Vicious Cycle
Request by Anon! Thank you so much for requesting! Wrote this from personal experience from suffering from endometriosis...minus my own personal Billy 🤧 hope you enjoy!
“Hello! Would you do a Billy X Reader where she's having that time of the month and Billy is so sweet and fluff? 💜”
———————————————————————
Billy was very familiar with women. From knowing how to make a woman nearly cry from an orgasm, to knowing what to say to make a woman forgive him for being a jackass...he’s very fluent in women.
So being around someone when they’re on their period...is nothing new.
The one time he let a woman sleep over, she bled through his sheets through the night. Though that wasn’t the reason why he never let anyone stay over again, he knows it’s natural and normal, and would rather not deal with the woman being embarrassed by it. He knows it happens.
He knows some women get angry, more upset than usual...and he knows some don’t even appear to be bothered by it or have it affect them at all.
He also knows, besides the mood swings, about cramps. The one girl he was ever even remotely close to dating-way back in high school-always had very bad cramps.
You, however, were a bit more to handle. You had endometriosis. And the pain you’d experience during your cycle is like none other. Between the stabbing-like back pain, and the pelvic pain that felt like contractions, you often had to call out of work when your period came around. You could barely even get out of bed because of the nausea and Curtis would always force you to stay home when he knew it was near your time of the month. He had learned to even download a period tracker just to keep an eye on how you’d be feeling in case he wasn’t around at home. And when he was home, he was always offering you pain pills, heating pads, and whatever foods you would be craving.
So when your cycle came quicker than the last - a whole TWO WEEKS EARLY - and heavier than ever, you nearly felt like you had to go to the hospital. Curtis had went out of town for the weekend to visit family so the last thing you wanted to do was bother him just because you had started your period.
It was times like this when you really realized how grateful you are for a roommate like Curtis. You were also grateful it was Saturday so you wouldn’t have to miss work, but you also didn’t want to waste the weekend in bed. You had been and out of sleep nearly all day; this period was literally draining you.
When you finally checked your phone, you saw you had five missed calls and several texts from Billy.
B. Russo 🙄: Hey, princess, leaving now, see you soon.
B. Russo 🙄: Just pulled up. Where are you?
B. Russo 🙄: Hellooo?
B. Russo 🙄: I know you joke and say you hate me, but it’s not like you to stand me up. Let me know you’re ok please.
B. Russo 🙄: I’m calling Curt.
Shit. You had completely forgot you agreed to go to the store with Billy to help him pick out new furniture for his office. He left you a few voicemails, one by one sounding less annoyed and aggravated...and more concerned and worried. He never texted or called after he said he was calling Curtis, so you figured Curt must’ve eased his mind. Though you do wonder what he told Billy.
You had a text from Curtis asking where you were, what you were doing, why you were ignoring Billy...and then a text of realization where he assumed - correctly - that you must’ve started your period. Curtis was just that great.
You sighed and typed out a quick reply to Curtis as you called Billy. His last text to you was about 30 minutes ago and you wanted to apologize for ditching him. But the second you hit call, there was a knock on your door.
You slowly got out of bed, feeling like you were taking an inch of a step every other minute. It took a lot out of you just to walk out of your room and to the front door. When you saw it was Billy through the peephole, you frowned. Maybe Curtis didn’t reply to him fast enough and he rushed over to check on you.
You opened the door and Billy nearly knocked you over, looking slightly frantic. “Y/N, you really worried the shit out of me.” He had a bag of groceries in his hand and quickly put his other arm around your waist, ushering you to the couch. “Sit down. Honestly, you and Curt should just give me a key.”
You were so confused. What the fuck was going on? “Billy, I was just going to call you...I’m sorry I bailed. I just woke up a little bit ago...but I’m fine. Really. What are you doing here?”
“Well you didn’t answer me for nearly 2 hours. For someone who’s glued to their phone, I figured you were pissed at me for some reason, but I know you never hold your tongue and you never have a problem telling me if you’re upset with me.” He smirked at you as he started pulling Advil, water bottles, tampons, pads, chocolate and bananas out of the bag. “So I called Curt. He tried to be discreet but I got it out of him.” He pulled out a brand new heating pad out of one of the bags and you stared at him wide eyed.
You weren’t embarrassed of men knowing when you’re on your period. You didn’t give a fuck. Hell, in high school, you cussed out your biology teacher in front of the whole class for not letting you go to the bathroom after you told him, “I have to change my tampon, Mr. Lacey!” But you weren’t expecting Billy to rush over with the most stereotypical self-care, go-to period products.
“Um...okay. I-I mean don’t get me wrong, Bill. I appreciate what you’re trying to do here but you really didn’t...you really don’t have to-“
“Stop. Now just sit. You still have tea in your cupboard right? Curt said rose tea helps.” He had laid out the bananas and chocolate near you as he put tampons and pads in your bathroom and then walked into the kitchen to make you tea. You actually couldn’t believe your eyes. You thought you may be dreaming. Why was he doing this?
You were honestly so exhausted and more lightheaded than usual - despite it being your heaviest period you’ve had in a while - you also hadn’t eaten. You grabbed one of the bananas and began to peel it as Billy came back into the living room with a cup of tea. He stopped abruptly as he watched you eat the banana and bit his lip. You caught him staring and rolled your eyes at him. “What, Russo?”
He grinned and shook his head as he placed the tea down on the table. “Just...thinking.”
“Save it for your wank bank later.” You glared at him as you but into the banana roughly and he laughed as he plugged in the heating pad and placed it behind your back. He took out a few pain killers and put it onto the small coffee table to your left and went to your room to fetch you your other heating pad you had left on your bed. You blushed remembering you woke up to a mess in your bed, but Billy came back to you putting the other heating pad on your middle and then went back to your room. You were beginning to get dizzy watching him bounce from room to room.
Even more so to your surprise, he came out of your room with your bedsheets and went to the laundry room to wash your sheets. You must be mad. You were losing your mind...right? You still had your phone in your hand and you texted Curtis, “What the hell did you tell billy?”
Curtis 🤗 the Roomie: He got the truth out of me. Sorry. Didn’t mean to put your business out there but he was ruthless.
You: he’s going insane...he came in with groceries and made me tea and now he’s washing my sheets?
You: am i hallucinating?
Curtis 🤗 the Roomie: lol enjoy it while it lasts. Call me if you need anything.
When Billy came back into the living room, he sat next to you on the couch gently, careful to not cause any discomfort to your end of the cushion. He exhaled a deep breath and then looked at you and smiled. “How are you feeling?”
You stared at him like he had four heads. “Billy...” you were definitely feeling out of it. “I have no idea what’s going on right now. Maybe I’m dreaming still. But you’re incredible.” You could feel yourself blushing as you took a sip of your tea and swallowed the medicine.
“You’re not the first to tell me that,” he winked at you. “I figured I should check on you. I knew Curt wasn’t home so...” he shrugged as he looked over to the tv and leaned over to grab the remote.
You couldn’t stop staring at him. He turned the tv on and began flipping through channels, eventually stopping at your favourite show that was on.
“Billy.” You leaned over a bit to get him to look at you. “Thank you. Honestly. I ... literally, this... i wasn’t expecting any of this...at all. I really appreciate it.” You smiled weakly at him as you unwrapped the chocolate bar. He was watching you break a small piece and pop it into your mouth as you handed him a piece.
“No thanks needed, princess.” He smiled back as he took the chocolate and bit into it. “Guess i should download a period tracker to keep my eye on you, too.”
You didn’t have the energy to playfully snap back so you snuggled more into the couch as you and Billy spent the rest of the afternoon eating junk food and watching tv before you fell back asleep.
Curtis may not be home this weekend...but you didn’t mind.

Hihi Cat! I've come to deliver some good news! (This is pretty long huhu ToT)
MY ERB HAS BEEN APPROVED AND I CAN PROCEED TO RECRUIT PARTICIPANTS!! Ahh it's been such a blessing to be able to proceed immediately! I've actually hit my target amount of participants in less than a day (IT'S CRAZY) but I'm gonna collect more responses cuz the more the better! (Would you wanna check the questionnaire out? I can PM you the link!! :3)
Also also I PASSED THAT FINALS! The one I took a day after my vaccination (1st dose) ToT GAHH I'm so happy I won't even ask for more, it's enough :3
I've been writing my thesis during this sem break but it's progressing pretty slowly cuz I've been so drained from last semester and the vaccine itself. Huhu but I've written a brief rundown for my proposal so there's a rough idea there, just needa rly assemble it into a clear narrative. And yes I agree! Psychology studies are a beautiful fusion of science & human essence imo, and its fascinating learning more abt ourselves and how we as the human species progress in life ya know? 😌
I got my second dose exactly a week ago and got the same side effects - headache, arm soreness, hunger, fatigue; I felt like a fusion of psyduck & snorlax HAHAHAHA 😂 - it wasn't anything serious so yay I'm fully vaccinated! (in a few weeks time keke I'll be)
HAHAHAHA my vaccination appointments were pretty eventful. The nurses and volunteers were all so warm and friendly! I'm the type of person who feels whatever's being injected into me, it's not the pain that I wanna distract myself from (it wasn't pain tbh) but that sluggish discomfort I get from the needle ejaculation >//< sooo as they showed me the vile and syringe before injecting me, I prepped my Yangyang photocard in my hand. During my second dose, the nurse thought I had some fancy way of taking a video when in actual fact I was just looking at my Yangyang photocard hehe UwU she asked me whether I wanted to see the needle going in (smtg I can't look at tbh) and I was like HELL NAH ToT
And also some recap from the previous ask!
There's no need to apologise for the delayed response okie!! UwU my sem break is ending this week, but I've spent my time completing my academic research trainee tasks (transcribing audio clips), I've also created the content & design for my uni's newsletter, did some thesis writing, and I took a course on financial planning on Coursera to prep myself for the adulting life ToT
And idm sharing my back up / failed topics! I didn't have a lot of cards in my hands, but here are some of em!
1) time perspective and meaning in life 2) anticipatory nostalgia 3) not a topic but a variable! fragility of happiness / happiness aversion
what ideas did you settle on for yr art pieces? If you dm sharing, I'd love to hear abt it! 💖💖💖
Tbh I can't think of a fav ice cream flavor hmm 🤔 i rly didn't think it'd be so hard thinking of a fav ice cream flavor but the first that comes to mind is green tea! I like them milky flavored ice cream😍 though my fav from this ice cream place I go to is thai milk tea, it's so fragrant and milky!! 🥺💖 I just got myself a tub of milk & biscoff gelato keke UwU what's yr fav ice cream flavor? :3
For my course structure:
We have 2 long sems (Jan - Apr, & Aug - Dec, 16 weeks) & a short sem (May - July, 9 weeks)! Our sem breaks are only around a month then it's back to sleepless nights ToT AND YES those weeks were the most stressful weeks ever 🥺😭 I'm glad I'm graduating soon for that reason 😂(though idk what awaits in the working world ToT that is another fear I have :/)
Thank you for being part of this journey and being open to listening to my lil adventures! 🥺🙆🏻‍♀️💖😭 esp w the amount of responses and ppl helping me, I feel a lil more motivated to work and excel in this pregnancy (thesis, I call it pregnancy cuz it's around 9 months too HEHE) Since the pandemic, it's been pretty hard separating studies & hobbies :/ I've learnt it the hard way from my period cramps last sem (mine's the severe type where you can faint ToT), and it was also on my last paper for finals !! Very traumatizing ._. but I'll continue to manage myself better! :3
Huhu Cat since you're working now, I also wanna ask abt yr experience in job seeking! Cuz unemployment is a real deal here esp. w everything that's going on :') I don't have working experience either (only had 1 through internship) and it literally feels like I'm going into the unknown ToT I've been running over some case studies and assessments just to better prep myself for this. Do you have any advice as someone who's already working? UwU
Take care and stay lovely as always!! 💖💖💖
hi, sweetpea !!!! 🌸 omg major congratulations for getting your ERB approved, honey bee !!!!! 🥳🥳🥳 that’s absolutely amazing, and I’m uber proud of you 🥺💗💗 also, it’s wonderful that you hit the required number of participants so quickly !!!!! (And I would love to participate if the questionnaire is still open 🤧)
