Girl Talk on Yik Yak | Can y’all give me some tips on how to deal with period pain? Usually I’d take Midol or Advil, but due to being on chemo I can’t take any NSAIDs. I literally can’t function due to the pain and nausea that comes from the cramps. Many thanks!

Heating pad or hot baths can be helpful

if you haven’t tried sea bands for nausea, i’d highly recommend them. i have a roller with little nubs on it that i use to roll out my back when i have cramps, and that does sometimes help. other than that, you should ask your doctor about the best other pain management options considering the complexity of your situation. hope you feel better!

Heating pad (there’s electric options or things similar to hot hands that heat up chemically and stick to your lower stomach) and yoga/stretching
