What do you do for your cramps?!
Question: What do you do for your cramps!?
Some of my friends have weird "remedies" for their cramps but they don't seem to work for myself!. The only thing I find really works is Midol but I don't want to have to rely on that all the time!. I've tried exercising and jogging my cramps away but it's made them worse!. Eating bananas did nothing for me either!. Do you have any suggestions or weird home remedies for period cramps!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
Hot water bottle, chocolate, and painkillers!. Thats all, sorry!.
But it got a lot better after I went on the pill!. That, and with the pill I can skip two periods so I only get it once every three months!. According to my doctor thats fine and dandy :)Www@Answer-Health@Com
