Period cramps, or dysmenorrhea, affect approximately 50–90% of menstruating individuals worldwide, leading to significant discomfort, decreased productivity, and impaired daily functioning. In severe cases, about 1–5% of women experience menstrual pain so intense that they seek emergency medical attention. Traditional remedies, such as over-the-counter pain relievers, heating pads, and lifestyle changes, offer limited and temporary relief and often fail to address the root cause of the pain: intense uterine muscle contractions.
AstraRelief offers a streamlined and effective approach to managing period cramps through a single wearable device comprising two key components:
AstraRelief uses advanced technology to monitor, detect, and respond to menstrual cramps in real-time, providing targeted relief exactly when you need it.
The wearable device monitors muscle activity in the lower abdomen throughout the menstrual cycle
Increased nerve impulses and contractions are identified
Electrical stimulation is automatically delivered to reduce muscle tension and pain
