ladyshady Posted August 1 Report Share Posted August 1 try to stay away from salt and sugartake IBUPROFEN, not asprin, and maybe some Midollay down with some heating pads on your tummy and if you dont have any heating pads try some hot towelsand last but not least, some exercise is definitly goodwe all know how you feel girl:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naughtybabe Posted August 1 Report Share Posted August 1 Over the counter medications never work for me.. I get reallybad cramps.. If You are not taking anything the only thing I can tell you for you to do is put a HOT water pouchright on your tummy.. that works wonders..I also heard that Celebrex is really good. Ask your doctor! (haha I just sounded like a commercial)Good luck with your cramps - god knows I hate getting mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nSyNcBaBy Posted August 1 Author Report Share Posted August 1 what i usually do is take midol cramp.. lay down with a heating pad and nap... sleeping it off usually lets the meds kick in and the heat relax the muscles and when i wake up i usually feel a lil betterso hopefully itll work well enough so i can go out laterthis sucksits times like these when i hate being female.

naughtybabe Posted August 1 Report Share Posted August 1 My gyno told me that the trick in taking medication for yourcramps is to begin taking them a day or two before you begin your cycle... I totally hear you.. I love being a woman but I just sometimeswish the cramps where not included!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcid21 Posted August 1 Report Share Posted August 1 i used to get really bad cramps as well....they key, along with meds to help....is maintaining your diet.....my gynie told me to avoid satisfying cravings (( salt vs sweet )) and to just eat very blandish the week before and during your period.....this means no caffeine, lots of water, nothing heavy....etc....Listening to her worked wonders....now my cramps last for less than a day and are no where near as bad....another trick i learned to kick cravings was to take a stacker once a day in the morning.....but that's your decision Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fierydesire Posted August 1 Report Share Posted August 1 Lynne, I feel ya babes Cramps suck balls . . . what works for me is motrin . . . I used to get really bad cramps as well. I remember when my ex used to come over during the aunt flow time and well he used to get kicked off the bed. I was like a fucken horse, he would not fuck with me during that time . . anyways rambling...why dont u try curling up in a fetus position, that always helps me. Like with cramps, you have to find the right position that suits you and makes it go away. Sometimes it takes me hours to find that right spot. . . Feel better bebe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sassa Posted August 4 Report Share Posted August 4 take 3 aleve (find it to be better than advil) and just lay down with a heating pad.or do what i used to do back in the day: smoke a big fat joint. it really helps and you'll be high for an hour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
girlhopeful Posted August 4 Report Share Posted August 4 i usually get them REALLY bad on the first day... when i start it, i immediatley take a few advil before the cramps start... if i wait till after they start there's usually nothing i can do and am in hell for the whole day!

therunner Posted August 4 Report Share Posted August 4 I get them after running sometimes. I usually just drink more water and that helps. Stretching out before and after is a good thing to do also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mala Posted August 4 Report Share Posted August 4 My college sex-ed teacher told us that sex or masturbation makes cramps go away immediately. Both methods are equal as long as you achieve orgasm. The uterine contractions of the orgasm help to expel menstrual fluids as well as relaxing muscles. Once I heard this I couldn't wait until my next period to arrive so I could try this. Sure enough, it works. Buh-bye Midol! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
