Girls...have you any advice on how to cope with stomach cramps?!?

Answer 1

ibuprofen and drink plenty of water. takes about 30 minutes, you may need to take 600mgs.

Answer 2

I have severe cramps, and only 3 Nurofen (ibuprofen 200mg each tablet) will get rid of it - mostly, but I do use an oil blend I made myself. Its 5 drops each of Bergamot, Lemongrass and Lavender 100% essential oils in a 10ml base of grapeseed oil. rub the mixture on the stomach and back (if you get back pain). It doesn't get rid of it completely, but it does ease it to a dull ache. Also, that 4Head is very good for the same purpose!

Also, Sainsbury's do Ibuprofen in 400mg tablets, they are big, and hard to swallow, but are great for knocking you out!

Also, I find that excercise simply makes mine much worse, so that is down to the individual.

Oh, and I just read the comment about a goof fart, and you know what? Having a good fart actually relieves some of the pressure felt in the lower abdomen!

Answer 3

Ladies, to cope with stomach cramps, drink some Lemon Zinger Tea. A nice, hot, soothing cup of Lemon Zinger Tea with wonderful and excellent for stomach cramps.

Answer 4

Try menstral pain killer OTC. IF not, drink alcohol.

I suffer from serious cramps only if I didn't workout before that period. So workout and break a sweat. Try this, but everyone's body should be slightly different...

When I do have cramps, I drink 1-2 glasses of red wine because alcohol can make the blood more watery and runny to reduce cramping.

Answer 5

I know a lot of people say use a hot water bottle but i find that a cold damp cloth on my stomach helps, plus a little lavender oil..
If you are in great pain seek advice from you doctor or nurse...

Answer 6

Use Jasmine essential oil (5 drops in 5 millilitre of oil or cream) apply to your abdomen if you are premenstrual. Lavender oil or rose can also be use for cramps in the same way. If you are pregnant use orange or mandarin oil 1 drop in 1 teaspoon of cream.
