heating pads(the ones you warm up in the microwave) or anything hot! lay it on your tummy and it will make the pain instantly disappear!

I always do a combination of things. A heating pad is my best friend. Also Ibuprofen, but you said you can't take anything, and Pepsi. Caffine is a pain reliever, if you don't use it on a regular basis. Thermacare Heat Wraps are one of my favorite things. They are a little pricey- but it is a heating pad that goes with you and they really work and they stay hot all day. It says that they are guaranteed to stay hot fo 8 hours, but I have had them last longer. You can get them at any store by the pharmacy.

I use a heating pad, it helps soothe the pain a little. Also, when I started taking the birth control pill, they got much better.

I take calcium supplements for cramps. Also, plenty of water!

Try a heating pad. If you take Ibuprofen it should help as it is a muscle relaxer. It should't increase your flow.

drink plenty of water to get the hormones out of your system, and exercise regularly but not during the periods if they hurt.
