I'VE never heard of such a silly thing before. I would like to have the "Answerers" to supply some COMMON SENSE REASONS why bananas help cramps!!! I want to read something about what the heck is in bananas that could POSSIBLY help cramps. In the meantime, let me explain why you have cramps in the 1st place!
Throughout your monthly cycle, your body prepares for a FERTILIZED EGG by lining your uterus with nutritious, life-supporting blood. But, when your egg hasn't been fertilized, your body must slough off the no-longer needed blood that has lined your uterine wall so what happens is that your abdominal muscles contract and release to expel this uterine wall blood. NOW, the BEST REMEDY FOR THIS IS ONLY ONE THING - ASPIRIN; and I'll ALSO tell you why.
2 reasons:
1. Aspirin, of course, is a PAIN killer which helps PAINFUL CRAMPS!!
2. Aspirin ALSO THINS THE BODY'S BLOOD therefore, it's EASIER for the body's muscles to expel the unneeded and NOW MUCH THINNED blood and THINNER BLOOD MOVES EASIER WHICH EASES THE WORK ON THE ABDOMINAL MUSCLES. If aspirin hurts your stomach, TAKE ENTERIC-COATED ASPIRIN! I GUARANTEE that those won't bother your stomach - GUARANTEE IT!

You can also use the banana peel to clean up the vaginal discharge afterwards.
