Uh..I wish I could fall asleep during my period. When the pain is really bad, I can't even sleep, because it's so painful..like stabbing pain. I've been on prescription pills for my cycle since the age of 15.
Try a hot water bottle it helps me a lot!
Aniyah Jung Same. Well for wishing to sleep. I woke up at 4am with such awful cramps id be screaming if our neighbors weren't a wall away.
Aniyah Jung try the book!
Aniyah Jung me 2 it hurts badly
Aniyah Jung mines too my cycle is 5 days but i have take pills like everyday until its over 😔
On the last one I thought she was going to say to read a book lol
Turkish Muslimah
looooool
Sammmmme
My cramps are so bad that I need at least 1200 mg of ibuprofen to just lessen SOME pain. It only lasts the first of days, and I know some women have pain all throughout their periods, but for me two days is far more than enough. The ginger tea is helping a bit. You should see me: curled up, sweating from pain, moaning, holding a banana in one hand and tea in the other. It's funny. But I am in pain. I had to put the banana down to type this. THANKS FOR TIPS THAT MEDICINE CAN'T EVEN HELP WITH!
+May Athena Has been there. I hate the pain..and when I was even younger, the vomiting :(.
May Athena
lol..
May Athena you should speak to an obgyn about endometriosis. You sound like me and I have it. It took almost 15 years to diagnose.
millennialgirl I still vomit at 38
Bratbaby Vidrine I'm 38 and me too. Why do we vomit during period. Wonder what makes the vomiting happen. When younger people was shocked to see me on the floor, crying, balled up and barely able to talk.
Gaaaah, I could use a king-size hunk of ginger right now. I feel faint, nauseous, and my cramps are making me want to rip my internal organs out. Being a girl sucks hard right now.
And guys think they have it bad lolz
If you take 1 tsp of ginger powder three times a day for 2 day you can ease the the pain
ooooh ladies! Also look into tumeric! both as a spice and suppliment it really helps to lessen the severity of painful cramps! Take two or three capsules about 3 or 4 days before you start to menstruate, and you'll notice your cramps will be far less painful. Tumeric helps to lessen uterine muslce contractions; which we all know causes really painful cramps.However I will say be cautious not to take too much as tumeric is a blood thinner and may make you more lethargic than usual. Hope this helps*
Just remember that if you're experiencing severe monthly pain that this is not natural. Go to your GP and ask for a referral to be assessed for female reproductive disorders and diseases. I was recently diagnosed with Endometriosis after almost 2 decades of experiencing the worst pain imagineable and not one doctor ever mentioning to me about possibly having something like this. Don't ignore it, it is not normal to experience so much pain and don't stop until you have answers.
Elle Falconer How did you get your diagnosis? I went to my doctor, and she wasn't even concerned that there could be something wrong even though I experience crippling cramps for two and a half weeks. She just gave me birth control, and I'm refusing that because I want a diagnosis.
Star Shine I'm sorry I saw this late. I had ultrasounds done that showed a mass, I was referred to a gynecologist and I had a diagnostic Laparscopy. For you, I would ask your GP for a referral but research endometriosis specialists in your area and ask for a referral directly to that person.
Elle Falconer i have a ovarian cyst do that has a part of my extreme pains?
Unique Tiffy Yes, how big is the cyst do you know?
Elle Falconer
Thats right and endometriosis can be best cured by having a baby...it ll be cured.
I'm going to bookmark this and try the ginger tea and the bananas. Mine are severe to the point of immobilization.
the ginger tea works like a charm ❤
Same😞
samessss
Omg I literally started 5 minutes ago after missing nearly 2 months. I was in a panic because I get the WORSE cramps . This video saved me in a matter of seconds ♡ Thank you sooo much (that book is magic) 😂💖
Take chasteberry and evening primrose and magnesium and avoid dairy
I used to have severe cramping for 1 or 2 days in my stomach and back; in feet and hands a little cramping ; cold sweats; heavy bleeding; and vomiting. All of the strong medications doctors prescribed didn't work after a while. What helped was changing my lifestyle. I've been a vegetarian now for 10 years (stay away from caffeine) I only use natural products for pain, but I had to detox from medication for a year before my body would respond efficiently to natural remedies. I only use natural LAVENDER leaf tea (relaxes muscles and helps with nausea) and GINGER (helps with nausea). Also, BANANA is excellent because I've usually lost my appetite and it gives me energy and helps with symptoms. Now, I get either no symptoms or moderate symptoms based on stress, fatigue or my eating habits.
