Aunt Flow!!!!!!????

Question

my period is KILLING me. I just got it after being 8 days late and i usually don't get cramps this bad. I usually don't take any medication for it either but i feel like now i might have to. I feel all bloaty and disgusting and fat! What can I do to alleviate this?

Answer 1

Mine is very bad too. What i do is this:

- Drink a nice hot cup of tea. It won't do anything but it can make you feel better.

- Take a hot water bottle and press it against your stomach to lessen the pain.

- Take some ibuprofen or paracetamol.

- Then going to sleep with the hot water bottle. Sleeping allows your body to heal and at the same time, after you wake up, you feel a lot better.

Answer 2

Any pain relievers work...Midol is the best because it's specifically for those nasty period symptoms.  You might also wanna try tying off a sock with uncooked rice in it and putting it in the microwave for a couple minutes.  It works really well for me. =]

Answer 3

advi, ibuprofen, midol

Answer 4

this happened to me also. I threw up though.

i first took Advil, and then layed in the bath for about 30 min. Then i layed down in my bed with 2 heating pads. one on my stomach and one on my back. i also had some sprite. I turned on the TV. and i fell asleep. When i woke up i was fine, and it didn't happen again.

Answer 5

Try getting a heating pad and laying it down on your tummy while laying down... Or take a warm shower.

Answer 6

Heating Pad

Tylenol

Take a warm bath

Midol

You can exercise, that will also help cramps. The only thing you can do about the heavy flow is get on birth control.

Answer 7

Go to sleep.  I know how you feel!  Whenever my sister comes to town, the hormones she puts out throw me all off, so as much as i love her, she always makes my period late, and when its late, its hellllll

I usually just crash in my bedroom and sleep until I feel better. You might try a hot water bottle or some midol if you think that would help.

Feel better!

Answer 8

advil (ibuprofen)
