Exercise is usually recommended for women experiencing menstrual pains because it improves blood flow to female organs, relaxes the organs and the mind, relieves stress and improves well-being. Mild to moderate exercise has been shown to increase the release of endorphins from the brain which acts as a potent analgesic effective in reducing pain.
Exercises like brisk walking, treadmill, moderate cycling, swimming and yoga are effective in reducing the severity of menstrual pain. Women who often experience menstrual pains should avoid sedentary lifestyle and benefit from the painkiller effect of exercise.
