Do you have any advice for period cramps (and mood swings while were at it)? I’m using heat and painkillers but still feel like Satan’s baby is trying to crawl out of me

I don’t get those, so my advice is one part what I recall, one part witchdoctory, and one part nonsense.

I recommend a hot water bottle or heating pad, a bath, a painkiller, and something that aids in that sort of muscle contraction—like turmeric.

Eat a curry.

Raspberry leaf tea is also great-there’s some sort of compound in them that helps

Yes, it’s similar to turmeric and penny royal and all the other muscle contraction compounds.
