Studies show that eating dark chocolate can help make your period easier to deal with. Eat a piece of chocolate to boost your mood between classes or for a burst of energy when you’re just feeling “blah.” If you don’t like dark chocolate, add a package of mints, which can help to soothe mild cramps and stomach pain. Ibuprofen and naproxen are helpful medications that can temporarily relieve cramps. Check your school’s policy before purchasing the medication. Look for a small package to fit in your bag, and only include it if you’re allowed to take them to school.  Some schools don’t let students carry medicine with them. However, you can talk to your school nurse and have a parent drop off a bottle of ibuprofen or naproxen in the office in case you need it to handle cramps or a headache. If you have cramps, ask to visit the nurse, and they will give you the right dose. You can find small containers of medication at most grocery stores and pharmacies. In some bathrooms, you might not be able to wash your hands after changing your pad or tampon. In that case, use a drop of hand sanitizer to ensure that your hands are clean and free of germs.  Be sure to seal the bottle of hand sanitizer tightly when you put it back in the bag to prevent it from spilling on the rest of the items. If you don’t want to include liquid hand sanitizer, look for sanitizing wipes in the supermarket. With wipes, there’s no risk for a leak or spill! Most women have a menstrual cycle that takes about 28-30 days, with their period lasting for 5-7 days. It can be helpful to have a calendar or notepad on hand to mark the first and last day of your period, and to check that it's coming every month. If you notice that you don't get a monthly period or have your period for more than 7 days at a time after the first 5-6 months, talk to your doctor about possible causes for this. It can take some time for your period to become regular, so be patient and try not to worry!