AND HECK YEAAA CONGRATS ON PASSING THE FINAL TOO 🤩🤩🤩🤩 big congrats to you all around, miss smarty pants 💓💓💓
Oh gosh, I hope you got to rest during your semester break too ): you’re working so hard, please remember to take care of yourself !! 💕 your mental health is more important 🤍 have you finalized your proposal now? And omg yes exactly !!! It’s so interesting to see the thought process behind an action and how it can be manipulated or influenced by various stimulants or there’s also the argument between nature versus nurture too and how that affects psychology and it’s just all so cool to learn about 🤩
Omg you had so many symptoms, I’m so sorry to hear that 😭 I only had a sore arm, but that’s what happens when I get any shot 🤧 I hope you’re feeling better now 💘💘
I’m really glad to hear that the nurses and volunteers were kind and friendly !! it’s always comforting to have nice people as doctors, especially when you’re trusting them to stick a needle in you bshdjdjdkd omg yangyang to the rescue !!!! 💞💞 we’re not allowed to record record any medical appointments, like I think the nurse thought the person in front of me in line was recording when they were getting their vaccine and said they weren’t allowed to do that 😅 and aaaaa I always have to look when they inject me, I don’t like being taken by surprise 🤧
oh my gosh you were so productive over your semester break !!!! :o and oooo you do content & design for your school’s newsletter? Do you do stuff like graphic designing and write articles? 💓 and how was the financial planning course !! Did you learn a lot? Did you like the studies? :’)
aaaaa those topics sound so cool ??? 🤩🤩 I would definitely be down to read about those omg 💛
for my 3D design class, I decided to do lightbulbs and flowers as my overarching theme for my art pieces !! I included a couple pictures below under the cut at the bottom 💓 the first one is a soft sculpture made out of newspaper, and there’s a pencil next to it for size reference, the second one is made of wires that I shaped myself, and the third one is made of foam boards that I cut and assembled myself as well 💕 and I included a picture of my final painting project! it’s a triptych and I believe the size was like 18 x 24 for each one? If you click on the picture, it should be better quality!
omg I love green tea ice cream too !!!!! 🍵🍦 I like going to somi somi for their matcha and milk swirl ice cream with red bean taiyaki 💚 I only had thai milk tea ice cream once, but it was phenomenal 🤩 I wish they sold it near me too !! milk and biscoff :o I’ve never tried that flavor! I’ll have to see if it’s sold around here :’) green tea is my favorite, but I also really like everything but the... from Ben and Jerry’s !! 💛 also alcoholic ice cream.... like there’s this one kind where it was a breakfast esque type with vanilla, corn flakes, and bourbon, and it was delicious 😋
omg what 😭😭 you’re basically going to school year round with no break bahsjdjdjdkd when I was in uni, i had a month off for winter break (usually something like dec 9 - jan 9) and then mid june to mid September off, so around three months of summer vacation? Your school schedule sounds absolutely brutal 💀💀
and omg of course !!! Thank you for letting me be a part of the journey 🥺💗 bdjdjddj pregnancy omg that’s such an interesting way of seeing it :o sending you all my love and support for a successful delivery of your thesis baby 🥰🥰 oh yeah, it’s definitely been a struggle to separate everything, especially when the lines between home and workspace blur with online school or working from home. And oh my god ???? Are you okay ?? Did you go see a doctor or take any medication? I hope you’re feeling better now !! Please take care of yourself 😭
ah, I got my job through my internship, so I’m not sure how helpful I will be 😅 but during the process of interviewing for internships, there were several rounds for each company that range from a group interview, a one on one interview, video interview where they give you random questions that you have to answer on the spot (some of mine were discuss the stock market, give a sales pitch on something you’re interested in, etc), a test, etc. I think it’s different depending on the job you’re going for, but that’s what I had to do in the business field! It’s important to study and prep for all of this!! It’s like taking an verbal exam for one of your classes. And also make sure to study the company’s website and familiarize yourself with what they do/sell.
My one piece of overall advice would be about interviews! Interviews are important in which the person interviewing you is seeing if you’ll be a good fit with the company, not in terms of skill, but personality. They already know you’re qualified and have good skills - that’s how you got the interview. With the interview, they’re essentially trying to see how personable you are and if you will work well with their team. Some people are so intent on proving their skills that they kinda just rattle off all their achievements and whatnot, and it’s like... the interviewer already knows this, it’s all on the resume they reviewed when they decided to give the interview offer. Be friendly, open, maybe make a little small talk at the beginning (“hey, how are you? any weekend plans / how was your weekend?” This is what I did for all my business interviews, and I got an offer back from every one 🤧💗), make appropriate jokes / be a little funny, just show that you’d be a fun person to have in the office whom people will want on their team, but that you will also be dedicated to the job and work hard 💘
And thank you so much, honey bee!!! 💞 I hope you’re doing well and having a good week , and please take care as well 🌷🌷

Feelin’ Lava-ly (Maxie - Team Magma)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I wanted Maxie’s blend to be spicy, but also earthy. Since I used Cassia Cinnamon as the key ingredient in Martian to a Different Drum (my blend for Commander Mars of Team Galactic), I vowed I wasn’t going to use it. It was much too sweet for Team Magma’s boss, anyway!
I selected Myrrh (a sap-like tree resin with an amber-like smell) as my main oil for the blend. Frankincense (its more famous cousin) blends with virtually everything. Myrrh’s a bit more peppery and doesn’t play as nicely with as many smells.
Originally, I wanted to use Ginger (for its warm, earthy smell) in the blend, but opted instead to use one of its lesser known cousins: Finger Root. Finger Root smells a bit earthier and paired nicely with the Myrrh.
By this point, the blend smelled bitter and like a bunch of dried roots. I needed to give it a bit more spice and heat to round it out! I used about 10 drops of Red Thyme to add some “flavor” to the blend, and then proceeded to christen the rest of the blend with CO2 supercritical Turmeric.
(And if you don’t know what CO2 Supercritical means, that’s okay. It’s just a process that makes a stronger, purer, more intense oil with a longer shelf life).
The Myrrh and Turmeric are what you smell predominantly in the blend. Once it hits the water, it’s a gorgeous rich crimson. Imagine you’re bathing in a hot tub of lava, or the blood of your Team Aqua enemies.
Now it’s time to talk about the pros and cons of these oils from a safety perspective…
Aromatherapy isn’t just about pretty smells and scented bath water. Essential oils are in such a high concentration that even absorbing them through your skin can leave you with the therapeutic (and potentially toxic) benefits.
If you are allergic to a plant, you are 100% without question going to be super allergic to the essential oil.
There’s also such a thing as contraindications: where some oils may affect you in weird ways if you have a certain medical condition or take certain medications.
The information below is for your safety if you want to attempt to make this blend at home (as a bath bomb, a body spray, or even scented bath salts). And do be sure to wear gloves. Some of these oils have recommended dilution rates as small as 0.4%. You don’t want that to slide on bare skin!
Myrrh Essential Oil (40% of Synergy)
Myrrh (like Elemi and Frankincense) is a resin that comes out of cuts in the bark of Commiphora trees. It’s primarily used to make medicine and is one of the most ancient (and most purchased) essential oils on the planet.
For Christians, the name may sound familiar. Myrrh was one of the three gifts provided to the baby Jesus by the Three Kings. It was a symbolic gift, seeing as myrrh was used (at the time) for embalming purposes. Pros: Myrrh is used to treat stomach problems (indigestion, ulcers), respiratory problems (cough, asthma, colds), pain problems (arthritis), cancer, leprosy, spasms, and even syphilis. You can also use it as a stimulant and to increase menstrual flow (making it perfect for cramps and endometriosis).
With a carrier oil, myrrh can be applied to sores, wounds, boils, and abrasions. It cuts down on inflammation. It’s one of my all-time favorites for my occasional fibromyalgia flares. Myrrh digs in deep and melts the aches and pains away!
Cons: Myrrh has several potential health warnings, so please read this section with care.
Some people experience nausea when exposed to myrrh. If ingested (not that you should EVER take essential oils internally without your doctor’s recommendation), myrrh can cause diarrhea.
Although small doses are considered safe for the general public, excessive use and abuse of the oil could result in heart and kidney complications.
If you are pregnant or breast-feeding, avoid using Myrrh Essential Oil until your baby is safely weaned. Myrrh stimulates menstrual flow and may cause a miscarriage. Breast-feeding parents should avoid myrrh, since it’s not a baby-safe oil.
If you are diabetic or taking diabetic medication, you need to understand that Myrrh Essential Oil might lower your blood sugar. Please monitor your blood sugar carefully if you’re using this oil.
If you have heart problems, large amounts of myrrh may impact your heart rate (and not in a good way). Get your healthcare provider’s advice before using this essential oil.
If you plan to have surgery in the next 2 weeks, avoid using Myrrh Essential Oil. Myrrh might interfere with blood glucose control during and after surgery.
If you have a uterine bleeding condition, exercise caution when using Myrrh Essential Oil, as it may worsen your condition.
Lastly, Warfarin (Coumadin) interacts with Myrrh. This drug is used to slow blood clotting. Using Myrrh Essential Oil on the regular might decrease how well warfarin (Coumadin) works and could increase the chance of blood clotting.
Turmeric Essential Oil (25% of Synergy)
If you aren’t familiar with Turmeric, you may be familiar with its smell: as it is the key ingredient in curry and many Indian cuisines. It has a spicy, savory, and flavorful aroma that makes you think of hot foods.
Pros:
Turmeric has wonderful pain relief properties! People can use it for joint pain, arthritis, abdominal pain, fibromyalgia, headaches, and menstrual cramps. I’ll add it to my lotion on cramping days, but I’ve been holding off on it lately because I’m trying to lose a little weight and Turmeric makes me hungry.
Relieve digestive upset! It’s great for constipation, diarrhea, intestinal gas, nausea, and loss of appetite. If you’re feeling a little queasy, Turmeric might be your new best friend.
Reduce inflammation! Bloat, retained water, bladder inflammation—Turmeric is here to help you!
Cons:
If you suffer from gallbladder problems, you may want to avoid using Turmeric essential oil, as it may worsen your condition.
Curcurmin (a chemical inside Turmeric) may lower your blood sugar. If you are diabetic, you may want to exercise caution when using this essential oil for prolonged periods. Be sure your blood sugar looks good to go before you use the bath bomb.
Turmeric essential oil may slow blood clotting. If you are taking blood thinners, this blend may not be for you. Also, if you are going to have surgery in the next couple of weeks or just had surgery, don’t use this oil.
Although Turmeric essential oil is considered generally safe, some people have complained about diarrhea when exposed to large quantities. This bath bomb shouldn’t do that to you.
If you have any estrogen or hormone-related conditions (such as breast cancer), don’t use this oil.
Finger Root Essential Oil (20% of Synergy)
Finger Root is a cousin to Ginger and has a slightly earthier smell. It’s also more camphorous than Ginger, as well as has a mildly floral after-scent.
Pros:
Like Ginger, Finger Root works wonders for nausea and digestive upset. If you’re feeling a little queasy and ginger doesn’t do the trick, maybe consider giving finger root a try!
Finger Root is a calming aroma, and works well for meditation, stress relief, and anger management.
Finger Root has decongestant properties and may be able to help you if you’ve got a stuffy nose, any type of nasal drip, or a sinus-related headache.
