Answer 1

put something warm on your stomach,or better a towel with vinegar, no joke!

Answer 2

You need to talk to your doctor about this. There is medications your doctor can put you on. Or you could try using Midol. Home remedies have never worked for me. Midol does take away the cramping, but when it runs out OMG cramps are back.

Answer 3

Well, certainly you should speak with your doctor. In the meantime, here are some things that might help. Gentle heat may help relieve the pain (heating pad, a hot water bottle or those heat packs that stick on work great). Chamomile tea may also help make you feel better. Also, eating healthy in between periods and making sure you are getting enough B vitamins.

Answer 4

I really Hope this helps you and your able to find some comfort in it. Personally I always took a warm bath. I wouldn't suggest Vicadin because it can lead to Addiction.....Please see the following and try to relax as much as humanly possible, it actually helps....
Dysmenorrhea (menstrual cramps)

By even the most conservative definitions, well over 40% of women everywhere suffer from painful abdominal cramping before and during their menstrual periods. Some women are bedridden by their period pain, frequently missing work and other obligations. Reports may vary on how data are collected on this, or which populations are surveyed, but there’s little doubt that women’s discomfort with their periods is a fairly global experience.

This leads us to wonder why, in the past, so many doctors dismissed menstrual cramps as a myth. As more about the physiology of PMS has been revealed, we now understand that dysmenorrhea is a real condition, that there are genuine physiological causes for menstrual cramps.

The good news is that, provided you have no serious underlying health conditions, you can alleviate menstrual cramping if you give your body the right support. Even deeply entrenched cases of cramping that cannot be resolved entirely can improve considerably with positive changes in lifestyle and nutrition that encourage hormonal balance.

Primary dysmenorrhea is cramping abdominal pain that lasts upwards of several days during your monthly blood flow. It can be accompanied by a number of related symptoms, including bloating, nausea, vomiting, headache, backaches, pain that radiates down the thighs, or diarrhea, and is caused by excess prostaglandin levels. Prostaglandins are hormone–like fatty acids that send pain signals to the brain. The additional prostaglandins cause small contractions of the uterine wall and the gastrointestinal symptoms that accompany dysmenorrhea.

This kind of spasmodic menstrual cramp is most common in younger women and often resolves itself with age. Many women report their menstrual cramping dissipates after their first pregnancy,

Take note that sometimes a benign ovarian cyst or ectopic pregnancy can cause acute pelvic pain toward the end of your cycle. If you are experiencing tenderness and sharp pain that does not subside with with the onset of your menstrual flow, see your healthcare provider as soon as possible.

Secondary dysmenorrhea is characterized by a kind of congested, dull pain that begins up to two weeks before the start of your flow. This kind of cramping is more common in women in their 30’s and 40’s and usually does not get better with age. It can be accompanied by bloating, weight gain, breast tenderness, headaches, lower back pain, and irritability.

Symptoms may be exacerbated by fluctuating estrogen levels, which in turn cause fluid retention. Chinese doctors view this kind of painful period as a form of blood stasis, in which vital energy is unable to flow freely through the lower abdomen. Underlying causes of this kind of pain other than hormonal imbalance can include:

* Endometriosis (ectopic endometrial tissue)
* Adenomyosis (endometrial tissue within uterine wall)
* Pelvic infection
* Intrauterine device (IUD)
* Cervical stenosis (stricture of the internal cervical os, the opening to the uterus)
* Congenital uterine or vaginal abnormalities
* Fibroids

Answer 5

Ask your doctor for a prescription of Ponstan, it works really well or get on a birth control pill like Trifasel 24 or 28s to control your cycle. My spelling may be off but they are spelled exactly the way they sound.

Answer 6

Bromelade, it is a derivative of pineapple and can be found in the supplement section of your health food stores.
Dark chocolate of 65% or more, it will help relax the smoothe muscles in your abdomen which are where the cramps are coming from.
Plenty of rest, plenty of fluids, and sex does help at times as well.
Avoid meats, strenuous exercise, and sit ups crunches or squats.

Answer 7

Do not take Advil or Tylenol for an upset stomach. It will make it worse. Try drinking chamomile tea. It helps to relax your muscles and sooth your stomach.

Answer 8

Well I am not positive about really bad cramps but for smaller cramps eating Banannas, taking a bath..... maybe Vikidin

Answer 9

Talk to your doctor since Midol is not helping. They could give you suggestions on how to lighten your cramps.

I used to have them that bad too but they lightened up when I went on the pill.

Answer 10

Try using pads at night and drink alot of water too you might get blood clots that looks like liver, eeeewww I know. Warm bath, After having a kid they might hurt less, but not a suggestion

Answer 11

When I used to get those bad cramps that gave me the chills and what nots crawlin down my legs, Mortin helps me wonders.

Try going to your gynocologist....whether you are sexually active or not, the birth control pills help your period stay on schedule every month, and for me it subsides them ten times more.
