Arcane character x GN! Reader on Period.
synopsis: Just some period comfort hcs with Viktor, Jayce, Vi, Ekko, Mel and Jinx!
Warning: Cursing. 18+ FOR JINX, no smut but somewhat spicy. Rest of the characters are fluff.
Please enjoy! So sorry it took me so long!
Viktor
He’s very educated on menstrual cycles to begin with! (Biology nerd)
Definitely has a calendar and keeps track of all your cycles.
The day before you’re supposed to get your period he comes home from shopping and restocks on food and pads, tampons, ibuprofen etc.
Would definitely give you a massage to help with cramps.
“Beloved?” Viktor knocked from behind the door before proceeding to enter your shared room. "I got what you needed," he said, setting down the grocery bag containing both the tampons and pads. “And these," he added, revealing a variety of your favorite chocolates, salty chips, and even a bottle of your preferred tea.
You blinked at him, your expression shifting from surprise to gratitude. "You didn't have to-"
“Tsk, tsk, tsk” He quickly shushed you. His free hand reaching to brush a strand of hair from your face. "I wanted to. Now, do me a favor and relax." Before you could protest or question any further, he knelt down by your side, his clever hands carefully lifting the edge of the blanket. "Turn over, Darling” he coaxed, and when you complied, he placed his hands on your lower back, his touch warm and deliberate.
"I read this helps," Viktor murmured as his fingers began to work small, soothing circles into your tense muscles. You feel your muscles loosen and quickly melt into Viktor’s touch.
His hands run a little on the colder side, yet they still work their magic and alleviate the pain in your abdomen.
"You're too good to me," you murmured, your voice muffled as you rested your head against your arm.
"Nonsense," Viktor replied, his voice low and unwavering. "You endure so much… this is the least I can do." He says leaving a small gentle kiss on your cheek.
Jayce
He’s the biggest softy for you on your period oh boy oh boy oh boy. He is completely at your beck and call.
He’s also super carful about your emotional during this time. He tries his hardest to leave work on time and come home!
He understands mood swings can happen and he’s very patient! He accidentally messed up and ticked you off? He’ll nod along as you lecture him and act like a kicked puppy. Then afterwards will ask if you’re okay and if you need space. Will 100% make up and apologize by getting you a sweet treat :3
Jayce finally made his way back home, shoulders heavy and tense. his tie askew and his hair slightly mussed, looking like he'd run the entire way home. You stand up from your place on the couch and place a soft kiss on his lips. “Welcome home” you smile at home before your eyes lower to see an empty handed Jayce. "You forgot?" you said quietly, your voice heavy with disappointment.
Jayce froze, guilt washing over his face. "Forgot what?"
"The heating pad," you replied, your arms crossed tightly over your chest. "You said you'd grab it on your way home. I've been in pain all day, Jayce."
His heart sank. "Oh no," he whispered moving to run a hand down his hair. "I'm so sorry, sweetheart. I don't know how I missed it…”. He thinks for a moment before he says, “That’s on me, and I'll fix it right now!" He turned to leave, planning to head straight back to the lab.
"No... that's alright Jayce, just please remember next time." You grab hold of his sleeve. He let out a soft sigh and turned around to face you.
"I'm so sorry about that sweetheart... Honestly I was just excited to get back home to you is all." He mumbled into your hair as he pulled you into a hug.
"No no it's fine really, it's not too big of a deal" The warmth of his body slowly encapsulating itself protectively over you.
“No you should be upset it’s okay! I’ll be more responsible next time.” His puppy eyes glowing as if he almost wanted you to be mad at him. It was incredibly difficult to deny Jayce whenever he would behave like this…
“I uh…. O-okay?…. Please do better next time.” Your eyes are looking at anything else but at him.
"... you need to be mad at me until I figure out how to make it up to you." His strong arm coming up from behind to softly pat your side. "How does that sound?"
You laugh off the pervious nerves “I think that sounds perfect" You tilt your head up to face him and press a warm soft kiss to his cheek.
Vi
Okay I feel like for Vi for some reason you two would always be synced
She’s all tough and prepared on day one until day two hits and… that’s a different story
You always end up completely staying home together on the second day of your periods
You groaned as another cramp hit, curling further into yourself under the layers of warmth. Next to you, Vi let out a sharp exhale through her nose, gripping the heat pack on her stomach.
"This is some sick joke," Vi muttered, her voice heavy with irritation. She shifts on the bed, but the movement only made her wince. "I could take a punch to the gut, no problem, but this? This is worse than any fight I've been in."
You scoot closer towards Vi drapes an arm over you, pulling you snug against her chest. Her hand found your hair, fingers threading through it lazily.
"We're a mess," you mumbled into her tank top.
"Yeah," she admitted, pressing her cheek against the top of your head. "But at least we're a mess together."
Vi is totally one to do a complete 180 on the next day.
While you’re still dying of pain she manages to get out of bed early and heads to the store to pick up some stuff
Vi's heavy boots thudded softly against the floor, the sound bringing a flicker of relief. "Alright, babe," her familiar rasp broke the silence, “I got a couple of things for you”
“Don’t you mean us?” You sit up straight and tilt your head a little confused.
“Oh no, I’m doing fine sweetheart don’t you worry. But… I know you probably still feel like a sack of shit so I picked up some goodies for you.” she pulled out an assortment of snacks like chips, gummy candy, soda, juice..(if it had sugar she’s go it!…)
“If these cramps won’t kill me… the amount of sugar here will…” Your eyebrows furrowed at the mess of snacks in front of you.
“Oh pip down will you? Haven’t even gotten to the best part.” What she pulled out next made your breath hitch. It was a small, ridiculously cute plushie. A chubby fox with big shiny eyes and a fluffy tail. Vi plopped it onto your lap as she smirked from your reaction. “Cute huh?” She sits down next to you. “I picked it out cuz it reminded me of you”
Your face flushed instantly, a mix of embarrassment and warmth flooding through you. You picked up the fox, turning it over in your hands. Its fluffy tail was so soft it almost felt unreal, and the wide, shiny eyes seemed to sparkle in the dim light of the room. "Reminded you of me?" you asked, glancing at Vi with a raised brow.
“Yeah well… it’s cute and small.. so it reminds me of you.” She leaned back against the headboard, “And it’s a little spunky. Just like you.”
You roll your eyes and softly punch her shoulder. "It does cheer me up," you admitted softly, clutching the plush fox closer. "Thank you, Vi."
She wraps an arm around you shoulder and pulls you in “No problem Cupcake, anything for you.”
Ekko
HES PANICKING
but in the outside he’s cool as a cucumber
The inside? oh god. He’s stressing out about making sure all your needs are met.
You are not allowed to go on missions during this time at all. He doesn’t exactly forbid it per say but he does shoot a glare whenever you flinch due to the pain of your cramps. He’s always behind you making sure you’re okay
He’s like a little momma bird
You were currently getting ready for a mission, bag laying across the table as you carefully prepare stuffing it full of food, medical supplies, bombs and your trusty lock pick. Ekko leaned against the wall, arms crossed, watching you with that ever so perceptive gaze of his.
