Cramps and Caffeine

Okay so all my research says that caffeine makes your periods worse, when I was in high school I may have developed a bit of a caffeine dependency cause I used to drink 3-4 jumbo monster energy’s a day( the jumbo ones with the screw on cap are the equivalent of 3 normal sized ones. So that’s like 12-16 a day😳this my first time thinking of it that way tbh now I see that was kinda wild lol) but anyway I swear it makes my cramps disappear. Does anyone else feel like caffeine helps there cramps or am I just tricking my brain because I needs that sweet sweet caffiene?🤔
