Are there some dietary changes that I can make to ease this?—Ms SHeavy blood flow during menstrual cycle is what doctors call menorrhagia. The tips below only help you manage the period with some ease but does not cure the underlying reason for the heavy flow. Take an oral iron tablet a day — any over the counter tablet would help. Vitamin B6 or pyridoxine (50-100mg) also helps ease menstrual cramps, chest soreness and water retention so you take a supplement tablet a week prior, during and a few days after each cycle. Foods rich in B6 include potatoes, banana, avocados, soya bean, walnuts, milk, cabbage, carrots, peanuts and pecans.
