Menstrual pain is something many experience, but how do you know if what you’re feeling is normal or a sign of something more serious? In this episode of the Muscle and Joint Podcast, we dive deep into the causes of menstrual discomfort, the difference between primary and secondary dysmenorrhea, and the most effective ways to manage pain. While mild cramping is common, severe or persistent paincould indicate underlying conditions such as endometriosis, fibroids, or chronic pelvic inflammatory disease.

We explore a variety of pain management strategies, from NSAIDs and heat therapy to dietary changes and exercise, but also highlight non-pharmacological approaches like chiropractic care, physiotherapy, massage therapy, and TENS therapy. Research suggests that pelvic floor physiotherapy, spinal mobilization, and deep tissue massage can help improve pelvic alignment, circulation, and muscle function, providing relief from menstrual discomfort.

If period pain is interfering with your daily life, it’s time to take control. Learn about the best evidence-based treatments, when to seek professional help, and how a comprehensive, holistic approach can improve menstrual health. Tune in for expert insights and practical tips to help you move through your cycle with greater ease.