"You good?" he asked, cocking an eyebrow.
"Yeah, fine," you replied, wincing as another cramp twisted in your stomach. You shake your head cursing at your own reaction.
He was by your side in seconds, gently taking the pack from your hands. "You're lying."
“Ekko please…” you straightened your back. "I'm fine," you insisted, reaching for the pack again, but Ekko held it out of reach.
reach.
"You think I don't notice you wincing every five seconds?" His voice softened, though his eyes stayed firm. "You can't go out like this.”
“I’m not some baby. Believe me I’ll be just fine.”you protested, though even you could hear how unconvincing you
“Look… you sound way too unconvincing and because you’re way too stubborn…” He paused looking at you and finally smiling. “How about I skip out on this mission too? And you know.. take care of my girl?.” A proud and playful smile adorns his lips while he waits for your response.
You’re a little surprised, not because he doesn’t put you first but because he’s allowing himself to relax in a way as well. “Are you sure about that?" you ask, your voice softer than you intended. "I mean... this mission sounds important. I don't want you to–“
"Stop." He cuts you off gently, stepping closer. The distance between you shrinks, and you feel his hand come to rest on your shoulder, steady and warm. "I've been out there long enough to know the world ain't gonna fall apart if I sit one out." He takes a deep breath and continues, "I know I push myself too hard sometimes. And yeah, protecting our people is important and all, but so is being here. With you. What's the point of fighting if I can't take a moment to enjoy what I'm fighting for?"
“Ekko…” His words hit you harder than you expected, the vulnerability in them catching you off guard.
"Yeah firefly?…” He tilts his head, watching you carefully. His hands fidgeting together like a nervous child.
You let out a small sigh, your resolve crumbling. "Just... don't make a habit of this, okay? The Firelights need you."
"They'll manage," he says with a wink. "I'll make it up to 'em. Promise." He finally makes his way over to you placing a small kiss on your neck before continuing. “But let me make it up to you first okay?”
Jinx
18+
Okay jinx is an absolute horndog when you’re on your period
You got cramps? Uhhhh…. Solution????… her mouth and fingers.
“Love bug come onnnnnn! You know making you cum will help with cramps! What’s the big deal?” She sighed dramatically flopping over the table in front of her.
“Love bug?…” You questioned. “And the deal is I’m on my period!…. I don’t want to make a big mess for you to deal with okay.” You huffed out embarrassed at her playful yet lewd antics.
“Yeah! Love bug cuz you love me and you’re always buzzing around me! Like a bug!” Jinx proudly exclaimed her bright idea of a nickname, perhaps a bit too proudly… “And besides! Me?… care about a mess? You’re kidding right?” she looks almost offended but the fact you assumed she wouldn't do this for you.
“Jinx… I just feel gross okay… I don’t really feel super desirable right now.” You sighed placing your face into your hands.
She bangs her fists on the table and jumps up from her seat. “You’re fucking joking right? You’re smoking babe. SMOKING. Like SMOKING HOT! Her arms waved around as she talked to draw out more emphasis to her claim. She lets out a playful scoff “It’s taking every fiber of my being to not pounce on you right now!”
“Jinx… knock it off…” you bit your lip embarrassed and turned away. “I know that isn’t true at all… quit being too nice.”
“Doll…. You’re way too into your own head! I’m saying I wanna bang and you think I’m lyin?” She puts her hands on her hips and shakes her head. “No no no we can’t be having that! Doll come here.”
Your expression as you looked at her told Jinx you in fact did not know who to believe. You’re corrupt emotions or your loving girlfriend? Either way you walked to her and stopped till you were in front of her. She quickly cupped your face and pulled you into a deep inviting kiss. Her hands roam softly along your body, gently holding and squeezing every part she loved.
She breaks away from the kiss and looks at you, her voice more serious than you’d like it to be. “Y/N you’re always going to be perfect to me, there’s no way in hell l’d ever be grossed out by you.” She leans in closer and softly leaves kisses along your collar “Besides I wanna love you. I wanna make you feel so crazy good you won’t even remember all your dumb troubles.”
Mel
MEL MEL MEL MEL MEL 😻 fancy rich lady who spoils you
While I do think she’ll still be super busy with work, she’ll most definitely make sure your body is been taken care of.
She lets the chef know your nutritional needs, taking notes you need more iron in your diet.
And when she does come home it’s all kisses, cuddles and praise getting sent your way!
Since she could remember, Mel could take care of just about anything. It didn’t matter if it was a delicate political negotiation or ensuring you felt cared for on your worst days, she had an effortless way of making you feel like the center of her world
The moment she left for the council meeting that morning, you heard her speaking quietly with the private chef, listing off ingredients and dietary adjustments with her usual precision. "She needs more iron," you overheard her say, her voice warm yet firm. "Spinach, lentils, maybe some lean meat. And add something sweet but not too high in sugar content. She deserves to enjoy herself, but make sure it stay healthy for my sake.
Hours later, as you lay curled up on the couch, a warm blanket draped over you, the scent of something savory wafted through the air. The chef had outdone himself, delivering a meal tailored exactly to what your body needed, paired with a small plate of indulgent chocolate covered fruits. It brought a soft smile to your lips. Mel always thought of everything, she always thought of you.
the front door finally opened, the sound of her heels clicking on the marble floor announced her arrival. You craned your neck to look at her, and the moment her golden eyes landed on you, her expression softened.
"There's my love," she murmured, setting her things aside and making a beeline for you.
"Hello darling, long day?" you asked, your voice soft.
"Not anymore," she replied, leaning down to press a kiss to your forehead before settling beside you on the couch. Her hand came up to cup your cheek, her thumb brushing against your skin. "How are you feeling? Did you eat?"
You nodded. "The food was perfect. Thank you for taking care of it."
“Oh? So you heard me did you?”She hummed in satisfaction, pulling you gently into her. Her arms wrapped around you snugly, her fingers trailing softly along your back in soothing patterns. "You've been so strong," she whispered. "But you don't have to be right now. Let me take care of you”
You melted into her embrace, feeling the tension in your body ease as she held you. "You deserve the world," she murmured, her voice full of affection. "And I intend to give it to you, one kiss or gentle word at a time. You will be shown my love”
ERM SO A LINE FROM JAYCE’S PART IS FROM XAVIER’S NEW CARD FROM LOVE AND DEEPSPACE! I recently pulled it and oh my god…. It’s been stuck in my mind…. ANYWAYS HOPE YOU ENJOYED

Backstage Comfort
Noah Sebastian x reader
Summary: Noah takes care of reader while being on her period. Matt and Folio wouldn’t be Matt and Folio when they wouldn’t tease Noah.
Words: 798
Warnings: Period and Cramps, Teasing
A/N: This was requested but I somehow deleted the request. I wrote another version of this with just reader and Noah. Click here.
