Default ginger for menstrual cycle!

Wow...i just found out this..

A warming herb, ginger can promote perspiration when ingested in large amounts. It stimulates circulation, particularly in the abdominal and pelvic regions, and occasionally can promote menstrual flow. If you are often cold, you can use warm ginger to help raise your body temperature. When used topically, ginger stimulates circulation in the skin, and the volatile oils travel into underlying tissues.

I can also suggest you Castor Oil

Fold several layers of wool or flannel cloth, soak in castor oil and apply to the abdomen, then place a hot water bottle or other heat source on top of the cloth. Alternatively, the oil may be applied directly to the skin, then covered with a soft cloth and plastic wrap. Place a hot water bottle or other heat source on top of the cloth. With either method, allow the pack to sit for 30-60 minutes, and use for 3 consecutive days.

It works because.. Castor oil appears to relax the muscles involved in menstrual cramps
