Question: My 12 year old is awaiting her 3rd period and she has really bad cramps with them. what do you recommend.....?
my 12 year old started her periods in february of this year, and her second one was in may, so that's 3 months apart. she still hasn't had her 3rd one. but the thing is, she gets really bad cramps with her period. what have you used or what do you recommend to relieve cramps? i want to have something on hand to help her with them.

thanks!!!!!!!

Answers:

have a hot bath then apply lavender or evening primrose oil. light exercise as well, like walking.



I drink plenty of water, eat a little bit of chocolate, and take plenty midol or pamprin. I also apply a heat pad thing here and there. its helped me for a couple years now, and i get really horrid cramps without my remedy.



I strongly advise that you DON'T use pain relievers...they just move the pain to another time! But what really works is brown sugar, no joke. Eat spoonfuls as soon as you get your period and it helps TONS!

Best wishes



Pamprin



Midol or eat pickles...



Warm water bottle on your tummy(:
