The hair washing thing is NOT TRUE.

Cramps:
from: http://womenshealth.about.com/cs/crampsmenstrual/ht/menstrualcramps.htm
"OTC pain relievers such as ibuprofen or naproxen used around the clock at the first sign of your period helps to reduce the severity of cramps in many women by inhibiting the release of prostaglandins.
Regular exercise such as walking helps to prevent or at least reduce the severity of menstrual cramps for some women.
Oral contraceptives may effectively reduce or eliminate menstrual cramps for some women; however you should consider the side effects of oral contraceptives before using them to prevent cramps.
Zinc, calcium, and B vitamins obtained in food and supplements have been found to reduce cramps, bloating and other symptoms.
Herbal remedies such as Viburnum prunifolium, Scutellaria spp., and Cimicifuga raemosa have an antispasmodic effect that may reduce some menstrual cramps.
A warm bath filled with aromatherapy or a heating pad on your lower abdomen and back is often helpful for relieving menstrual cramping.
Tips:
Always take painkillers with food to prevent stomach discomfort.
If you don't have a heating pad, you can make one by filling a sock (a men's tube sock works best) with rice and heating it in a microwave over for a few minutes.
Talk to your physician if these tips do not help, there may be an underlying cause. Severe sudden cramps, vomiting, or fever may be a sign of a medical emergency, contact your physician immediately."

As a long way as I realize, your boobs do not get higher simply seeing that you could have gotten your interval...completely. They will seem and consider just a little higher for that week or so regardless that, seeing that your frame sort of bloats up while you get your interval (so experience that! =] ) Also, I'm quite optimistic that you do not attain weight any quicker than you traditionally could. You do consider bloated and fatter (boo!) seeing that you hold water, however you are now not gaining any truly weight and any bloating you consider will disappear in a couple of days or via the tip of your interval. Any weight attain could typically be seeing that you are stuffing your face for the duration of PMS! =) (no less than i do know i do.)

wash away hunny. it does no harm. there would be ALOT of smelly greasy heads of hair if women didnt wash it while on their period. try taking motrin instead of the tylenol. sit in a warm bath, or warm shower. or a heating pad on your belly area.
but the hair washing is completely safe.