The backstage area of the venue buzzed with pre-show energy. The hum of amplifiers being tested, the shuffle of crew members setting up, and the distant roar of an excited crowd all blended into a chaotic symphony. Normally, you thrived in this environment, feeding off the adrenaline of watching Noah and the rest of Bad Omens prepare for another killer performance. But today, you weren’t feeling quite as enthusiastic.
You sat curled up on a couch in the corner of the green room, clutching a small pillow to your stomach. The ache in your abdomen hadn’t eased all day, and no amount of ibuprofen or deep breathing seemed to help.
Noah walked in from the hallway, dressed in his signature all-black outfit. His dark eyes scanned the room, immediately landing on you. “Hey,” he said, his voice soft but tinged with concern as he crossed the room in a few long strides. “You okay?”
You managed a weak smile. “Just cramps. I’ll be fine.”
Noah frowned, crouching in front of you so he could meet your eyes. “You don’t look fine.”
“It’s just one of those days,” you admitted. “Don’t worry about me. You have a show to get ready for.”
“Yeah, well, you’re more important than the show,” he said simply, his brow furrowed. “What do you need? Food? Tea? Heating pad?”
Your heart melted a little at how quickly he shifted into caretaker mode. “I don’t think they have a heating pad in the green room,” you said with a small laugh.
“Then I’ll improvise.” He stood up, glancing around the room.
At that moment, Matt walked in, clipboard in hand and his headset slightly askew. “What’s going on in here?” he asked, his tone a mix of curiosity and teasing. “Why’s Noah looking like a guy on a mission?”
“She’s got cramps,” Noah said without missing a beat, turning to Matt. “Do we have anything warm she can use? Like a towel or something?”
Matt’s mouth quirked into a smirk. “Look at you, Dr. Caregiver. You thinking of adding ‘period expert’ to your résumé?”
Noah shot him a flat look. “Are you going to help, or are you just here to make jokes?”
“Both,” Matt replied, his grin widening. “But mostly jokes.” He turned to you, leaning casually against the doorframe. “You sure you’re okay? He’s not being too overbearing, is he?”
You smiled despite the ache in your stomach. “No, he’s perfect.”
“Perfectly whipped,” Matt muttered under his breath, earning a sharp look from Noah.
Folio wandered in next, a drumstick twirling lazily between his fingers. “What’s going on? Why’s Noah looking like someone kicked his puppy?”
“He’s trying to MacGyver a heating pad,” Matt explained, clearly enjoying himself.
Folio raised an eyebrow. “So, full boyfriend mode, huh? Let me guess—he’s already planning a tea ceremony and a hot towel spa experience for you.”
You chuckled at their antics while Noah groaned. “You two are so helpful,” he said dryly, heading out of the room.
“Always,” Matt called after him, winking at you.
When Noah returned a few minutes later, he was carrying a warm towel and a bottle of water. He placed the towel gently over your stomach, adjusting it with care. “Better?” he asked, sitting beside you.
“Much better,” you said softly, leaning into him.
“Need anything else? Tea? Snacks? Ice cream?”
“You’ve already done enough,” you replied, touched by his efforts.
“Too bad. I’m not stopping.”
Matt, who had taken up residence on the couch across from you, grinned. “You’re really setting the bar here, man. How’re the rest of us supposed to compete with this level of dedication?”
“You’re not,” Noah replied without missing a beat.
Folio snorted. “Okay, but if she starts expecting this every time, we’re blaming you for creating unrealistic standards.”
Noah smirked. “Good. You should all take notes.”
Despite their teasing, Matt and Folio made themselves useful, making sure the crew left you alone and bringing over a blanket they found in the equipment closet. Between Noah’s warmth and their lighthearted banter, the ache in your stomach seemed just a little easier to bear.
When it was finally time for the show, you felt well enough to join the crew at the side of the stage. Matt gave you an exaggerated thumbs-up as you took your spot, while Folio leaned over and muttered, “Let us know if Nurse Noah slacks off.”
Noah rolled his eyes, but his arm slipped protectively around your waist as he glanced down. “You good?” he asked quietly.
“Perfect,” you said, smiling up at him.
And as the lights dimmed and the first chords rang out, you couldn’t help but feel grateful—not just for Noah, but for the ridiculous, wonderful team around you who made even the worst days bearable.
Taglist: @courta13

paige comforting her gf on period or sick or something would love this
─ warnings | mentions of cramps and periods (UGH EWWWWWWWWW NOOO), paigey being a cutie per usual, whats new? nothing else!
you heard a soft knock coming from the door, feeling your stomach twinge in pain and irritation. but the irritation dissipated when you heard paige's muffled voice through the door.
"baby, can i come in?"
you replied with a grunt and paige took that as a yes and came in with two grocery bags. you sat up with an intrigued expression as your girlfriend sat down on your bed, throwing the bags on the floor.
her expression was empathetic as she reached out to gently touch your hand, her eyes searching yours for any sign of discomfort or irritation. "Hey," she said softly, her voice soothing. "I brought you some stuff to make you feel better."
you couldn't help but crack a small smile at her thoughtfulness, despite the lingering ache in your stomach. "what did you get?"
paige reached into one of the bags and pulled out a box of herbal tea and some crackers. "i thought this might help settle your stomach since you swore off ibuprofen," she explained with a teasing smile, setting them on the bedside table within your reach.
"i shouldn't have done that," you laughed before grumbling in pain. "god, i hate being on my period. it sucks."
paige's smile widened at your remark, a empathetic glint in her eyes as she reached out to gently rub your back. "i know, baby," she said, her tone understanding. "but hey, at least we can make it a little more bearable together, right?"
you leaned into her touch, feeling a surge of comfort from her words. "yeah you're right. thanks, p." you murmured, feeling grateful for her presence.
"okay how about..." she began to massage your back as you leaned into her touch more, closing your eyes. "you take a shower and i go get some take-out? taco-bell sound good?"
"is that your way of telling me i stink?" you teased as paige pulled you into her chest, a laugh escaping your lips as she nuzzled against your hair.
"nah, of course not," she said with mock offense, her voice tinged with amusement. "but a nice warm shower might help relax your muscles and ease some of that tension."
you grinned up at her, feeling a surge of affection for her. "taco-bell sounds perfect," you agreed, feeling a little more energized at the thought of indulging in some fast food.
paige leaned in to press a kiss to your temple before gently pulling away. "i'll go grab it while you take a shower, okay?" she said, her voice warm and reassuring. "i'll be back before you're done."
"is that a promise?" you pouted as she rolled her eyes, her heart swelling with affection for you and your damned clinginess (especially on your period).
paige chuckled softly, her eyes filled with affection as she looked at you. "yeah, yeah, it's a promise." she said, leaning in to press another quick kiss to your lips before pulling away with a grin. "i'll be back before you even have time to miss me."
you couldn't help but smile back at her, feeling a rush of warmth at her words. "alright, go get our taco-bell fix,"
with a laugh, paige headed out of the room, leaving you alone with your thoughts and the promise of comfort food on the way.

