Period Vent! Lol

bo

So for the whole 7 months I've been having Horrible HORRIBLE PMS! TO THE POINT I FELT LIKE PASSING OUT! I KNOW i had been feeling like that because of alot of stress and family problems going on. I would drink chamomile tea , pop tylenol extra strength pills , put a really warm towel on my abdomen. But i was already at the point where nothing was working for me! I got on bc pills almost 2 months ago. My doctor had said i would see results with my period the 1st month (WRONG) IT WAS THE WORST PAIN I'VE FELT! I was about to give up on the pills but my family and bf pushed me to keep taking the pills, so i listened. 1 week before my expected period i kinda knew i wasn't going to cramp horrible because a week before my period, i start cramping and spotting. This month i only had some spotting! I pretty much prepared myself. 1 week before i started eating more veggies. I started using peppermint and lavender oil together and rubbed it all around my pelvic area. I also stopped drinking coffee since yesterday (i only take a week off to drink coffee lol ) . I have been taking tylenol if i feel any discomfort on my stomach area but i have not taken much pills as the months before . So im hoping that all these remedies put together can help me battle PMS !

BTW: I FEEL LIKE THE ESSENTIAL OILS IS WHAT'S HELPING ME MORE!
