I wonder because the best otc med for period cramps is Ibuprofen. But do take care to take it with food so it doesn't irritate your stomach. It shouldn't make you ill, but I've taken it on an empty stomach before and it does make it hurt.
Also,try a heating pad. And ...the food you ate. All of those veggies.
Probably gave you gas....and with a period bloating and gas kinda come along with that already. So eating those things have added to it. I'd definitely suggest some gas medicine!
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
