Any ideas on how to minimize the pain? It's so bad that sound, light and movement makes my stomach hurt worse. I am sick in the bed for 3/7 dayz of my period. HELP!!!

If you period is that bad you need to go see the doc and get this checked out. You may have endometriosis or PCOS. Your doc needs to check this and get this under control for you.

Conventional pain killers block the pain receivers in your brain- try to avoid them. Specialised menstral painkillers manipulate the hormones that contract and expant to cause your uterus to discard it's lining. If the specialised pain killers arn't working it's a strong symptom of Endometriosis- and I highly recomend getting a laporoscopy so that they can 'check things out'. If you do have endometriosis any amount of heat-packs, Yoga, Tea or painkillers won't help you.

I used to suffer from cramps soooo bad but never had a heat pad or anything. So what I did was drink tea, chamomile, green tea, jasmine tea, any kind of tea. It helps with the cramps, drink it hot. Usually after one mug of tea, I'm feeling sooo much better, two cups and the cramps are gone.

You need to see your gyn about this if you have a gyn or a primary care to start off with if you don't have a gyn because as one of the other posters said it could be endometriosis or PCOS. I have both of these conditions, and my endometriosis causes me the most trouble when it acts up.

Try and combination of calcium and magnesium taken with Ibuprophen. A heating pad will probably help too. If all else fails, ask you doctor for DRUGS.
