Taking ginger reduces menstrual cramps during the menstrual cycle, and taking it in the first two to three days of the cycle reduces the pain; it is more effective when taken with pain relievers. To reduce pain or swelling, you either take the ginger by mouth (like tea or chewing fresh ginger) or apply it to the skin using a ginger patch.
