A heating pad is nice. There are also new head pads you can strap around your waist so you can be out and about and nobody will know its there. If you can't take alieve (which I find helps a lot). If you have bad cramps and every time, you might want to see your doctor. But normal cramping I find nothing better than a heating pad and alieve. Some say Midol, but that's never worked for me. Good luck! & I'm so sorry.

Sit ups usually work for me.
But my doctor told me to try this. A few days before my period begins or when the signs come up that it's starting, starting taking Advil to prevent the cramps in the first place.

Try raspberry leaf tea or pills. I had severe cramps when I was younger and raspberry always worked. The woman that told me about this actually used raspberry supplements instead of an epidural when she had her baby.

ThermaCare heat pads work REALLY good. you just stick them to your lower stomach and they'll stay hot for about 8 hours and it makes your cramps go away. also i've found that Midol Teen Formula works better than any other medicine.

Rub some vapourizer over your tummy.It's like it literally sucks out the pain.Results within 2-3 minutes.

It always helped me to take some aspirin/Tylenol or something like that, get in a hot bath, and then get in bed, or in a relciner, etc. with a heating pad.
I hope you feel better soon!

Supposedly bananas do, but I never seem to have them around when I have cramps.

ibuprofen works wonders and the same with a heating pad and resting if they are terrible.

Regular exercise and ibuprofen.
