i use ibuprofen, it works, but it still hurts a little. a friend of mine has her cat lay on her stomach (i like that one, but i don't have a cat) what do you use? also, whats the best brand of tampon (i can always feel them. its not uncomfortable, but i know its there whenever i change positions). discuss.

I love how its the bush supporter that started talking about freaking Eve.

Period pains are contractions of the muscles in the womb and uterus, therefore the best thing is a prescription from a DR for a drug that stops these cramps
Otherwise, my advice - i went on the contraceptive injection and have not had a period for four years.... pain free

Ive looked for a problem like this on other sites, wasnt there! Thanks Blurby!

okay so everyone is sayying use ibuprofen .... DONT use tylenol any ibuprofen medicine mkaes you bleed worse so dont use advil motrin ibuprofin.

MIDOL EXTRA STRENGTH!!!!!!!! and a heating pad.

oh my god...i have the worst cramps in the world!! i can tell when its coming,my left leg goes numb [weird, i kno!] so i have to get advil, fast!..advil is the only thing that helps me..but if i get to the pills too late i ask my mom to make me tea. I love TEA!!, its my life saver.If i feel it coming i use one pill but if it doesn't get better in 5 minutes i get another one..i cant wait for 10 min..
After my leg goes numb.i get this horrible twisting feeling in my lower abdomen..my lower back gets sore..i get irritated very fast..i dont want to talk to anyone, i dont want to breath,'cause it makes it worse, i dont want anyone to talk. I cant move and i just want evrybody to leave the room. and I want to scream and cry soo freakin bad!..if it still continuous i get so nauseous i sit right in front of the toilet 'till it goes away.

But for the life of me I try to swallow 2 Advil pills and chug down green tea.

Im 14 and when i get cramps i cant move, talk, or do anything functional. I try taking baths relaxing, walking around, and medicine, and even stretching. I end up having cramps for over 2 hr before they go away. Even if i take 3 or 4 pills. I cry everytie i get them. what do i do? They hurt so bad.

Ladies, please try to keep this thread on topic. Please post the things that work for you to relieve menstrual cramps. Everyone here is posting for the same purpose, so there is no need to ask the question again.

TAKE PILLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

bananas get rid of cramps.
+ I use midol for my period needs."
For tampons, i use tampax pearl.
And you might want to stick the tampon up more if you can feel it.

neoafen ahhhhhhhhhhh i can't speel it but there u go

i take baths, listen to music i enjoy, and use an old family recipe that my doctor said was completely healthy: I mix i few drops of spirits of ammonia in a glass of coke(it covers up the taste the most). The reason it works is because the spirits is a natural muscle relaxer.

obviously you have never had a crap in your life, you would probably die from the pain if you got them as bad as me.

Okay so I am 18 and have had my period for 8 years I just started to get cramps really bad what to do to get rid of them???


HELP

See a doctor if it is really bad, they may prescribe an anti-inflamatory or a strong painkiller. Sometimes it is too painful to exercise so try resting.

Cramps are totally normal (your body's preparation for child birth), but if they're unbearable you should see a doctor/gyno to be sure your healthy. G.l.

Ibprofen, exercise, and water. and i use kotex. don't feel a thing.

and puh. it's not our fault that she did.

If Eve didn't eat from the Tree of Knowledge, you wouldn't have been punished.

I use tampax. Or playtex. I still feel it though

I have the worst cramps right now..my body feels like i ran a marathon! I feel physically and mentally sicks. Midol isnt working, and neither is eating healthy (though i always do) Any ideas on help?