sorry if my English is not understandable and messy (this is my first request, so I'm typing it with a lot of nerves). Thank youu
Packs a Punch - Roster Fic (not all of them are included)
in which your menstrual cycle affects those around you in a different way
a/n: i'm starting my period! also, i really tried to write for all of them, but i fear my brain has run out of juice...
ship[s]: johnny cage, geras, raiden, tomas vrbada x f!reader
warning(s): none, f!reader = f!genitalia, menstruation (though, people should be more informed on it regardless), throwing in some real examples from myself and other women around me
Dearest, gentle reader, periods suck- but so does having incredible healing power and super strength.
And when hormones and powers combine, a recipe of disaster is baked into reality. Luckily, your "reality" consisted of magic, gods, and eccentric people in a world 99% of the population hasn't even heard of.
Even so, sometimes they feel your wrath- even when it isn't your fault.
====================
Johnny Cage
- poor Johnny, subjected to the mercy of your power during this month's round of menstruation, especially since he's been gone for a couple of weeks for a mission
- poor guy, bringing flowers, chocolate, even a new heat packet with the latest tech (he realized heat was great aid in helping you relax)
- he was so sure he told you he'd be gone for a while during this mission, but all memory is gone when the only thing you're trying to survive your insane mood swings and even crazier cramps
- coming in your shared home, Johnny carefully treads the eerily dark and quiet home. he sees a lump on the couch, and every tip-toe closer to you is a year of his life getting crossed off his timeline
- he can hear you sniffling, and when Johnny just barely utters a soft (and wary) "hello," Johnny's sealed his fate
- you're ripping him a new one, crying about how he left you alone to deal with your cramps. how you had to take more advil and ibuprofen than the recommended limit, and how you missed him so
- Johnny's trying to approach you, carefully inching closer and closer to you with all of his peace offerings. honestly, it irks you more that he's treating you like a feral animal than a girlfriend
- "You left me, and now you look at me like I'm some helpless mutt?!"
- one minute, Johnny's seeing your tear-stained face. the next, he's seeing a playback of his life (was it always so vain?). he's also feeling the ground (except, it's supposed to be carpet, so why does it feel like drywall and wood?)
- it's not until his nose tingles, a reaction from the wood-dust and drywall shavings, and he sneezes, and he looks between you and wherever he was laying
- a comedically large, human-shaped hole was imprinted into the wall, and he can't even begin to process it as he's coaxing you to stop wasting tears on a "valid, totally valid" human reaction
Raiden
- Raiden asked his sister to describe her period symptoms in full detail once when he was fifteen (it earned him a slap in the face from her and more chores from his mother). still, she gave him the information, and it remained dormant in his mind until he met his girlfriend-you
- Raiden was attuned to the requirements to keep you comfortable during your period: hot towels, ice packs, warm baths, massages, tea, your favorite snacks and food- he has everything ready to make sure that each menstruation period of yours goes as smoothly as possible
- except when it doesn't
- it's really not his fault, you came home from Madame Bo's short-breathed and panting, sweat lining your forehead as you dropped everything and laid on the floor
- and you'd been dealing with the most awful customers, all of this not being Raiden's fault as he walks in to find you exhausted and drained
- "Are you alright, love?!" he calls out, kneeling down to get you off the dirty floor and to a cleaner space. you sigh, shaking your head as you keep yourself from letting frustrated tears fall
- you allow him to work on you, Raiden wiping your face and makeup off, wiping down your sweaty body, even him kissing your hands and everywhere else as he takes care of you
- it frustrated you, honestly, with how well he could handle everything while you were breaking apart (it's not your fault, but you're not really listening to your brain either)
- he notices your wobbly chin, and the simple question of "What's wrong, lovely?" has you breaking faster than water rushing through a dam
- you admit through warbled noises and wet tears that you hate how well-together he is, how he's always on top of everything, while you're breaking down. you also took this time to cry about work at the restaurant
Geras
- never did Geras think that someone like you could allow him to feel so human. me smiles just a little more, and you've gotten him to chuckle a few times
- though, he still lacks knowledge in other mortal/human things, especially how women's biology works, and yet he does his best to accommodate you
- Geras always brings you tea freshly brewed by Liu Kang for your periods. he's learned how to give massages as well, to ease the pain in your lower back and hips
- Geras has even asked for a sunroom to be built in the Wu Shi, Fire Temple, and the Hourglass realm- places that are familiar to both you and him. still, not even that is enough to save him from your hormonal wrath
- during this period, no tea, massages or sunlight could quell the frustration that bubbled within you. you had been waiting for ages for Geras to open the portal from the academy to the fire temple- it had been three hours since his scheduled time to do so
- cramps already twisting your insides, a searing pain in your bum, and a pulsing in your head indicated that this would not be a good week for you- and Geras just had to make it worse
- your strength got the better of you, stomping into the ground and leaving footprints into the concrete. kicking rocks didn't help either, as the projectiles brought fear to the unlucky students that were walking near you
- when Geras finally shows up, you've practically leveled the courtyard. with that glare you're giving the immortal man, he might as well be next
- "for three hours, Geras!" you screech, holding three fingers up into his face. "three! it's already hot enough with the sun out, but the fact my cramps made it even more unbearable- and this migraine! no water helped me with this either!
- you're giving him a (reasonable) earful on tardiness, how you were sweating in the scorching weather, and how he just forgot about you. obviously, the last wasn't true, he just got caught up in hourglass duties he didn't realize time passed (and can you blame him? he's dealt with enough of it...)
- "i just... i just can't believe you didn't watch the time!" you swung your arms down into his chest, and though he blocked it, he wasn't able to lock his feet in place to deal with the recoil
- he was basically punched into the wooden wall of one of the rooms of the academy. thankfully, no one was inside, but it doesn't cover up the fact he left a huge, Geras-shaped hole in the wall
- you rush over to him, frantically wiping all the splinters off his back and sides, even cleaning up the nicks of blood that began to peek through his skin
- "this is nothing, dearest," he said calmly as he wiped the precipitate off your forehead. "for the pain you endured due to my lack of diligence take more concern."
Tomas Vrbada
- Tomas doesn't remember how he dealt with his sister's periods. if anything, though, he hopes that it wasn't anything close to yours
- it's not that he doesn't love you (he has a ring all ready for you), it's just that he values his life just as much as he loves you. and honestly? he can't keep going into the infirmary of the Shirai Ryu every single month during your shark week
- this week is particularly awful: puking every morning, heat flashes, even fainting- you were not having this feeling of debilitating hopelessness stop you from continuing your daily tasks
- Tomas put you back into bed, strictly forbidding you from doing anything. while that did help some, it could've helped more if he was next to you. it didn't help that he didn't bother to check up on you the entire day
- which leads him into the current moment, trying to calm you down from a fit of pent up rage from today
- "i get that your clan means a lot to you," you began, "but I just don't understand how you couldn't take just a couple of minutes to see me?"
