Dysmenorrhea – A myth or reality

Dysmenorrhea is a very real thing. The excruciating pain, draining fatigue, unstoppable headache, back pain, and joint ache makes the woman dealing with it a total hostage to the sickness. The founder of Welme, Preksha Chopra, explains it all.

In a country like ours where menstruation has never caught enough eyes of attention, I believe Dysmenorrhea, or what is commonly known as severe period pain often takes the back seat. But what could not be ignored is the fact that it is, indeed, a very real and grave condition. Periods are painful for most women, while the intensity of pain varies from individual to individual. Some feel mild discomfort, nausea, and headache; others could feel intense and unbearable pain, so much to an extent that they could not even get up from the bed. Apart from intensity, the duration of such pain also varies, commonly ranging from 1 day to 3 days. In my opinion, what frequently comes to the rescue for all these women is the over-the-counter medicines. These chemical-loaded pills sure give temporary and momental relief. However, in the long run, it is slowly rotting the body from within. What possibly could look as the next best option are the home remedies.

We Indians have grown dependent on bringing a solution to all kinds of sickness through natural home remedies. While it works for a few, patients dealing with dysmenorrhea hardly find any relief with such remedies. When they find no solution in OTC medicines and home remedies, they try seeking help with heating pads, ayurvedic roll-ons, and creams. Since a solid-proof solution to dysmenorrhea is still under medical research, all these solutions are just momentary relievers.

In this entire deal, what we can’t miss out on is that dysmenorrhea is a very real thing. The excruciating pain, draining fatigue, unstoppable headache, back pain, and joint ache makes the woman dealing with it a total hostage to the sickness. Dysmenorrhea would only be considered a myth by the ones who live away from the understanding and consideration for it. Research papers by the most progressive and advanced doctors of the country also suggest that period pain or dysmenorrhea could be as bad as living through a heart attack. Well, this tells nothing but about the intensity of the situation and the severity of the need to find an early and reliable solution to it.

As we stand by all women dealing with Dysmenorrhea, we took a responsibility to contribute towards easing their lives whilst relieving the intense pain. At Welme, we have specially developed a Period Pain Relief Device which is non-invasive, safe to use, reliable, and highly efficient. Based on the most popular and scientifically-tested technology in suppressing pain, TENS therapy, our device ensures that every woman lives a life pain-free.

We believe in strong women who are built to dismantle the shackles and rule the world. And while they are at it, we do our bit to make their journey a little easy and pain-free.
