Everyone who has periods experiences them differently and has their own ways of managing them. Periods have long been a taboo topic, but there have been increased efforts to reduce the stigma around them. As part of this, there has been more discussion about the wide variety of ways to relieve the symptoms that often accompany periods. Many people find that heat packs like this are an effective way to reduce the pain of period cramps and to make their periods more comfortable.
