Baaad Period cramps, help?!?

Question

My periods are usually great. I never get cramps or mood swings or nauseaous. This month, not so much. I've been getting very very very nauseaous and have puked once. I also have cramps to the point where it is crippling pain. All I can do is lay in bed all day and I hate it. Can someone tell me why its so bad all of a sudden and how i can get rid of them?

Answer 1

Using  aheating pad in the fetal position helps, and once you get them under control a brisk walk helps, unless there is something else going on , if it continues i suggest you see your doctor

Answer 2

Hey your not the only one so don't feel bad. I have a friend that pukes to so. I normally just relax and take it easy but it sounds like you don't like to do that so try

taking a bath

exercise

or heating

  

Answer 3

I get cramps really bad. What helps mine is avoiding dairy products and food high in fiber such as salads. I know both of these is essential to health, but I cut back on them for the first 1 to 3 days of my period then add them back into my diet. Also motrin or Midol helps a lot. Don't use blood thinner pain medicine such as aspirin. Taking a hot shower will relax you too along with using a hot pack on your stomach. If someone is around, get them to massage the area. That helps too!

Answer 4

Midol might help...a lot of girls start developing cramps or harsh and heavy periods later on so its not unheard of to all of a sudden get bad cramps and nausa...goodluck with that

Answer 5

Take 3 Aleve and yes sometimes curling in a ball will help. Also lay a heating pad on your stomach where the cramps are the worst and that will help as well.. BEEN there and done that. Mine used to be sooooo bad.

Answer 6

A woman's body goes through so many changes that even stress can do a tremendous effect on our hormones.  Just drink a lot of natural fruit juices and water, if the pain gets unbearable, take Midol. Get lots of rest...you will be fine.

Why lots of fluids? Fluids makes you urinate a lot and then the more you urinate, the more you release the pressure...I hope you feel better.

Answer 7

You may have to talk to a doctor about why there is a sudden onset of extreme pain but to get rid of cramps i have a few tips. Try: taking Midol Tylenol or some pain killer, eat a banana or chocolate, take a hot bath, lay down with a heating pad, exercise.  I hope one of those works for you! Feel Better!
