I had the same problem for a while. I found exercise really helped just before and during the first day of my period. Sitting on the sofa all hunched up was doing me no good. Also avoiding alcohol and coffee- caffeine not good- can make the pain worse. Eating small snacks helped too rather than a large meal I found. Bananas are good - full of magnesium- snack on these- avoid chocolate and have a small bowl of pasta instead. Drink plenty of water and have a nurofen tablet-(follow the stated dose) for the first day of the period- if you are not allergic to them. After plenty of exercise-a brisk walk and fresh air, go home and sit upright with a hot water bottle on your tummy to ease any pain.

You could go on the pill- you have hardly any period at all then and no pain- but does bring other problems sometimes- would need to talk to your doctor about that.

Self-Care at Home
The best way to relieve painful menstrual cramps is to take an anti-inflammatory medication. Ibuprofen (Advil is a familiar brand name), naproxen (Aleve, Naprosyn), and ketoprofen (Orudis) are available without a prescription and are effective at blocking the effects of prostaglandins.



These medications work better if taken before the start of menstruation and can be continued as long as needed. If one type does not relieve the pain, try another, because these medications do not work the same in everyone.


Anti-inflammatory medicine like this can be harsh on the stomach. If there is a history of kidney problems or stomach problems (such as ulcers or reflux), consult with the health care provider before starting this type of medication. Taking the pills with meals may help prevent upset stomach.
If anti-inflammatory medicine is not an option or if additional relief is needed, the following strategies may help relieve menstrual cramps:

A heating pad to the pelvic area


Massage to the back and lower abdomen


Exercise, especially prior to the start of a period


Thiamine 100 mg daily


Low-fat vegetarian diet


Calcium 1200 mg daily

If this is really bad and you are in a lot of pain go to the hospital, I always say it is better to be on the safe side. You know your body and if there is a sudden change especially a lot of pain, listen to what it's telling you. If you go to the hospital and a obgyn tells you different after making sure your ok and not in pain anymore, then you should be fine. You need to be seeing a obgyn, not regular doctors. Major pain is not associated with the menstrual cycle and women need to know that.

Drink lots of water. Being hydrated surprisingly will help with cramping. You should be drinking at least 8-10 glasses of water throughout the day. Trust me I know how hard that is to do. Try adding Crystal Light packets to bottles of water. That helps.

Heat packs. Warm up some towels in the dryer until they're toasty warm and put them on your abdomen. The warm will be soothing.

Get another opinion, and preferably from someone that does not share the same office of the doctor(s) you have already seen because this cramping you are having so severe is an indicator that something is very wrong.

My periods used to be terrible, so I ended up going on the pill and it helped immensley. If you're not happy with your doctor's diagnosis, ask to see another doctor (you have every right). No woman should have to suffer - and being told to let it pass - is just being totally insensitive!

take a warm shower, then take midol, then have sex(u'll be suprised how well it works) and dont use tampons if possible and drink tea and water or gatorade and stay out of cold areas or rooms and try to relax and take a nap or use a heating pad.

Options for pain are NSAIDs, Ponstan or diclofenac, provided you have no contraindications. otherwise hormones are the next option, either the pill or the progesterone ' norithisterone.'

If you've been sexually active recently, and the pain has just been during this cycle, you should get tested for an ectopic pregnancy.