- you keep listing the things he should've done: should've kissed your head as a sign, should've brought you food instead of the servants, should've should've should've
- "Am I just that unbearable?" you probe, and Tomas ferverously shakes his head no. "I don't understand why you didn't see me!"
- Tomas, trying to explain his poor choices, didn't have time to react to the flurry of emotions that came out of you
- bits of anger, lots of frustration, and even more tears, Tomas was finally close enough to give you a hug- at least he thought
- no longer were you in his immediate vision, and instead he saw you running towards him, running past the drag marks in the wooden floors and through sliding door's latest design choice (why did the hole look so much like him?)
- you pet Tomas's hair, stroking the ash-colored hair and peppered his forehead and face in kisses. more tears ensued as you began to chant apologies and "i love you's"
- "no no," he said weakly, getting up from his spot in the gravel (so the courtyard was where I ended up, he thought). "i must apologize for my behavior. And if you like, we can make it up now since brother has released me from my duties."
=====================
i hope you liked this req! i really tried to add more but this is all my brain could allow me, i wrote them
i'll see yall in the next fic!

Time of the Month
AN: I'm suffering, so here's some of my faves reacting to their so having a rough time of the month.
He really doesn’t “get it”. 100% thinks you’re probably over reacting, however, you’re his sweetheart and he would do anything for you, so he’ll “play along” so long as he doesn’t need you for something else.
Won’t take time out of his busy schedule for you but he will:
Text you constantly through out the day.
Thinking of you doll x Are you sleeping? x You better be sleeping cause theres no other reason not to text back. HELLO??? ???? Sorry for loosing my temper baby, I love you. Just ordered those shoes you liked x
Will bring home/order dinner. He knows what you want, don’t worry babe, you don’t have to ask.
Still try to seduce you any way possible, he doesn’t care how messy it is.
Selina does not let her period slow her down, and so she’s hopeful that she can rub some of that off on you.
Has a yoga routine specifically catered to that time of the month that she’s happy to teach you. Has a diet plan that’s full of iron heavy and unsaturated fatty foods - leafy greens, dark chocolate, the good stuff.
Of course she understands her lifestyle isn’t for everyone, and what kind of cat themed thief would she be if she didn’t have a giant heated blanket she’s happy for you to stretch out on and spend your time lounging in true luxury.
Move over, she’s getting into bed with you. She’s stolen all of Brucie Wayne’s streaming service log ins, and she’s brought 50 different snacks that will make your bloating worse, but will feel and taste good in the moment.
Get ready for a week of binge watching whatever films make you feel good, eating way too much sugar, and sleeping whenever feels right.
Did you know orgasms can help relieve period pains, migraines, and generally relieve stress?
Did you know if you ask Waylon, he will eat you out until you can’t take anymore and/or are feeling any amount of respite?
If that’s really not your thing, be willing to also do basically anything you ask of him. Bring you snacks? Rub your back? Just hold you? Anything you want.
Will find the time look after you. Any excuse for some lazy time with his favourite birdie.
He runs hot, so it’s like having your own personal heat pad. Will find it endearing if you lay stomach down of his stomach, legs, whatever part so you can press his heat directly to the area that needs it.
Foodie and a snacker, so if you’re craving something, he’s got you covered, and he’ll eat it with you, no questions asked.
Knows a lot of ecologically friendly herbal remedies that are almost certain to work. Just sit back, chill out, and drink this tea.
In the very unlikely chance that those don’t work, and you’re down for it; Ivy is happy to fuck the cramps away, whatever your preferred method of orgasm may be.
The Riddler: Understands how periods work, but doesn’t care. You can’t let your body control you, or interfere with the mind. (yes he IS the worst kind of person when he’s sick.)
He does however have bunch of tips and tricks for helping overcome/cope with cramps and other symptoms.
Has a bucket load of ibuprofen handy at all times.
“Did you take the pills I gave you? Good. You know, coffee will help get that into your bloodstream faster, and might give you more energy. Since you’re making coffee, I’ll have one too, thanks, you’re the best. Well, I’m the best, but you’re good too.”
Request Info || Prompts || Masterlist || Ko-Fi

seventeen on your periods <3
a/n: these scenarios might or might not be inspired from my irl experiences lmfao, hope you like it as much as i liked writing it <3
svt x f!reader // headcanons // fluff // m.list words: 1.3k warnings: slight cursing
choi seungcheol
did someone say that his baby was hurting???? fully prepared with blankets, hot packs and soup to help your cramps; talked you out from your unhealthy cravings (coffee and dairy presumably worsen your cramps); used to be a bit clueless in the starting but did his research so that he could help you out <3 tries to spend his days with you and regularly texts you to see if you need anything. "WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU FEEL LIKE YOUR UTERUS IS COMING OFF?" calls 911.
yoon jeonghan
can see him teasing you for your foul mood and asking, are you on your period? on the days when you're just plainly... angry. he's eerily correct though (you usually get your periods in around 2-3 days after he quotes that hateful sentence), but is a sweet pie when you actually get them; he would take care of you, indulge in your cravings and cuddle you when you watch a series whether it be gore or the most slow burn shit you have ever seen <33
hong jisoo
he's so patient oh my god, the best one to have around to help your mood swings! he would patiently listen to your rant about how you tore the wrapper in a different way than you wanted to and then he would cheer you up??? like, oh god, marry me. he won't be clueless. at all. you're surprised that he knows so much about periods. "what do you mean coffee worsens cramps???" "yes baby, now put it down alright? I got dark chocolate for you." "you're the best<3"
wen junhui
boy makes you laugh so hard that you actually forget that you're on a period for a while lol. would cook and clean for you and gently kiss your forehead when you thank him for cooking so delicious meals; I can clearly see him calling you during shoots to ask if you need anything or if you're doing alright if he can't stay beside you (considering he travels a lot btw korea and china), would calm down your anger issues and it would almost seem like you both switched personalities. won't joke around too much because he doesn't wanna accidentally upset you, but he always and I mean always, does something so stupid that you end up cackling afterall.
kwon soonyoung
was clueless during the start despite having a sister; worked his way through research and observing you. you won't let him cook for you lmao, if you don't wanna cook you're ordering take out, but he's not cooking until he literally begs you to. but would gladly help you with other works, bringing groceries? buying sanitary pads and painkillers? stroke and play with your hair while you both cuddle together? all done. he doesn't do much but his presence calms you down, a lot. like really a lot. just him being near you is ibuprofen enough. "you sure you don't want me to do anything else?" "no... can you just hold me please?" "i will hold you for eternity <3"
jeon wonwoo
definitely tracks your periods, let's all your pre menstrual tantrums slide, will make you tea to calm down and educate you about periods, "apparently an average female spends nearly 10 years on her periods." feeds you food which helps relieve your period cramps. does every household chores if you're unable to do so, kisses your forehead amidst his work <3 oh also, would introduce you to cod/pubg where you can let go of your pent up anger (: "I WILL KILL YOU!" "you're doing great sweetheart."