Finger Root works wonders for your hair and scalp, too. If you suffer from dry winter skin or a flaky scalp, consider putting a drop or two of this essential oil into your shampoo or conditioner!
Cons:
Due to its elevated camphor content, this is not a cat-safe essential oil.
Finger Root may increase your insulin levels, so monitor your blood sugar carefully if you are diabetic or on diabetes-related medications.
Very high dosages of Finger Root may worsen some heart conditions, but bathing in a bath powder shouldn’t be enough to trigger this kind of reaction.
Prolonged usage of Finger Root may increase your risk of bleeding.
A small percentage of the population have reported a dermal sensitivity to Finger Root, but it is generally considered to be universally safe.
Red Thyme Essential Oil (15% of Synergy)
Red Thyme has an unforgettable, warm, herbal smell reminiscent of a dry rub or your first real scents of autumn air. It conjures up thoughts of walking through a forest full of dead, dry leaves on the first cold evening of the season.
Pros:
The medical benefits of Thyme have been known to the Mediterranean part of the world for thousands of years. It is also a commonly prescribed herb in Ayurvedic Medicine.
Alleviate several illnesses! Red Thyme can be used to relieve and reduce the impact of chronic ailments such as gout, chronic fatigue syndrome, menstrual and menopausal problems, and athlete’s foot. It’s also a lovely hangover cure.
It has antidepressant properties! Red Thyme has an anti-anxiety component to its chemical makeup. When diffused or applied with a carrier oil, it can reduce the impact of depression, strengthen cognition, and calm jittery nerves.
It’s an asthma-safe oil and works wonders on respiratory problems! Got a nasty autumn cough you can’t shake? What about the early signs of a sore throat? Red Thyme may be able to help you. It certainly does for me!
Improve your skin! Red Thyme can reduce the amount of sebum your pores extract, meaning it can reduce your chances for acne or sebaceous cysts. It can clear up oily skin, as well as speed up the healing process for scars. As for aged skin, Red Thyme is a wonderful toner.
Reduce hair loss! Red Thyme, when added to shampoos and other hair products, can reduce or even prevent hair loss for some people.
It can be used to improve your oral health! Like Peppermint, Spearmint, Eucalyptus, Rosemary, Lemon, and Wintergreen, Red Thyme Essential Oil can be added to a mouthwash or oral rinse to fix bad breath and improve the health of your gums.
Bugs HATE Red Thyme, so keep the creepy-crawlies at bay! Mosquitoes, lice, moths, ticks, and fleas in particular hate Red Thyme. That said, I really wish roaches were on that list. Your best oil for that is still Peppermint.
Cons
The good news is that there are very few side effects to Red Thyme Essential Oil. It is generally safe for most people to use, but it’s never a bad idea to first consult your physician before adding essential oils to your daily health routine.
This is not a cat-friendly oil. In fact, Red Thyme is listed in several places as one of the worst things you can diffuse around your cat. As much as I love this essential oil, I always lock Gaius out of the room if I choose to diffuse this one.
Some people are allergic to thyme. It’s actually not that uncommon. If you are allergic to other plants in the Lamiaceae family (Basil, Sage, Rosemary, Lavender, etc.), you may have a sensitivity to Red Thyme Essential Oil. Allergies may surface as gastrointestinal issues (fussy stomach, diarrhea, nausea, or vomiting) if ingested.
If you have sensitive skin, do not apply Red Thyme neat to your skin. While Red Thyme is generally safe, some people have experienced inflammation, hives, rashes, itchiness, and redness when the oil is applied to the skin without being properly diluted with a carrier oil. The good news is that Thyme Machine contains fractionated coconut oil as a carrier. If that doesn’t dilute the Thyme enough, the bath water will.
Red Thyme is an emmenagogue and should NOT be used by pregnant women. I use Red Thyme for a number of reasons. One of them is to regulate my period, as it’s started to come a bit more slowly since I started dieting in April (every 5 weeks instead of every 4). Red Thyme has emmenagogue properties, which means that it stimulates menstruation. Menstruation is something you do not want when you’re pregnant, as it could potentially be dangerous for the fetus or trigger premature labor or a miscarriage.
Exercise caution if you have hypertension. Red Thyme can be used to increase circulation, meaning your blood pressure may rise while using this oil. If you are already dealing with hypertension or experience palpitations on the regular, Red Thyme Essential Oil might not play nicely with you.
Exercise caution if you have hyperthyroidism. Red Thyme may stimulate the thyroid gland for some people.

Whether you are a guy or a lady, it is essential to enjoy for any type of unusual changes in your body as well as energy degrees in order to find any kind of indicators of cancer beforehand. The sooner you observe there's a trouble, the faster you could start to take the actions essential to promote recovery within your body.
Of course, preferably you must adhere to an anti-cancer lifestyle even prior to you observe any kind of symptoms, as prevention is the ideal course when it comes to most chronic conditions. It is not uncommon for 10 or even more years to pass in between direct exposure to a cancer-causing agent (cigarette, chemicals, radiation, mobile phone, poor nourishment, etc.) and also detectable cancer.
So during this time you have an opportunity to modify the development of the disease.
Cancer is actually a team of illness identified by unrestrained development and spread of unusual cells. The "treatment" depends on regulating this unusual growth and also quiting the spread.
Your body has an amazing ability to do simply that - to heal - as well as that ability is sustained largely by your way of life. If you eat well, exercise, get sufficient sleep and sunlight direct exposure and also address your emotional stress, your body must have the ability to keep a healthy balance.
The trouble with cancer typically exists not just with overlooking these wellness concepts but also with the intrusive as well as highly unsafe treatments that traditional medicine depends on to treat it - surgical treatment, radiation treatment and also radiation.
This might surprise you to listen to, however a current spots study located some cancers cells, even invasive cancers cells, may go away without treatment, and it might occur often compared to anybody thought.
On the contrary, many experts currently say cancer patients are most likely to pass away from cancer cells treatments like chemotherapy compared to the cancer itself.
