I get horrible period pain, and this is sooo good, really expensive though, it think it was $7? And they only include 2 so they aren't very cheap but great when on the run or need quick pain relief, and heats up fast, doesn't get too hot and nice when you are really sore!

Libra Hotties Heat Patches Review
LIBRA Hotties Heat Patches are like a hot water bottle on-the go!
These self-adhesive patches offer portable heat therapy for women who experience cramping. Apply a patch directly onto sore tummies, backs or anywhere else where heat therapy is used.
Each Libra Hottie offers gradual warmth for over 5 hours and once you're feeling better, just throw away the used patch. It may take up to an hour for each heat patch to reach its maximum temperature of 50 degrees.
So stick on a Libra Hottie whenever you to need take the edge off period pain!

Tips: Make sure you aren't too rough with it, because it would tear and its not nice when it does tear (experienced myself) I think they should make them a bit sturdier, but overall great :)
I really like the Heat patches! I have endo and I get really bad pains every time i get a period. I love that I can wear it out of the house.because as a busy mum staying at home when its that time of the month just to have my hottie just can't be done. although they could make them a little hotter
Tips: keep up with the panadol every 4 hrs
I had a very sore neck for a couple of days caused by stress. I put it on at 6.00pm and it my neck was feeling a lot better by the time I went to bed. It was so warm! I will defiantly be using it again. It didn't stick to well to the back of my neck, so I used a scarf to hold it there.
I used these when i was in labour instead of a wheat bag as i didnt have to hold them in place but gave me the comfort i needed. they were amazing they would be fantastic for period pain too and lots of other uses
Good for lower back pain and really warm and comforting in winter, but I feel like I've seen similar products in the past for cheaper. I hate that it looks like your sanitary pad has ridden up your back I think they should change the fabric.
Tips: If you can use a heat pack it's a lot cheaper
These little patches really are like hot water bottles! I still have a couple of them left, and really enjoy using them. The portableness of them is a fantastic idea as they are discrete and small and can easily fit under your shirt undetected. The only downside would be depending on where you stick it, too much movement or fiddling with the adhesive can cause it to become unstuck! Its amazing that this small package can go from nothing to the heat intensity it reaches
Tips: Try not to readjust it or move it around as once it is stuck down and you try to re stick it on the adhesive becomes a lot less sticky!
I founds these okay and great for if you experienced period pain whilst at work. They are discreet and do help with the pain.
They are not as good as a good old hot water bottle or wheat bag, but for discreetness out in public, I am quite happy with them.
They did come unstuck quite easily, but at the same time I would be hesitant to make them stickier (for allergy reasons). You just have to get it on the right place the first time! Do be aware I find if you use them more than twice in a row, you may have a reaction to the adhesive, as with what happened with me. Just give it a day or so in between uses so as to not irritate your skin!
The most important thing is that they helped - even if just a little bit! I mainly use them for sleeping - if I can get a restful nights sleep then I can conquer anything! Also note these are great for any other abdominal pain besides just period pain - eg. IBS episodes, stomache bugs or abdominal migraines can also benefit from these!
Tips: Great for at work or outside of the house. Also great for anyone with any other abdominal issues.
Its so good for when you get a cramp and have to use a heat patch discreetly. And it works very well and gets rid of the cramps
I get really bad endometrial during my period so these are a godsend when pain relief just isn't cutting it. They heat up pretty quickly and the heat lasts for at least 5 hours when I have worn them all day. It can feel a little awkward having one of these strapped to your tummy though haha.
Tips: Wear loose fitting clothing around your stomach, like a swingy dress as these can make you look really bloated as they are quite thick.
I received these as a sample , and was pretty excited to try them as suffer from quite awful period pain . Although they arent as good as the tried and trusted hot water bottle ; they are a great alternative . They heat up to a pleasant warmth , and stay in place once applied . I found it great to use while working and would definitely buy again .
