Heating pads
These are my fav heating pads, they all do the job but these are the best
Same thing as the shrimp, but this one feels like a squishmallow!
Squishmallows Cam The Cat Heating Pad Plush
This is my favorite heating pad bc it can go on both my back and my stomach at the same time

These are a godsend. If a heat pack is too expensive, then these are great. They get really hot

This thing has made my period weeks so much less painful. You can put this in the microwave to warm it up, plus it smells like lavender!

Vitamins/ medications
These are all very helpful for me

These are my preferred period products. They stay put, they're comfortable and you can leave them in way longer than a tampon

I dont like using tampons because of the chemicals that can be in them but if tampons are what you like, i would recommend the organic ones
