Simple Diet Tips to Regulate Irregular Periods Naturally!

Do your periods not come on time? Or when they do, are they very late, or do you have light spotting for many days? Irregular periods are a problem for about 30% of women in their fertile years.

Today, we will tell you about a simple diet change that you can follow every month to help make your periods regular.

You need to eat 4 different seeds: flax seeds, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, and pumpkin seeds. Eating these seeds on different days of your menstrual cycle can be very helpful. Now, let’s see which seeds to eat and when.

Your period cycle has two parts:

1. Follicular phase (day 1-14)
2. Luteal phase (day 15-28)

In the follicular phase, you should eat flax seeds and pumpkin seeds. For the whole 14 days, you can eat 1-2 tablespoons of these seeds in different ways—like mixing them in yogurt, smoothies, oats, or even in laddus.

Flax seeds have lignans that act like estrogen in the body and help balance hormone levels. Pumpkin seeds help produce progesterone, which lowers androgen levels and prevents problems like PCOS.

In the luteal phase, you should eat sesame seeds and sunflower seeds. You can eat 1-2 tablespoons of these seeds every day by mixing them in protein bars, fruit salads, soups, or yogurt.

Sunflower seeds have vitamin E, which increases progesterone levels and also helps improve fertility. It also reduces PMS (Premenstrual Syndrome) symptoms.

Sesame seeds have compounds that balance both estrogen and progesterone levels. This helps keep hormones balanced and periods regular.

So, add these seeds to your diet and say goodbye to irregular periods!
