What is better?

Question

I always apply heat for my cramps when I'm on my period. However, a few people have told me that applying heat is a mistake and I should be applying cold instead... I don't think so but help! Comment what you think :)

Answer

Heat on tummy and cool wet washcloth on neck or forehead! Works everytime for me(:

Answer

I just used a heating pad for nice hour and my cramps are all gone i felt like dancing😂😊👌🏾

Answer

Use heat if that's what works for you.

Answer

Well, if we're going by science; heat helps improve blood flow and release tension, and cold reduces swelling, which is done by reducing blood flow. Your period pains are cause your period is tightening and cramping, and so applying heat will relax your uterus and reduce the pain :)
