Anyone else get this? I’ve had it for a while and tbh the lower leg pains are worst than the tummy cramps!

Try magnesium

Magnesium is a brilliant muscle relaxant, which helps to ease cramps. Whether they are leg cramps, neck cramps or period cramps, magnesium is helpful for reducing spasm in any muscles, including your uterine muscles. Magnesium regulates muscle function and can help ease muscle pain as well as spasm.
