Can eating papaya help with menstrual irregularities and cramps? - #22025
I am really curious about how papaya and periods might be related. So here's the thing, I've been dealing with some really irregular periods lately. Like, sometimes they come early, and sometimes I feel like I'm waiting forever for them! 😩 I read somewhere that papaya could help regulate periods? I mean, I love eating papaya, but I'm not sure how it affects my cycle. Like, can it really do anything? I've also heard it can help with the pain during my periods too, which I would totally need! Sometimes the cramps are unbearable, ugh! I don't know if it's just my imagination, but every time I munch on some fresh papaya, it feels like my body is calmer. Legit! I tried checking some Ayurvedic sources and it said that papaya is great for balancing hormones, but I wonder how true that is. If anyone has any experience with papaya and periods, please help a girl out! Is there any special way to eat it, or should I just stick to my usual fruit salad? Thanks!!
