Women who experience menstrual pain consume pain medications that are sold freely so that it will be very risky if done for a long time. Ginger contains several chemical components such as gingerol, shagaol and zingerone which can provide anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antioxidant effects. In overcoming menstrual pain, ginger works by suppressing prostaglandin and leukotriene synthesis which is one of the causes of menstrual pain. Other treatments for hiad pain can be given coconut water. Coconut water has a lot of nutrients, vitamins and minerals that are high so it can stimulate the production of progesterone in a stable amount so that it can facilitate the process of decay of the endometrium and the pain that arises will soon pass.
