As you fellow women out there know, that particular time of the month comes around and you feel really really crappy - mood swings, stomach cramps, bloating, fatigue, headaches, backache, sideache, whatever ache. You reach for whatever pain relief you can find and get hold of to help those symptoms of PMS. Sorry guys, but this is a girlie thing, but please keep reading, you might actually learn something - and it might make you laugh later on.
So, through the power of television adverts, I saw this new over-the-counter tablets called Midol Menstrual Complete, that alleviates these problems, and the uncanny thing is, it's available over here as well (shock, horror, faints in disbelief!!). So I bought a packet. This industry is worth tens of thousands, if not millions of dollars trying to aid women through those difficult days each month.
Being of the inquisitive mind, I looked on the associated website and came across the following instructions and the point that struck me was under the heading "Warnings" and it states "Ask a doctor before use if you have.....difficulty in urination due to enlargement of the prostate gland" (go on, go and see for yourself --> {Link here})
Erm...if the people who wrote this web page are reading this (and that also includes the people that verified and proofed the page as well) - I think you really really really REALLY need to go back and look over your biology notes...women do not have a prostate gland!!! (not that i'm being sarcastic or anything as thats the lowest form of wit and I won't stoop that low....)
This also begs the question - What man in his right mind would take PMS tablets?
What is the world coming to???
