To think that having a drug free natural period does not mean you are a better/ stronger person or have more guts

[hunkermunker]

Are you smug about not having period pain? I would hope not. Glad you don't when it can affect other people so horrendously. There's a difference.

Therefore the other thread is lunacy.

As you were.

(And yes, I know this is a thread about a thread. But I'd have been ignored on the other one - as I was - because they all want to fight about who's had the tornest fanjo or somesuch load of old cobblers)

Is it really my mooncup that is helping? I felt absolutely crap last week, just as period was starting (sorry if tmi). Took 2 paracetamol (in a kind or resigned this will be no good way) and went to a meeting at the school with my insides squeezing and cramping and generally feeling woozy. All was ok after an hour. So either those paracetamol were overloaded with active ingredient or the mooncup theory is right. (each month I think that it may well be the mooncup tbh)

The mooncup effect got stronger over a period (ha) of about six months. The first month, I didn't notice much difference and it improved steadily.

Sorry for all you others having a horrendous time

better living through chemistry, i say.

there's no medal for going drug free.

bring on the dope, i say.

hunker you have made me . At the risk of sounding tmi-ish (as most of these period/mooncup threads turn out anyway tbh) my periods came back around 6 months ago when dd was 8 months and I had cut down on the b/f a bit, and I assumed they would get better, not worse.

mnet is certainly very educational (well some of it anyway)

Actually I meant I assumed they would get worse (i.e. back to "normal" as time went on)