The worrying rates of cancer cells fatalities throughout the globe - cancer cells has a mortality rate of 90 percent, according to Italian oncologist Dr. Tullio Simoncini - talk quantities about the performance, or lack thereof, of these treatments, yet they are still considered the gold standard of cancer cells care.
Cancer Fees Continue to Surge in 2009
Nearly 1.5 million new cancer cases are anticipated to be detected in the United States in 2009, not consisting of the over 1 million instances of basal and also squamous cell skin cancers cells that are additionally anticipated to be identified this year, according to American Cancer cells Culture data.
In all, even more than 1,500 individuals will pass away from cancer cells each day, accounting for virtually one from every 4 U.S. deaths.
The most current price quotes show that by 2030, over 26 million individuals a year might be diagnosed with cancer, with 17 million people passing away from it.
Many of these cancer situations as well as fatalities can be prevented, however.
Even the American Cancer Society mentions that regarding one-third of the even more than 562,000 cancer cells deaths anticipated to occur in 2009 will be associated to obese or excessive weight, physical lack of exercise and also inadequate nourishment. Another 169,000 will be triggered by cigarette use.
There is another extensively neglected reason for cancer fatalities, one that can quickly be altered also, which is a lack of vitamin D from sunlight exposure.
We currently know that well in unwanted of half of cancer cells instances would simply vanish if vitamin D degrees were optimized.
If You Suspect You Have Cancer cells, What Ought to You Do?
First and leading I would certainly recommend you look for the support of a knowledgeable all-natural healthcare expert. From there the selection is a highly personal decision yet one I would certainly prompt you to keep an open mind on.
Many individuals look to conventional cancer therapies like chemotherapy due to the fact that they believe they are the ONLY alternative. Well, there are other more secure alternatives to think about, consisting of one that you may have in your cooking area pantry: baking soda.
Sodium bicarbonate provides an all-natural form of chemotherapy in a manner that successfully eliminates cancer cells - without the adverse effects and also costs of basic radiation treatment treatments. The only issue with the treatment, according to Dr. Mark Sircus, is that it's as well low-cost. Since nobody is visiting make cash from it, no person will advertise it.
Dr. Simoncini's fairly incredible experience has revealed that 99 percent of bust as well as bladder cancers cells could recover in just six days, entirely without the usage of surgery, chemo or radiation, making use of simply a regional seepage device (such as a catheter) to supply the sodium bicarbonate directly to the infected website in your breast tissue or bladder.
You could enjoy actual prior to and also after footage of the therapy working in this video.
Another such approach is Dr. Hamer's German New Medicine (GNM), which runs under the premise that every disease, consisting of cancer, originates from an unexpected shock encounter, which all condition could be cured by fixing these underlying psychological traumas.
Dr. Hamer has actually invested time in jail for rejecting to disavow his clinical findings and quit treating his individuals with his unorthodox techniques, as well as is presently living in expatriation, looking for asylum from persecution.
Make Sure Your Vitamin D Degrees remain in the Optimum Range
It is additionally extremely important for cancer cells patients to optimize their vitamin D degrees right into a high range, as well as you can find out the right degrees by watching my one-hour vitamin D lecture.
Calcitriol, the most powerful steroid hormonal agent in your body, is created in large amounts in your tissues when you have adequate amounts of vitamin D. Nonetheless, the majority of cancer individuals are vitamin D deficient.
Calcitrol - the turned on form of vitamin D - possesses been shown to secure against cancer by causing cell distinction and regulating cell proliferation.
People with a low vitamin D level are less able making turned on vitamin D in a quantity enough to exert the controls over cell spreading that are should lower cancer.
Not only is this strategy practically with no adverse effects, however the therapy is essentially free.
So, once more, if you have or believe you have cancer please watch my free vitamin D lecture currently to locate out ways to optimize your degrees to the healing range.
12 Tips to Reduce Your Danger of Cancer cells Now
As I said earlier, living an anti-cancer lifestyle currently will assist your body to remain healthy and balanced and also in equilibrium, and also avoid developing cancer in the first area. Here are the leading ideas I advise to begin living your much healthier way of life now:
1. Normalize your vitamin D levels by getting a lot of sunlight exposure and think about cautious supplements when this is not feasible. If you take oral vitamin D and have a cancer cells, it would certainly be really sensible to monitor your vitamin D blood levels regularly.
2. Lower or remove your refined food, sugar and grain carb intake. Yes, this is even real for whole unrefined organic grains, as they have the tendency to quickly damage down as well as drive your insulin as well as leptin levels up, which is the last thing you should have occurring if you are seeking to solve or protect against cancer.
3. Control your fasting insulin as well as leptin levels. This is completion result, and could be conveniently checked with using simple as well as reasonably inexpensive blood tests.
4. Normalize your proportion of omega-3 to omega-6 fats by taking a premium animal-based omega-3 fat like krill oil as well as decreasing your intake of the majority of refined vegetable oils.
5. Get regular workout. One of the main reasons exercise their jobs is that it drives your insulin degrees down. Managing insulin levels is one of one of the most powerful means to decrease your cancer cells risks.
6. Get regular, good sleep.
7. Eat according to your nutritional kind. The powerful anti-cancer impacts of this concept are really much underappreciated. When we treat cancer clients in our clinic this is one of the most powerful anti-cancer strategies we have.
8. Decrease your direct exposure to ecological toxic substances like chemicals, household chemical cleaners, synthetic air fresheners and air pollution.
9. Limitation your direct exposure and offer protection for yourself from radiation generated by cellular phone, cell phone towers, base stations as well as WiFi stations.
10. Stay clear of frying or charbroiling your food. Boil, poach or heavy steam your foods instead.
11. Have a device to permanently reprogram the neurological short-circuiting that could turn on cancer genes. Even the CDC states that 85 percent of illness is frommed emotions. It is likely that this variable might be much more important than all the other physical ones provided right here, so see to it this is dealt with. One of the very best strategies and also my certain preferred tool is the Meridian Tapping Technique.
12. Consume at the very least one-third of your food raw. Personally my goal is 85% raw and also I am typically able to accomplish that.
