Answer to Question 1

4
1. Incorrect. Dietary changes such as the reduction of red meat may be recommended for women experiencing dysmenorrhea.
2. Incorrect. Increasing diuretics, including natural diuretics such as asparagus, cranberry juice, peaches, parsley, and watermelon may help reduce the symptoms associated with dys-menorrhea.
3. Incorrect. Exercise has been found to help relieve menstrual discomfort through increased vasodilation and subsequent decreased ischemia.
4. Correct. Heat minimizes cramping by increasing vasodilation and muscle relaxation and minimizing uterine ischemia.
