My periods are fucking awful anyway. I'm due on, and cramps are starting before it's even here today and feeling miserable - didn't eat for ages as didn't actually feel hungry.
But then once I did suddenly get hungry and eat wow, my whole abdomen feels so much better. It sort of feels like putting something in my stomach reduces the amount of room the muscles have to seize and contort? Is this stupid?
Has anyone else noticed eating helps period pain?
