in touch.
