    I learned a few months ago that no matter how crappy I feel, exercising actually helps. Especially running is wonderful for it. If I go running when I have cramps and generally feel like crap, I feel ten times better afterwards and the cramps are usually gone. I wonder why.

    yes, I wear a menstrual cup so no worrying about leaks, tampon strings or chafing/sweaty pads. my cramps are also much better since switching from tampons/pads.

    I also like endorphin rush, and just do more gentle stretches afterwards if I'm feeling crabby.

    more info here: http://sizecharts.livejournal.com/ (or you can PM me as I admin a couple of menstrual cup support groups, just don't automatically buy a mooncup as they are crap and there are over 30 different brands available)
