How to relieve cramping?

Question

best way to soothe period cramping?

Answer 1

this will sound stupid, but trust me coming from someone who has this issues EVERYsingle month without fail.eat bananas! it really does help. and use a heat pack on your stomach, or take a warm bath.

there is also a pressure point just above your hip bones and slightly in on your stomach where if you press, it stops hurting for a couple of minutes.    And accupressure is also to sit on a chair, place one ankle on the other knee (kind of how men sit in chairs normally) place three fingers above your ankle and push around there with your thumb ...it might hurt a tiny bit. Push on it for about 20 seconds. Switch and do the same thing on the other ankle.

This doesnt work for everyone and may take a bit for you to figure out how it works on you specifically, but once you figure it out its worth it!

good luck :)
