Answer 1

I would suggest warm heat pad to the area for 20 min. on & off when at home. And I always used Pamprin when I was younger or Tylenol. . A warm bath with epson salts and your favorite oils along with a nice cuppa hot Quietly Chamomile tea with honey before bed.

Answer 2

I would suggest Midol or Motrin.

Light exercise/keeping relatively active can help I hear.

Answer 4

Menstrual cramps are pains in the abdominal (belly) and pelvic areas that are experienced by a woman as a result of her menstrual period. Menstrual cramps are not the same as the discomfort felt during premenstrual syndrome (PMS), although the symptoms of both disorders can sometimes be experienced as a continual process. Many women suffer from both PMS and menstrual cramps.

Every woman needs to find a treatment that works for her. Perhaps the most common treatment, especially in the past, has been to lie down at the first sign of pain. It used to be that many women's restrooms contained a cot or a couch so that a woman who felt "indisposed" could lie down. A bed in the school nurse's office served the same purpose and girls were routinely excused from physical education or other classes because of menstrual cramps.

Current recommendations include not only adequate rest and sleep, but also regular exercise (especially walking). Some women find that abdominal massage, yoga, or orgasmic sexual activity help. A heating pad applied to the abdominal area may relieve the pain and congestion.

A number of nonprescription (over-the-counter) agents can help control the pain as well as actually prevent the menstrual cramps themselves. For mild cramps, aspirin or acetaminophen (Tylenol), or acetaminophen plus a diuretic (Diurex MPR, FEM-1, Midol, Pamprin, Premsyn, and others) may be sufficient. However, aspirin has limited effect in curbing the production of prostaglandin and is only useful for less painful cramps.

The main agents for treating moderate menstrual cramps are the nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), which lower the production of prostaglandin and lessen its effect. The NSAIDs that do not require a prescription are:

ibuprofen (Advil, Midol IB, Motrin, Nuprin, and others);

naproxen sodium (Aleve, Anaprox); and

ketoprofen (Actron, Orudis KT).

YOU should start taking one of these medications before her pain becomes difficult to control. This might mean starting medication 1-2 days before her period is due to begin and continuing taking medication 1-2 days into her period. The best results are obtained by taking one of the NSAIDs on a scheduled basis and not waiting for the pain to begin.

Prescription NSAIDs available for the treatment of menstrual cramps include mefenamic acid (Ponstel).

Answer 7

I use Excedrin Back and Body for cramps.. it'll make you feel great, especially if other drugs like tylenol or motrin aren't working for you.  

Answer 8

Depends on what kind of pain. It could be just from cramps. I would take ibuprofen or something, but if it is really bad where you can't stand or anything then you might want to get on birth control to help ease the pain. Another thing it could be is an ovarian cyst. I have polycystic ovaries, and I know it causes me great pain, but I recently started birth control, sooo I'll see if that works.

Answer 9

Take a Midol and put a warm heating pad on your belly...it always helps me.
