PMS Stomach Cramps? Go exercise IMMEDIATELY!

Wooo hooo!!! I always thought my idea of removing stomach cramps during period is silly or just plain weird. And then I talked to my little sister recently and found out that it works for her too!

I think I've mentioned this in my previous post about my and my family members' bad experience with periods. Anyway, when it comes to my little sister's monthly period it seems to go bad to worse. At first, she only got nasty cramps. Then it got nastier until at one point she vomits during her periods. It's really painful to look at. She looks so.. pitiful.

Me and my mom feel bad for her but can't help but think that it's her fault for not eating supplements mom bought for her to help with her PMS problems. I mean, she knows it's gonna be nasty and yet she didn't take proper precautions to avoid that. So when she moans, it's kinda yeah, we know, we pity you but you deserve it..... So moan all you want, it's not gonna help.

So imagine my surprise when she told me a few days ago that her period is not bad at all compared to her previous experience. I asked what did she do. She said, "I exercise a bit. Go down and up the upstairs until I sweat".

I was kinda baffled because I don't remember sharing with her or anyone that tips. Like I said, it sounds silly and weird so I never share it with anyone (uh, until recently that is but that's another story). I share it in my blog because... it's my blog and I want to share my opinion with anyone who cares to read it.

So anyway, I asked her again, where did she got that idea from. And she said, "Actually it has been a long time I realized this. When I was in high school, when I was active with uh, Judo, Karate? What was it that I join during high school with you?", "Taekwando", I answered her. "Oh yeah, Taekwando. I've never suffered during my periods".

Yeah, that was news to me too. I thought she always had it. :P Hihi.... Anyway, continue..

"The cramps started after I finish high school..". Erm, I forgot what she said but it has something to do with she got the idea that being less active after high school started the cramps. So she thought exercise might help her with the cramps and it did. Awesome, isn't it?

No need for drugs, pills, supplements... just exercise and it's gone!

I wonder if it will work with others too. I shared this info with my cousin a day earlier before this conversation. I don't know if she takes it seriously or not. I hope she did because I want to ask her the result :)
