Girls Talk

I always wonder if it's supposed to be Girl's Talk, Girls' Talk, or Girls Talk. Anyway.

My period has been irregular ever since it started. Sometime it came every other month, sometime in one month, sometime in three monthes. Though, maybe after 15 years since it started, finally I think I got a grasp of when it's starting. Couple days before my period starts, I get severe shoulder ache, which leads to headache, and constipation. Last time when I had period, it was so severe that I had to lay down most of the time, and even used salonpas to relieve the pain around my shoulder.

Why do girls get PMS, premenstrual syndrome? I always thought PMS is a Japanese equivalent of 生理痛, but I guess not. It's premenstrual, and that's exactly what I'm getting right now.

I remember once reading that we get PMS when you're stressed. Maybe. Now when I read more articles on the net, it says you get PMS when you're lacking calsium and magnesium. So... drink milk and... I don't know, eat food listed here? Before when I got PMS, I thought I'm lacking iron and thus getting the pain, so I often ate chocolate. Though, one of the website says it's better to stay away from food that contains cafein, and chocolate is listed as one of them. Ouch. I was eating chocolate bread at the very moment when I read that article, and my motion literally stopped.

I just hope this pain will go away soon. I got black sesame drink from one of my coworkers a while ago, so maybe I'll go drink that instead of eating more of chocolate bread.
