How Can You Cope with Irritable Uterus Problems?
Irritable uterus contractions can make you uncomfortable and cause pain. But do not worry, most of the time it will not harm you or your baby. There are a number of techniques that can help you to cope with your uterine irritability contractions. The following is a list of some things that you should do to help yourself for relieving the pain:
Empty
your bladder regularly
Do not keep your
bladder full, empty it regularly. Make sure you empty it before going to bed. A
full bladder may put pressure on your cervix which can make the contractions
more intense and painful.
Avoid
heavy weight lifting
Lifting heavy
weighted objects can trigger contractions and cause your condition to worsen.
Get enough rest
Make sure that you
get a sufficient amount of sleep (at least 8 hours). Lack of sleep can put you
in a bad mood and make you exhausted. It also causes stress levels to increase
which can worsen the contractions. Keep your movement minimal by staying in bed
and relaxing.
Do not
stress out

much stress by not getting into arguments or unpleasant conversations. If you
feel that something is stressful for you, cut it out. Do not do strenuous
exercise or vigorous work. An increase in the stress levels in your body could
worsen the contractions and cause an irritable uterus. Draw your attention to
things like meditation. It can help you to relax.
Avoid
sexual activities

do not have any kind of sexual activity

also cause contractions in the uterus. Similarly, any kind of sexual
stimulation increases the production of oxytocin in the body. Oxytocin also
causes contractions in the uterus.
Eat
light

regular meals that can be easily digested. Go for foods that are rich in nutrients
and avoid processed foods. It will help to
reduce
the irritation in the uterus.

worsen.

side has been seen to calm the contractions and relieve pain most of the time.
It may help you to relax sometimes.

for any infections. Treat any underlying infections.
