Menstrual period are ready tough times for women, and as a man, it’s sometimes difficult to know what to do for her because you have no idea what going on and how much pain she’s going through.
The menstrual period is the most uncomfortable week for any woman and she gets to undergo it every month.
When she is on her period, she experiences cramps, headaches, mood swings and acne.
A period package is a gift box you give a woman when she is menstruating so she feels loved and supported.
Boyfriends and husbands, here are some things to get your woman when she is on her period.

Yes! You saw correctly. Dark chocolate helps relieve menstrual cramps because it contains magnesium and that relaxes the muscles.
2. Sanitary Pads
Do you know how expensive pads are? It sometimes feels like an essential but unnecessary item. Buying them for her will be such a relief.
3. Pantyliners
Now, men, you might be hearing this for the first time, but panty liners are little pads a woman wears so, she doesn’t stain her pants.
4. Pain relievers
Try and get her pain relievers like paracetamol, diclofenac or ibuprofen (if she doesn’t have an ulcer) to ease the pain.
5. Period panties
No woman can say no to new underwear so, get her some good cotton underwear.

What are her favourite fruits? Add some apples, strawberries, pineapples or bananas or her favourite fruit.