Andrea Wally I’m currently in that detox! I haven’t taken medicine for 6 months and I’m noticing that now the natural remedies are working way better now!
I'm on mine right now and I can't explain the pain I get. It's constant terrible pain. I pass out, throw up, I can't eat, I sweat, get lightheaded. It's just the worst. I'm also always crying. Pills don't even help me with my pain anymore.
That's so a 100% me! I think you may have menstrual migraines, too!! (You can google it) If you get sweaty and feel nauseas, try to lay STILL and flat on your stomach and focus on your breathing and take a few deep breaths, the pain will subside after a while :3 if all else fails, follow her tips 😍
I just got back from the hospital because of my cramps. I know how you feel, but your cramps seem a bit worse than mine. :/
My cramps are nowhere near as bad as they were when I was 12-14. Around 15 my cramps got way better & now a year later they're still just moderate, with occasional first day cramps that are irritating but I'm so thankful that my cramps are nowhere near as bad as they were the first two years.
Ripping out my uterus nowwwwwwwww
thank you so much for this! i get horrible period symptoms. it's almost guaranteed that i'll miss a day of school every month because of it
I eliminate Beef from my diet 3 days before the date my period usually comes, and refrain til the 3rd day of my cycle. I have little to no cramps & a lighter flow when I do that.
Red wine has also relieved cramps for me in the past.
My period cramps hurt so so bad that I get light headed, cold sweats, seeing stars and even sometimes fainting. I must have lacked in something or maybe its my diet and habits. Help? Tips? :))
Where were these when I was a young girl and needed it. I love the book and the sock one. I agree that when you're sleeping you don't notice the pain, that's if you can sleep. I didn't know about the exercise, but I remember crying into, screaming,and biting my pillow, then I'd take off running down the stairs down the street then back inside and up the stairs to my room. I lived in Canada back then. I would even go to church with everyone, then as soon as it's time to sit, I'd run to the bus stop and take the bus back home and cry into my pillow.lol
I was very much Cray Cray back then. Well, as soon as I started having children, no more cramps unless I lift anything heavy up to 2 days before. A woman's world is rough. I'm going to pass on that sock and book idea to my granddaughters when their time comes. God bless.
exercises really do help and so does laying on your stomach. I have no idea why but I go through 11 of the 15 period symptoms google mentions and according to google, the average woman only goes through 1 symptom. Idk why I'm so special. It is beyond frustrating.
Michelle Collins Lol I guess I'm with you about being special with menstruation
Michelle Collins
I also had a few symptoms and friends with the same thing. I think Google is not getting all the facts or maybe the women who provided the info didn't want to talk about more than one symptom, or only spoke about the one that bothered them the most. Go figure!
+DeLinda Williams Lol, idk where my comment went. It showed up twice so I deleted 1 and then they both disappeared. I agree with you on everything and I'm glad for these natural remedies because I dislike taking pain meds. sometimes it takes 4 a day to get rid of my pain.
I have a math exam two days from now and I cANT DO ANYTHING BUT CRY WHAT DID I DO TO DESERVE THIS.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I nearly cried while watching this--that's how grateful I am. I've had horrible cramps for years, so this is going to be so helpful.
You're a freakin genius for this video! I already knew majority of the tips, but the fact you shared and posted these are golden!!!
Banana increases my cramps with more pain even plantain. I try to avoid it during my periods. Sugary drinks also makes my period heavy and painful. But honey works wonders, I can hardly notice the pain if I take honey consistently. Thanks for sharing. I will try the ginger tea.
Me too!
Same
Girl I can't, my menstrual cycle is very very painful but Imma need my pain pills real quick and some tea.....I have it So bad I throw up and have to miss work
girl i know the feeling i used to have it that bad i had to be out of school and work and throw for like a whole 24 hour time until i would go to the hospital and get a shot but after being on birth control for a while it still hurts but no throwing up, just hurt like hell lol
YES! Still hurts like hell to this day too, but I can "manage" it a bit better I guess. I still sometimes miss work because of the pain....sucks!