You won't read or listen to much about these cancer-preventive strategies somewhere else since they have not been officially 'verified' by conventional researchers. However, were you mindful that 85 percent of therapies currently recommended by conventional medication must never been officially verified either?
Now that's something to think about.
With little initiative on your part, these fairly straightforward risk decrease techniques can aid you to practically eliminate your cancer cells threat, as well as substantially enhance your chances of recovering from cancer cells if you currently have it. Go ahead and also provide them a try, you have absolutely nothing to shed as well as possibly every little thing, including your life, to gain.

Can Fennel and Ginger Ease Menstrual Cramps?
youtube
By Dr. Mercola
Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) describes a collection of symptoms known to occur a few days prior to a woman's monthly menstrual cycle. Although symptoms vary widely in both severity and type, a few of the most common ones include acne, bloating, cramping, headaches, irritability, pain, sleep issues and swollen or tender breasts. Hormone fluctuations occurring during your menstrual cycle are thought to be the primary cause of PMS, while chemical changes in your brain may also play a role.
In addition, insufficient levels of certain vitamins and minerals have been associated with PMS, while the foods you eat and habits you keep also can intensify your symptoms. If you routinely reach for pain-relieving medications to counteract the discomfort associated with “that time of the month,” you may want to consider fennel and ginger — two herbs known to ease cramping. Also, you may want to try using the Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT).
Fennel and Ginger: Two Herbs That May Help Soothe Your PMS Symptoms
Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare) is a flowering plant species in the carrot family indigenous to the Mediterranean that has been naturalized in other parts of the world. This fragrant, flavorful herb has many culinary and medicinal uses, including the treatment of menstrual cramps and other aspects of PMS. About fennel, one scholarly source says:1
“[F]ennel is a well-known and important medicinal and aromatic plant widely used as carminative, digestive, galactogogue and diuretic and in treating respiratory and gastrointestinal disorders. Phenols, phenolic glycosides and volatile aroma compounds such as trans-anethole, estragole and fenchone have been reported as the major phytoconstituents of this species.
Different pharmacological experiments … have convincingly demonstrated the ability of fennel to exhibit antifungal, antibacterial, antioxidant, antithrombotic and hepatoprotective activities, lending support to the rationale behind several of its therapeutic uses.”
Ginger (Zingiber officinale), a cousin of cardamom and turmeric, is believed to have originated as ground flora in tropical lowlands across Southeast Asia. The roots of this prolific flowering plant are widely used in folk medicine, and ginger has also been identified as an herbal anti-inflammatory useful in the treatment of PMS. With respect to ginger, the International Journal of Preventative Medicine stated:2
“[T]he rhizome of ginger has been used in traditional herbal medicine. The health-promoting perspective of ginger is attributed to its rich phytochemistry. Ginger has potential for treating a number of ailments including degenerative disorders, digestive disorders, cardiovascular disorders, vomiting, diabetes mellitus and cancer. It also has anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative properties ... Furthermore, it has antimicrobial potential as well, which can help in treating infectious diseases.”
Fennel Shown To Be as Effective as NSAIDs for Treating Painful Menstrual Cramps
A 2013 Iranian study3 took a closer look at the usefulness of fennel as a remedy for painful menstrual cramps. The study authors noted cramps as a common complaint for women and girls, suggesting more than 70 percent of Iranian women and nearly 75 percent of teenage girls suffer from painful menstruation.
While the use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or oral contraceptive pills — both of which work by reducing myometrial activity — are common treatments, these are not always acceptable long-term therapies due to the potential side effects.
About fennel as a potential remedy for cramps, the study authors suggest fennel contains “antispasmodic and anethol agents that may be helpful for the management of primary dysmenorrhea,”4 which is defined as cramping pain in the lower abdomen that occurs just before or during menstruation. Their research involved 60 college students, ages 18 to 25 years, suffering from cramps.
The participants were divided into two groups and followed for two cycles. Medication was administered at the onset of pain, with the study group receiving 25 drops of a 2 percent fennel-containing solution every six hours. If pain was not reduced within two hours, the study group also received 250 milligrams (mg) of mefenamic acid, an NSAID, in capsule form. The control group received only 250 mg of mefenamic acid, also in capsule form, every six hours, as needed.
After comparing the two groups, the researchers asserted, “The present study showed the efficacy of fennel drops in pain relief for primary dysmenorrhea is comparable to the efficacy of common NSAIDs such as mefenamic acid capsules.”5 An earlier study6 involving 110 high school girls, mean age 13 years, again found fennel to be as effective as mefenamic acid with respect to addressing pain relief associated with primary dysmenorrhea. The study authors noted:7
Eighty percent of girls administered fennel and 73 percent of those receiving mefenamic acid experienced complete pain relief or a decrease in pain
Eighty percent of the girls in the fennel group and 62 percent of those in the mefenamic acid group no longer needed to rest due to PMS-related discomfort
Ginger Also Shown To Be Effective for Menstrual Discomfort

In terms of its usefulness for relieving menstrual cramping, studies focusing on ginger highlight its effectiveness at doses of just 250 mg when taken during the first few days of your period.8 One such study, published in Phytotherapy Research9 in 2015, sought to evaluate the usefulness of ginger on heavy menstrual bleeding in high school girls.
Ninety-two young women who experienced heavy bleeding during their menstrual cycle were evaluated for six consecutive menses, with one group receiving ginger and the other placebo capsules. The study authors said:10
“The decrease of blood loss in the ginger-receiving group was significantly more remarkable than that of participants receiving placebo. Considering the significance of appropriate and timely treatment … ginger may be considered as an effective therapeutic option for heavy menstrual bleeding.”
Another 2015 study11 involving a systematic review and meta-analysis of seven randomized clinical trials (RCTs) validated the use of ginger for the treatment of primary dysmenorrhea. About their findings, the researchers stated:
“Four of the RCTs compared the therapeutic efficacy of ginger with a placebo during the first three to four days of the menstrual cycle and were included in the meta-analysis. The meta-analysis of these data showed a significant effect of ginger in reducing pain visual analogue scores in subjects having primary dysmenorrhea.
