How can I comfort my friend ?
My friend was hugging me today and crying because she's on her period and she said it really hurts. She wants me to cuddle with her. Is it ok ? What else can I do to help her ?

Maybe give some free advice about: Friendship?
There is nothing wrong with holding, cuddling or hugging someone when they are hurting. People draw comfort from closeness from others. Especially those that they are close with and are in any type of friendship or loving relationship.
While soothing your friend during this time you should encourage her to see her GYN. While painful periods are not uncommon; they should not be totally debilitating or cause tears. Your friends doctor may be able to recommend some medication to help at this time or to make her periods less painful.

Ummm...if your friend is having that much pain on her period she should be taking pills for it or telling her doctor, but to answer your question, if you don't have a problem cuddling with her, go ahead. You are just friends and also you can make her laugh or do stuff to get her mind away from the pain.