TKr9491 try eliminating sugar and dairy a few days or week before your cycle comes on. sometimes its what you eat.
thanks i try that sometime but sometimes i crave cereal how weird
greenish thumb crave sweets, like cookies, chocolate chip cookies, etc, but I'll give it a shot, Thank you
Also, taking your vitamins ! I started taking my multivitamin, fish oil, probiotic and hairfinity pills and I literally had no symptoms of menstruation. Now, once I stopped, I got the WORST pain I ever had so my advice is to stick with it lol.
the book idea has been saving me for months now.
thank you!! I went hunting for this video hehe I had to find one to help me out and fast hehe! So I found the biggest hardback book I had (Dictionary Hehe) and my mom's heated blanket both work wonders together! I popped the blanket over the dictionary and was a match made in heaven! Thank you!!!!
I made my best friend try all of these with me (except the bath thing that's just weird) it's funny because they don't get periods. Because he's a boy 😂 but the tea and the book worked super well for me. Thanks!
The book trick sounds so good, and I am so excited to try it bc so far I've found nothing new to help me and old tricks aren't doing the best for me. Thank you!!!
One other hack is to search on youtube Menstrual Cramp Relief Pain Relief Isochronic Binaural Beat (ASMR)
It helped me in school so much. I didn't have access to any of these hacks so I looked it up and found the video.
My cramps are bad in fact I hate them I hate when that time of the month comes. I remember when I was in class and I almost threw up because of cramps 😬 thb I am OK with the whole period thing and all, but I just wish that cramps didn't exist. We all hate them😈
Lol at the mood swings "I will kill you" xD Thank you SO much Whitney for this video!!!!! :DDD
this is the first time I'm anticipating that time of the month. cant wait to try these out!
I love every single one of this girl's channels! OMG
I'm so blessed to not have a painful menstrual cycle...nice tips though!
I hate youuuuu. Your so lucky. 😭 you are blessed. Lol
You are so lucky. When I get my period the pain is so bad I throw up and need pills every three hours.
Leave.
I'm going to try this, my cramps hurt so bad that sometimes it make me throw up and feel faint. Ugh! I hate it!
She truly is. That's part of the reason those dearnaptural vlogs have gotten me hooked. lol
I come from a REALLY dysfunctional family, but seeing this beautiful family of color gives me hope and inspiration! ^_^
I love how you emote mood swings!
ugh! dying right now! trying some of these! thanks or the tips!!
I feel you girl :( just got mine now... 1st day is always a drag!
i'm a kid so cramps are a lot on me lol i'm bawling my eyes out :/
im 20, and when i was young I didn't have any pain, and now for some reason I am getting a lot of cramps :(
imerachel thats how it is for me. And we are the same age. My friends use to all complain about cramps and I was fine. But now, for the last year, ive had severe cramps. And idky
I will thtow up if i try the book one.
I had made the rice sock yesterday and I must say it's a HUGE life saver! The heat definitely melted away my cramps Andi feel noting but warm relief. No more ibuprophen for me! I tried the book trick at night and it too worked wonders! I'll be sure to try the other tips next month
Kismet!!! I needed to watch this video tonight in order to process for my day tomorrow and fight the cramps and bloating. Thank you sooooo much!!!
My cramps be so bad that sometimes I almost pass out. I start to sweat, get hot, and get bloated. The only thing that works for me in my busy lifestyle is ibuprofen extra strength. If I have time, I usually take melatonin and it helped me get some sleep through out the pain.
+kikiprettylife18 I puke on my period ugh I feel your pain girl :( You can drink rosemary tea It worked for me it's a lifesaver! It's also a substitute for medication and resting ALL day helps to :)
I think I'll try that. Thanks!
kikiprettylife18 yup :) If you have your own rosemary you grew your self make sure the flavor is not to strong unless you buy the tea bag kind. I hope it helps and heat pads are also recommended
I might try that too, heat pad really works well especially if I'm just in bed 24/7.
