Do you have headache? Does she have menstrual cramps? Get into a kissing session and see how much better the two of you feel. You might be wondering how a

kiss can possibly cure either problem, but there is a science breakdown to it all. When you kiss, it helps to dilate your blood vessels. When that happens, blood is

able to flow throughout your body easier and that can decrease the level of pain that you feel; especially the kind that’s associated with headaches and cramping.
