Cream, 2.00 Ounces Product Description Emerita? is pleased to introduce Menstrual Comfort Cream?, the first topically applied cream specifically designed to address menstrual discomfort. Menstrual discomfort affects 50-60 percent of all menstruating women, and it may be due to decreased blood and oxygen flow to the smooth muscle of the uterus. This discomfort is also associated with the increased production of prostaglandins, hormones that can promote inflammation and spasmodic contraction of the uterine muscle, decreasing blood flow to the uterus. Prostaglandins are produced from fatty acids found in many tissues, including the uterus. Uterine production peaks before menstruation and can influence the level of discomfort. Some prostaglandins are produced from animal fats, and can initiate uterine contraction. Others come from plant-sourced fatty acids such as gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), and promote relaxation of the uterine muscle. Emerita Menstrual Comfort Cream is designed by female physicians to naturally provide comfort during the menstrual period. It specifically supports menstrual comfort with soothing herbal extracts and essential oils that may help to promote uterine blood flow, uterine muscle relaxation, and decrease inflammatory prostaglandin production.