That's so a 100% me! I think you may have menstrual migraines, too!! (You can google it) If you get sweaty and feel nauseas, try to lay STILL and flat on your stomach and focus on your breathing and take a few deep breaths, the pain will subside after a while :3 if all else fails, follow her tips 😍
Layin on your front on a thick hardcover book???? Are you frekkin SERIOUS. You don't want any pressure on that area AT ALL when the pain is so bad.....
Lol!! It sounds crazy as heck. But it honestly works. Once you can get yourself into that position. Trust me. I have the worst cramps ever. Stops me in my tracks sometimes. I vomit. I have hot flashes and sweat. Feels like some one is stabbing my insides and pushing down. It's THE worst. But the book thing really works. Now, it only works while you are doing it. But if you do it and can just go to sleep like that...bingo.
+MzGraceful omg same here. ill try it next time.
I just tried it with my high school yearbook. Works like a charm 👌. Only it doesn't help too much with the back pain, but there's pain killers for that.
Right!!
StylebyNap85?! Wait,you have another channel apart from Nap85 and DearNap5?! Wow,that means more great videos fro you! That's awesome!
Guys I hardly ever comment, but I feel the need to right now. Excercise really helps. A few minutes ago I was in so much pain that I could not walk ,but I plucked up the strength to just stand up and then I did like a million laps of my room, now my cramps have gone. just thought I'd let u know. :)
You know my sister was drinking hot water everyday when she wakes up for a month and she was paining too much crying ,after a month of doing that she had it and in her 3 rd day i came to know she 's having period
No 1% pain
Please girls try that
justlaugh83 i used to love drinking hot water i stopped when i get bite by a wasp
why would U want to sit in period blood in the tub
+victory rhodes lol
Well take a shower first if it helps
my blood stops when I'm in water
dajai foy use a menstrual cup
True they would be gross
I ACTUALLY LOVE YOU FOREVER FOR THIS VIDEO! omg bless your heart
Number 7 sounds crazy... so crazy it just might work. Thanks for the tips!
im showing this to my girlfriend ASAP!!! hahaha
Whit, you are seriously the best youtuber out on here. Your videos are always concise, well shot and easy to understand. And all of your creative ideas which are ACTUALLY useful. Because I honestly don't need another video telling me how to put on red lipstick. Love all of your content and thanks for devoting the time to keep your videos at a high standard. :)
My girl will love this, i hate seeing her go through so much pain 🙏🏾🙏🏾 thank you
Girl! YOU are the bizness!
Great video! And OMG I used to do something akin to the last one when I was in high school by laying on the floor and having someone lightly press their feet on my stomach until there was pressure enough to dull the pain. I thought it was so weird to do but it helped! It's so cool that you do something like it!
Love this new channel Whit! Great video!!!
Uneven if ur videos don't apply to me I ALWAYS WATCH THEM! U are by far my favorite youtuber ever ever ever. Love u
This is so amazing. Could not have asked for better timing Whit.
Thanks a million!!
That book thing is new, definitely trying it out! Girl THANK YOU!!!!
I am only catching up now, only discovered you this year, and totally mad about you. I love all your vids. Great quality Whitney
The rice in the sock has really saved my life! I've probably watched this video more than several times, I constantly watch it when I'm on my period. I just sit on the toilet and try to poo out my pain which works sometimes. Great vid!!
Whitney I love your acting in the beginning, super cute video once again!
OMG! The timing on this video is PERFECT!! I recently visited my doc for painful backaches and cramps during my period. He gave me a prescription for birth control pills; which I NEVER picked up. I always knew there are natural ways to soothe the pains- and HERE YOU ARE!! I was browsing the internet and came across the benefits of fish oil. Consuming it helps to lower prostaglandins which acts on the uterus and causes cramping. Thank you so much!!! I'll be adding these tips to the fish oil ;-)
Drinking my ginger tea as I'm watching! Thank you!
Never tried a book or ginger before. So far the book is amazing. Thank you!
Love this video, the book really works. Going to try the sock thing soon too. You're a life saver for real.
The book trick is so cool!
Thx for the video and seriously ladies big respect and what can i say hold on and remember u r doing it for future generations!