lee jihoon
he's clueless, even more than hoshi. but he's smart so he caught up with it quite earlier than hoshi and you just didn't realise that he had zero and i mean ZERO idea about periods. like yeah he read about it in 8th grade but that's it, but would definitely be very attentive towards you and would spoil you with affection if that's what you desire. you just need to tell him what to do and he will do whatever you want. secretly buys your favorite food because your reactions are ten times more dramatic than normal and loves seeing you giggling because he did something nice. would get sad when you're not feeling your best though; can i do something to help uplift her mood? :(((
xu minghao
makes you green tea and asks you to meditate to calm your mood swings lmao. can see him trying his best to soothe you down by rubbing your back and playing with your hairs, gentle kisses on your cheeks as he urges you get up and take a hot shower and not act lazy. he's so prepared its almost scary than endearing. would also call you like three to five times while he's away... he would still not hesitate to calm down your delusions and force you back into reality from your sappy imagination. "i miss you :(" "i'm laying down right next to you." "i meant it figuratively!" "i miss my smart y/n too" "hey!!!!"
kim mingyu
be honest, you thought he was clueless right? he's not. not at all. he gets you hot towels to lightly soak your belly, gives you belly rubs, makes you soup, plays with your hair and massage your lower back to help your pain. you thought he was sweet? he's sweeter now! bam, you can't be mad at him anymore ahahahahaha. holds you close to him and runs his hand on your body; "I feel like shit gyu" "you're a pretty cute shit then"
lee seokmin
poor baby is clueless lmfao, you have to help him navigate through even basic stuff, definitely called you to ask your coochie's size because pads were available in different sizes. cooks you very delicious meals and fulfills all your cravings. your bad mood is not so bad anymore because he gave you his most radiant smile. his presence can heal you easily. "thought you felt sick?" "not now when you're here <3"
boo seungkwan
was sassing you out and then you started crying and then you revealed that you were on your periods and it all clicked. doesn't sass you, gossips! and gossips so much that you don't care about your cramps anymore! would sass other people to make you happy. takes care of you and regularly get you head pads for your aches, foot massages to make you happy <33 would definitely get sad when he sees you in pain tho :((
chwe hansol
man's chill as f and doesn't treat you any differently, while other members do tend to get a little cautious (more when you're bawling your eyes out after seeing a cat video), he won't treat you any different. he just kind of... adapts? you feel like shit? he does subtle things to make you feel good. you're emotional? hes there to be emotional WITH you. you want him to take care of you? no problem. he's there. always.
lee chan
please you can't not tell me that he was absolutely fucking clueless at first, was honestly scared when you lashed out on him for not picking up after himself and thought that you are always equally angry during your periods (who isn't lmao) he soon realised that you just have needs during that time and hormonal fluctuations just make you a little scary. would follow you like a puppy tho :( and carry out every single task obediently; would definitely wish to take away your pain. hes so sweet omg (would also ask your coochie's size)

What do period cramps feel like?
Period cramps also called as menstrual cramps can vary in sensation and intensity from woman to women. Generally, they are defining by a dull, throbbing pain in the lower abdomen, often radiating to the lower back and thighs.
Some describe the sensation as a constant ache, while other women may experience sharper, cramp type of pain. The pain typically occurs before or during menstruation as the uterus contracts to shed its lining.
For many women, the discomfort is manageable, but for others, it can be more intense, causing nausea, fatigue, and mood changes. The severity and specific feelings linked with period cramps can differ from one menstrual cycle to another and may be influenced by factors like age, overall health, and individual pain tolerance.

could you write a story for any of your male OC when they feel nauseous in the morning but still stubbornly continuing their activities? thank you^^
Sure, thanks anon!
Even though Theo's been sober for over a year now, he wakes up hungover. At least it feels like a hangover. He considers for a second that maybe he blacked out, but he's positive he was home all night. Still, his head is absolutely pounding, and there's an uneasy, sick feeling in his stomach. He can feel it in his throat too.
He rolls over and buries his head in the pillow, as if it'll help. It doesn't. He takes a few moments to wallow in his discomfort before forcing himself up and out of bed. He has too much shit to do today.
There's meetings all morning, and an award show tonight. He has hair and makeup and wardrobe, then the carpet, then the actual show. Then an after-party a club in midtown. He probably won't be home tonight until 3 or 4 in the morning, and the thought alone makes his stomach feel even worse.
Worst of all, Seamus is not here. He's flying back from LA and he won't get in until about 2 AM, so Theo has to do everything by himself.
With any luck, the nausea and headache will go away once he has some food and takes an ibuprofen. He's not feeling particularly lucky.
His meetings are all video calls, but there are about five of them back to back, and he'll need to be awake and paying attention and looking presentable for all of them. He wolfs down some crappy scrambled eggs, ibuprofen, and coffee before the first meeting, but it doesn't seem to help. If anything, it's just getting worse. His stomach is cramping now, his head throbbing behind his eyes. Staring at the screen is pure torture, and he's tempted to put some sunglasses on, but he just lowers the brightness as much as he can and sips the peppermint tea Seamus always makes him drink when he's nauseous, even though it never seems to work that well.
In the middle of meeting four, the nausea spikes, and he knows he's about to vomit.
"Excuse me for one second," he says, voice wavering, before rushing to the bathroom. He makes it just in time, not even kneeling down before throwing up into the toilet bowl. When he's done, he's shaking all over, dizzy and exhausted. His head still hurts, but his stomach seems to have calmed down, which is a relief. He rinses his mouth as quickly as he can before walking back to where his laptop is perched on the coffee table.
He's half asleep for the rest of the meeting, just nodding along to whatever's said, and by the time meeting five rolls around, his stomach has started to churn again.
Still, he tries to ignore it, even as every sip of tea makes him want to gag. Every time he speaks he's afraid he's going to puke, but he manages to make it through without having to take another break. That said, by the time he closes his computer, he's in a cold sweat and shivering from trying to hold back the urge to throw up.
The second trip to the bathroom doesn't make him feel that much better, but at least he's no longer on the verge of puking. He has a half hour before the hair and makeup people arrive, but he knows better than to try and eat. He drinks a little more tea and takes more ibuprofen, but right as the whole crew is arriving, he throws it back up.
He's sure he looks terrible, but the stylists don't mention it. He barely speaks. His stomach hurts too much, his head is throbbing too hard. he can't even think straight, let alone put together a sentence.
The next thing he knows, he's on the red carpet, and his stomach feels the worst it has all day. The feeling of his waistband against his bloated stomach is hell, and he's actively having to swallow the bile he feels rising in the back of his throat. By the end of the carpet, he's sure if he opens his mouth he'll be projectile vomiting everywhere, but luckily for him, he manages to hold it back until he finds the bathroom inside the venue.
