Herbal Solutions in Maharashtra’s Tribal Communities

 Tribal women in Maharashtra have a rich tradition of using herbal remedies to alleviate menstrual discomfort. The leaves of the "Chili Phool" plant are often boiled and consumed as a decoction to reduce menstrual cramps and balance hormonal levels. Additionally, women in these communities also use "Ajwain" (carom seeds) mixed with jaggery for relieving pain. These simple, natural treatments not only provide relief but also demonstrate the deep connection between traditional knowledge and well-being.
