A few months ago, a friend told me her cramps vanished after she started fixing her gut health. I didn’t believe her — until I tried it myself.
I cut down on processed food, added probiotics and fiber, and focused on hydration. Within two cycles, the change was undeniable: less bloating, fewer cramps, better mood.
Doctors now know the gut and hormones are deeply connected through the microbiome. When your gut bacteria are balanced, estrogen metabolizes better — preventing excess buildup that can worsen PMS and pain.
So if you’re struggling with stubborn cramps, maybe it’s not just your uterus — maybe your gut is asking for help too.
