 So much easier -- and more portable -- than a heating pad, I love these ThermaCare heatwraps for menstrual cramps. Definite a required item during your period, along with chocolate, and a comfy pillow!

Light Therapy
 
To combat the effects of seasonal effective disorder, winter blues, and even hormonal imbalances, light therapy can be an effective natural treatment. Remember you need to use a lamp that is 10,000 lux or more. I like this Nature Bright Inspiration Lamp. It's smaller and easier, and less costly, than many light therapy lamps.