He's sure his stylist would be appalled if they knew he was kneeling on a bathroom floor in his thousand dollar suit pants, but Theo can't be bothered to care. He's too busy puking up the gatorade he drank in the car. His fever is only going up, and he wishes more than anything that he could just go home and get out of this suit and curl up in one of Seamus's sweatshirts, but can't. He's stuck here til midnight, then he'll have to show his face at the after party. The thought makes him want to cry, but he just wipes his chin and gets back up to face the rest of the night from hell.

I just wanna say I am 16 and have not started puberty after reading your post I don't want my period lol. Ugh
I won’t lie. Periods are rough as exampled by the post I had made
It was also worse for me though because my lower spine is unstable and the cramps caused the muscles to contract around it making the pain spread much further. That likely won’t happen to you
I do have some things that really help with period cramps that are very affordable
1. Raspberry leaf tea.
This is an herbal remedy that has been studied if you want to look it up.
It tastes kind of minty and I find that hot water is required for the brew but the lower the boil the better. Only 8 oz of water. Let the tea bag sit for for 10 minutes and then I like to add way too much brown sugar but whatever you prefer
You can also take it in pill form
2. Hydration
So tea makes you have to go pee so you really have to make sure your drinking water if you use the tea
But also water helps clear out lactic acid
Whether or not lactic acid causes your muscles to cramp is argued about in studies but I personally find that being hydrated is better than not being hydrated
3. Heat
Heat packs can easily be made with a sock and some rice but if you want a flatter one you can also look up how to make a weighted blanket and do a smaller version with rice instead of beads
You can apply it to exactly where it hurts
Or along your back
Or you can sit on it
I know the last one sounds weird but it helps so much I swear
4. Exercise
I know it can be hard especially because periods can be exhausting but helps
https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT8YUwS91/
This video is really useful
5. Eating
I know with my cramps especially eating can be hard
But 90% of the time it helps
Literally anything helps
But I find protein dense food is the best even though carbs are what I always crave
6. Showers
You will likely end up feeling sticky or gross at the beginning and end of each day
Just rinsing off in the shower helps
This will also help your mental health because your period will mess with that
7. Rest and Communication
Rest is critical your body will be doing a lot
But if your family is anything like mine you will have to communicate multiple times that you need rest
It can be awkward to talk about your period but just pretend like it’s normal until it is even in front of boys this will help you a lot later if you ever on your period at school or later in work
The best phrases I find help (it will be different for everyone but you can use this a guide) the more confidently said (you can still be confident and quiet if you don’t want other people to know) the more likely the other person will be understanding/uncomfortable but not willing to say anything
“Hey, I just started my period. The cramps are really bad can I do *thing that helps you with cramps*”
“Hey, I’m on my period can I be excused from *things that might strenuous and stressful*”
“I really need to lay down. I’m tired and I’m in pain. Can I please do that?”
Another thing is that it might make you very irritable and you might have to get ready to apologize
It sucks
Especially because most of the time it’s because people are doing things they aren’t supposed to in the first place
But being female/afab means being socially responsible for responsible for other people’s stupidity and you getting annoyed with said stupidity
However don’t apologize for being on your period just apologize for your behavior. Apologizing for your period will cause them to (not always intentionally but some of them do) try to use your period to justify you being in a bad mood and therefore they should be able to get away with more
You can also take ibuprofen, Excedrin, Midol, and Pamprin
Don’t take more then the recommended amount. If the recommended amount isn’t working don’t go higher.
I have had doctors to tell me to just take more until I state out how many mgs that is and then they make a face and have to decide whether or not they want to back track or not
It’s not worth your liver, if the pain isn’t stopping with the recommended amount of pain killer then something is wrong and it needs to be checked out
Keep up to date with period studies. It can be frustrating but it’s good to know how science sees your bodily functions
A good example of this is that it wasn’t until this year that a study was done on period products that used blood instead of saline. This is going to change how doctors diagnose heavy bleeding
Anyways that’s all I got off the top of my head
But feel free to ask more questions.
I am an older sister to 3 younger siblings I got some experience

How to Get Your Period in One Hour?
How to Get Your Period in One Hour?
How to get periods overnight? How to get periods immediately if delayed? There are always several questions like this in your head, searching for accurate answers. As a woman, you would have come across many myths about inducing a period.
Is it safe to induce your period? Should you rely on home remedies or medication? While the internet offers numerous solutions, their effectiveness is often unproven.
In this article, we’ll review safe natural methods for inducing your period, discuss the potential causes of delays, and advise when to consult a gynecologist. Get to know the answer to how to get your period in one hour.
Causes of Delayed Periods
Stress:
High levels of stress can cause the body to release cortisol, disrupting hormonal balance and leading to irregular or missed periods.
Hormonal Imbalance:
Menstrual irregularities are frequently linked to imbalances in hormones like progesterone and estrogen, which can affect the frequency and intensity of your cycles.
Weight Changes:
Significant fluctuations in weight, whether gain or loss, can impact hormone production and may result in delayed periods. A low body weight, in particular, can disrupt menstrual cycles since fat is necessary for producing menstruation-related hormones.
Excessive Exercise:
Intense workout routines can interfere with your menstrual cycle. Over-exercising may lead to delays in your period.
Medical Conditions:
Certain medical issues, such as thyroid disorders, reproductive health concerns, and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), can also result in delayed periods.
Foods to get Periods Immediately
Papaya:
Raw papaya is believed to promote uterine contractions, potentially bringing on menstruation. Its carotene content can elevate estrogen levels, possibly triggering an earlier cycle. Consume it raw or as juice twice daily.
Pineapple:
Containing bromelain, pineapple may help regulate menstrual flow and alleviate cramps. Research suggests it could reduce inflammation, which may be linked to irregular periods.
Ginger:
Ginger can raise body temperature, possibly leading to earlier periods. It's better to consume it in tea or cooked dishes rather than raw.
Dates:
Rich in iron, fiber, and natural sugars, dates may increase body temperature and encourage menstruation if eaten before your period.
Sesame Seeds:
Loaded with nutrients and healthy fats, sesame seeds contain lignans that might help regulate estrogen levels, promoting menstruation.
Spices:
Spices like ajwain, cinnamon, cardamom, black pepper, and turmeric can stimulate the menstrual cycle, so consider adding them to your meals.
Yoga for Inducing Your Period
How to get your period in one hour with exercise? Is it possible to get periods early by doing yoga and exercise? Most people can practice yoga at home, a physical meditation type. This age-old method is used daily by a large number of people to enhance their well-being. It could be possible to control periods by doing yoga.
Bow Pose (Dhanurasana):
This pose enhances blood flow to the pelvic area and stimulates abdominal organs, helping to regulate the menstrual cycle while reducing stress.
Camel Pose (Ustrasana):
This stretch can improve blood circulation in the pelvic region and help balance hormones, potentially inducing menstruation.
Cobra Pose (Bhujangasana):
Cobra pose stimulates the abdominal area, increases blood flow, and may assist in hormonal balance.
Butterfly Pose (Baddha Konasana):
This pose encourages blood circulation in the pelvic area and may alleviate menstrual discomfort while promoting regularity.
