It sounds like your daughter is experiencing primary dysmenorrhea, which is quite common. From an Ayurvedic standpoint, these symptoms suggest an imbalance, often related to excess Vata dosha. The cold, dry, and irregular qualities of Vata can disrupt Apana Vayu, responsible for downward flow, leading to cramps and digestive issues during menstruation.
To bring balance, start with dietary adjustments. Encourage warm, easily digestible foods that nourish and ground Vata. She should have meals like warm soups, porridges, and well-cooked vegetables. Avoid cold, raw, or very spicy foods—these can aggravate Vata and worsen cramps.
Adding a pinch of hing (asafoetida) and a teaspoon of ginger to her meal can enhance digestion and reduce bloating. Sipping on warm herbal teas—like ginger tea with a dash of cinnamon—throughout the day can soothen and relieve pains.
Encourage a stable, warm daily routine. During menstruation, she should try to rest as much as possible, keep herself warm, and avoid physical exertion. Gentle yoga, such as child’s pose or seated forward bends, can relax the abdomen and relieve mild pain.
Regular oil massage, or Abhyanga, with warm sesame oil can help calm Vata. Focus on massaging the lower abdomen and lower back. She can do this daily or at least once a week.
For nausea and vomiting, roasted fennel seeds can be chewed post meals—it’s soothing and aids in digestion as well. Though these are supportive measures, if symptoms become unmanageable or severe, she should seek medical advice. Regular consultations with an Ayurvedic practitioner are recommended to further tailor her regimen and consider herbs like Ashoka and Lodhra for her specific dosha and constitution.
