Menorrhagia is defined as a condition of excessive
bleeding in the menstruation phase of the menstrual cycle in the
reproductive age of a woman leading to heavy blood loss that can
interfere with the woman normal activities, as a result of disruption of
normal hormonal regulation of periods or disorders of certain
reproductive organs.
Prevention
For both primary and secondary menorrhagia
A. Diet
1. Lettuce
Flavonoids are plant pigments responsible for the color of flowers,
fruits, and sometimes leaves. Study shows that flavonoids supply us with
natural, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidants having great effect on
menorrhagia excess pain and on the heaviness of the period.
2. Flax seed oil
Flax contains high amounts of omega 3 fatty acid and lignans. It
also is a powerful antioxidant. Besides working together with vitamin K
in helping the circulation of blood and providing blood clotted vessels,
it also helps to reducing pain caused by menorrhagia.
3. Broccoli
Broccoli contains high amounts of iron, and vitamin C and K that not
only helps to relief the pain caused by menorrhagia, but also provides
iron, the mineral that is needed to prevent heavy blood loss special for
women with anemia. Vitamin K also increases blood clotting the damage
blood vessels.
4. Kelps
Kelps are large seaweeds. It grows in underwater forests in clear,
shallow oceans. It is rich in iodine and alkali that helps to balance
hormones caused by thyroid glands resulting in heavy flow of blood
during menstruation as well as containing incredibly high trace minerals
and vitamins to feed and nourish the endocrine glands.
5. Carrot
Carrots contain high amounts of vitamin A as well as antioxidants,
alpha carotene, and beta carotene. Vitamin A is required for normal
reproductive function, and development of ovaries and placenta that is
vital for women's menstrual cycle. It's antioxidants also help to reduce
menstrual pain caused by menorrhagia.
6. Fermented soybeans
Fermented soybeans are made from soybean. It contains large amounts
of vitamin K which is involved in the formation of calcium-binding
groups in proteins as well as helping blood clots caused by heavy blood
flow during menstruation.
7. Etc.
B. Nutritional Supplements
For both primary and secondary menorrhagia
1. Iron
Iron is essential for women suffering from menorrhagia. Since
excessive bleeding causes the loss of iron causing iron deficiency,
without enough iron our body cannot reproduce red blood cells to replace
those lost in bleeding resulting in symptoms of paller, weakness,
fatigue as well as increasing the risk of inflammation.
2. Vitamin B complex
Vitamin B complex is a liver tonic vitamin. It helps the liver to
convert the bad estrogen, xanooestrogen into weaker and less dangerous
forms and converts omega 6 oils into a form that can be used by the body
to produce the good type prostaglandins instead of dinoprostone
resulting in reduced bleeding during menstruation.
3. Cod liver oil
Cod liver oil contains high amounts of omega 3 fatty acids that
control heavy bleeding during periods. Since red meat and dairy products
contain arachidonic acid without balancing intake of omega 3 fatty
acid, this causes the over production of dinoprostone leading to
increased blood flow, and reducing blood-clotting ability.
4. Zinc
Besides having an important role in treating enlarged prostate in
men's health, this mineral is vital for the healthy functioning of the
reproductive system in women as well as maintaining hormone balancing.
5. Flavonoid
Flavonoid is a powerful antioxidant activity. It helps to protect
small blood vessels from damage resulting in protecting against the
blood loss of menorrhagia during menstruation.
6.Vitamin A
Vitamin A is an antioxidant. It works together with iron and copper
to help enhance the production of red blood cells. Vitamin A deficiency
has been found in women with menorrhagia.
7. Vitamin C
Besides being an antioxidant that helps our body to fight against
free radicals from building up and help the digestive system's
metabolism to reduce menstrual pain, it also helps excessive blood flow
during menstruation as a resulting of strengthening small blood vessels
known as capillaries.