Which tablet is used to get periods immediately?
Progestin-only Pills:
These can help balance hormones and may induce menstruation. Combined oral contraceptives, containing both progesterone and estrogen, can also help regulate cycles.
GnRH Agonists:
Typically used to manage endometriosis, these injections can delay menstruation. NSAIDs like ibuprofen can alleviate period pain without inducing menstruation.
Always consult with a doctor before taking any medication to induce menstruation, as individual needs and potential side effects vary.
Additional Methods to Induce Your Period
Sexual Activity:
Orgasm can cause cervical dilation, allowing menstrual blood to flow. Engaging in sexual activity can also help reduce stress and maintain hormonal balance.
Exercise:
Targeted lower body exercises can help stimulate your menstrual cycle. Moderate physical activity may assist in restoring hormonal balance for those with irregular periods.
Warm Baths or Heat Packs:
Applying heat to your lower abdomen may improve blood flow and potentially trigger menstruation. A hot bath can also help you relax, which may be beneficial.
When to Consult a Doctor
Seek medical advice if you experience any of the following:
- Periods stop before age 45
- Regularly irregular cycles
- Missing three consecutive periods without pregnancy
- Bleeding during or after sex
- Any bleeding post-menopause
Conclusion
Irregular periods can result from various factors such as hormonal imbalances, stress, poor diet, and conditions like PCOS. Leading a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise, a balanced diet, and adequate sleep is the most effective way to ensure timely periods.
Consult the best gynecologist in Bangalore and clear all your doubts about menstrual issues and reproductive health.

Understanding Menstrual Cramps: Menstrual cramps, also known as dysmenorrhea, are caused by uterine contractions that occur during menstruation. These contractions help expel the uterine lining but can cause pain and discomfort for many individuals.

Heat Therapy: Applying heat to the abdomen with a heating pad, warm towel, or warm bath can help relax the uterine muscles and relieve cramping.
Exercise: Engaging in regular physical activity, such as walking, swimming, or yoga, can help reduce menstrual cramps by improving blood circulation and releasing endorphins, which act as natural pain relievers.
Dietary Changes: Consuming a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins can help reduce inflammation and alleviate menstrual cramps. Avoiding caffeine, alcohol, and salty foods may also help.
Herbal Remedies: Some herbs, such as ginger, cinnamon, and chamomile, have anti-inflammatory properties and may help reduce menstrual cramps when consumed as teas or supplements.
Stress Management: Practicing relaxation techniques like deep breathing, meditation, or mindfulness can help reduce stress levels, which may contribute to menstrual cramps.
By incorporating these strategies into your routine, you can effectively reduce menstrual cramps and improve your overall menstrual experience.

Alleviating Menstrual Cramps: Medications, Home Remedies & Prevention Tips
Almost every woman can understand this feeling – the unbearable pain under the belly indicating that your period is here. Menstrual pain can be just a mild discomfort for some women, but it could be severely disturbing pain for others, disrupting even the simplest routine tasks. It can also affect your quality of life for those particular days.
When dealing with such discomfort, you automatically look for comfort in various tablets for menstrual pain. Several over-the-counter medicines are available to help you see the pain and get back to your normal life. However, it is crucial to understand that not everything is going to suit your body. From a number of pain relief products available in the market, you must know the one that best suits your pain type and body needs.
This blog aims to help you learn about the various strategies for menstrual cramps management. Read about various medications, home remedies, and preventive measures to get long-lasting relief and improve overall well-being during menstruation.
What are Menstrual Cramps?
Menstrual cramps, scientifically called dysmenorrhea, occur due to the movements in the uterus. Your uterus sheds its lining during menstruation, leading to contractions triggered by the release of prostaglandins, hormone-like substances that cause the muscles in the uterus to contract. Higher levels of prostaglandins lead to more intense contractions, resulting in more severe cramps.
Tablets for Menstrual Pain & Cramp Relief
Many women usually feel that over-the-counter medication is effective in getting relief from menstrual cramps. Here are some of the commonly used pain relief products and medicines:
Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs)
NSAIDs such as ibuprofen, aspirin, etc., are commonly used to relieve menstrual cramps. They work by lowering the amount of prostaglandins your body makes. Prostaglandins can make your uterus contract and lead to cramps. NSAIDs can also reduce inflammation, which can add to the pain during your period.
Acetaminophen
Acetaminophen is another over-the-counter pain reliever that can help alleviate menstrual cramps. Unlike NSAIDs, acetaminophen does not reduce inflammation. But it can still effectively reduce pain associated with menstruation. Remember to follow the recommended dose to avoid liver damage.
Combination Medications
Some over-the-counter medicines are made specifically to help with menstrual cramps. They might contain a mix of ingredients, like a pain reliever (like acetaminophen, ibuprofen, etc.) and a diuretic (to reduce bloating). These medicines can give you relief from several period symptoms at once.
Prescription Medications
If your menstrual cramps are very severe and over-the-counter medicines don't help, your doctor might prescribe stronger pain relievers or other medicines to manage your symptoms. It's important to use these medicines exactly as your doctor tells you to.
RESET tablets
RESET Pain Relief Tablets are a natural and safe solution crafted from herbal ingredients, guaranteeing a side-effect-free remedy for pain. These tablets prioritize your well-being, offering an effective alternative without compromising on results. They are entirely herbal and can be safely used alongside other medications, ensuring compatibility with your ongoing treatment.
Home Remedies
While medicines work for most women, not all of you can benefit from them. Here are some home remedies that can also help get relief.
Eating foods rich in calcium, omega-3 fatty acids, and magnesium and reducing intake of caffeine, alcohol, and salty foods can help reduce the severity of menstrual cramps.
Taking a warm bath/shower or applying a heating pad to the pain area can help relax the uterus muscles and reduce menstrual cramp pain.
Certain herbal remedies, like ginger tea, cinnamon, chamomile tea, etc., are believed to have anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties that can help ease menstrual cramps.
Doing regular physical activities, like swimming, walking, etc., can also help alleviate menstrual cramps as they increase blood flow in the body and release endorphins, which are considered to be natural pain relievers.
Prevention Tips
Other than using pain relief products and home remedies, some preventive measures can also assist in keeping your menstrual cramps under control:
Maintain a healthy lifestyle with well-balanced diet and regular exercise.
Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water.
Consider using hormonal birth control to regulate your menstrual cycle.
Explore alternative therapies like acupuncture or chiropractic care.
Consult your healthcare expert or doctor if you have severe cramps for personalized advice.
Final Word
Menstrual cramps are a common and often uncomfortable part of menstruation for many women. However, with the right approach, including tablets for menstrual pain, home remedies, and preventive measures, you can easily get relief from the disturbing pain and discomfort felt during these cramps and improve productivity. By understanding the different causes and exploring various treatment options for menstrual cramps, women can take proactive steps to manage this common issue and enjoy better well-being during their menstrual cycles.
