My daughter suffers with terrible period cramps. Shes 13, she has for years (started at 8)😔
Is the myoovi period tens machine any good for her age? I've looked on the website, but can't see an age

The GP can prescribe Mefenamic acid for period pain, stronger than ibuprofen and can reduce the blood loss from the period too, so good is anaemic.

I don't think so, and they are bigger than a normal ibuprofen tablet. I used to have to take the ibuprofen meltlets because I had the same problem. Your poor daughter, how miserable for her. If she needs something she can wear, do the sticky self-heating patches help? Very discrete under a school uniform.
