How to study when you're on your period??

When I'm on my period I get the worst brain fog ever - I just can't concentrate at all. Combined with cramps and a mix of stress and miserable hormones I am an absolute mess and can't get anything done. I have an exam tomorrow and the day after that, I'm relatively prepared but I NEED to get more studying in. Any tips to concentrate?

This all feels so unfair. I feel like people really don't get how mentally debilitating it can be when during your period. People without them genuinely have such an advantage.
I'm so sorry :nah: :hugs:

Do painkillers help? If it's cramps, there was something advertised which you put on your tummy where the cramps are and they somehow no longer hurt so much. But if there's not time to get one, certain music could help.
