Take a warm bath ? it may seem like an obvious solution but a warm bath will relieve cramping as well as backache. It will also help psychologically relax you and help you feel better? a little pampering can go a long way. Add a few essential oils such as relaxing lavender or chamomile.
Use a hot water bottle ? If you?re experiencing severe cramps fill up a hot water bottle, wrap it in a towel and hold in on your tummy. The heat will help reduce the cramping and help you feel better.
Mediate ? Although your mood swings during PMS are hormonal you can help calm your mind and reduce the severity of the mood swings.