Collectively these RCTs provide suggestive evidence for the effectiveness of 750 to 2000 mg of ginger powder during the first three to four days of menstrual cycle for primary dysmenorrhea.”
Essential Oils Can Also Help Soothe PMS
Here are a few recipes for essential oil blends designed to promote a sense of well-being around your monthly menstrual cycle. You can use them in a bath or as a massage oil:12,13,14
PMS Bath Blend: Mix 5 drops of clary sage, 2 to 3 drops of chamomile, 2 drops of geranium and 2 to 3 drops of lavender essential oil with 1 tablespoon of jojoba oil and a handful of Epsom salts and add to warm bathwater
PMS Hormonal Balance Blend: Mix 2 drops of clary sage, 1 drop of geranium and 1 drop of ylang ylang essential oil into 1 tablespoon of a carrier oil like coconut or jojoba oil and apply to your abdomen or low back as needed
Menstrual Massage Blend: Mix 5 drops of lavender, 5 drops of cypress, 10 drops of peppermint and 10 drops of nutmeg essential oil into 1 tablespoon of carrier oil and apply to your abdomen or low back as desired
You can create another menstrual massage blend by combining 3 drops of clary sage, 3 drops of juniper and 3 drops of chamomile into 1 tablespoon of a carrier oil and gently massaging this blend clockwise around your belly. When using essential oils, always be sure to:
Perform a patch test on a small area of your skin prior to using essential oils for a bath, massage or other application
Introduce only one essential oil at a time until you know which ones your body can handle, otherwise, if you have a negative reaction, it will be difficult to determine which oil caused it
Avoid any oils derived from or closely related to plants to which you have a known allergy
EFT Is a Useful Tool for Handling PMS and More
youtube
In the video above, EFT expert Julie Schiffman demonstrates how to use this technique to address PMS. According to Schiffman, about 20 percent of women are affected by PMS in a debilitating way — meaning their symptoms and discomfort are so intense it prevents them from going to work or school or even being able to get out of bed sometimes. Fortunately, EFT works quickly to address PMS-related issues, says Schiffman, and its effects can often be permanent. She adds:
“There really are a lot of natural ways to help beat these symptoms and relieve PMS pain and discomfort. However, so many people go to the quick and easy fix of taking muscle relaxers, ibuprofen or aspirin. While these can be very helpful in the moment, a few hours later you might need to take them again. And these medications may not be right for everyone. I’ve seen time and again that tapping can help you feel better, so I encourage you to use EFT for PMS.”
If you’re not familiar with EFT, it is a painless psychological acupressure technique I highly recommend to help optimize your emotional health. While often overlooked, your emotional health is connected to and has a great deal of influence over your physical health and well-being, even as it relates to experiencing healthy menstruation and managing PMS. The emotional associations to PMS make sense when you consider the deeply personal nature of your menstruation and how your monthly cycle impacts you as a woman.
EFT works because it is based on the same energy meridians used in acupuncture to treat physical and emotional ailments. Rather than inserting needles into specific points along your body’s meridians, you use your fingertips to simply tap over some of those areas. As you tap, you’ll be thinking about and talking through a specific problem, which in this case is PMS.
As you tap, you’ll voice positive affirmations. The combination of tapping on your energy meridians and voicing positive affirmation works to clear emotional blocks, thereby restoring and balancing the connection between your mind and body. Because the results are quick and painless, EFT is sure to become one of your “go-to” healing tools.

Even More Options to Help You Tackle PMS Symptoms
In the event none of the natural remedies mentioned so far have been effective in helping you tackle your PMS symptoms, you may find a suitable treatment among the additional options noted below.
Acupuncture: A 2014 systematic literature review of 19 studies found acupuncture and herbal medicine treatments for PMS and premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) to significantly improve symptoms from baseline.
The study authors said, “In both acupuncture and herbal medical interventions, there have been no serious adverse events reported, proving the safety … while most of the interventions provided over 50 percent relief of symptoms associated with PMS/PMDD.”15
Aromatherapy: Lavender aromatherapy has been shown to alleviate premenstrual emotional symptoms, which is partly attributable to improvement in your parasympathetic nervous system activity.16
Dietary and lifestyle changes: Changes to your diet and lifestyle can help relieve cramping and other PMS symptoms. Along these lines you may want to:
Avoid alcohol, carbonated drinks, caffeine and smoking
Ensure you're getting enough animal-based omega-3 fats, calcium, magnesium, manganese and vitamins A, B6 and E, as well as vitamin D
Reduce your sugar intake
Stay away from smoked cheeses, fish and meat because they can increase your fluid retention
Diindolylmethane (DIM): DIM is a natural phytochemical found in cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, Brussel sprouts, cabbage and cauliflower. It has unique properties allowing it to modify the metabolism of estrogen, promoting optimal estrogen balance and supporting healthy progesterone and testosterone production.
As such, increased consumption of DIM-containing foods may benefit conditions like PMS, which are associated with estrogen-progesterone imbalance.
Evening Primrose Oil: Evening primrose oil not only contains the essential fatty acid gamma linolenic acid (GLA), which is useful for treating pain, but also helps restore the abnormal hormone physiology that may be contributing to some of your PMS symptoms.
Exercise: Exercise can help relieve menstrual cramps, perhaps because it raises your level of endorphins — chemicals in your brain associated with pain relief.
Heat: Applying a hot water bottle to your lower abdominal area or soaking in a warm bath (using one of the essential oil blends mentioned above) may provide temporary relief of menstrual pain.
Finally, you may find comfort for PMS symptoms in a cup of fennel tea or ginger tea. The good news about tea is you can drink it several times throughout the day and, assuming you are not sensitive to either of these herbs, it’s unlikely you will suffer any unpleasant side effects. Given the many natural options available, it’s time to get on with a better quality of life by making painful PMS symptoms a thing of the past.
