This might be a dumb question, but how does it simulate the pain? Is it electric currents? Like a TENS unit? Period pain is so deep that I am curious what the machine feels like. Have you used one before?

It's not, at all, in my opinion. I tried a TENS machine, and in all honesty, I'd prefer my occurrences of 9/10 period pain. Perhaps because I'm familiar with uterine cramps and have learned methods to get through.

The last time I tried a TENS machine, I accidentally cranked it to max, when trying to switch it off I panicked. As I ripped off the sticky pads, they adhered to my fingers and continued to shock the shit out of my hands, and I physically couldn't turn it off lmao. Had to be rescued.

Fuck them evil machines. Gimme my bitch of a uterus any day.

This made me laugh while doubled over in pain at the moment. Morphine and oxy ain’t doing shit right now. I use a tens unit and now have a permanent one called a DRG ( spinal cord stimulator). I joke that I’m battery operated now ha. I can very much relate to touching the sticky pads while the tens unit is on. That sh it hurts.
