Its really refreshing to see a guy who actually shows some concern / care about his girlfriend when she is going through pain. Most men would say stay away, and give no sympathy - so 10 points for you for being a sweetie!!!
Best thing you can do is just be sympathetic. She has a hot water bottle already which will help (although is she is getting both stomach and back pains, get her another 1 so she can have heat on both sides at the same time!). General painkillers like Paracetamol or nurofen will help.
If her pains are terrible, bleeding is particularly bad, I would suggest that she sees her doctor. They may be able to prescribe her something to help. Going on the pill may also help. Its not an excuse to have careless sex - it can help with period pain, blood flow etc - so perhaps that is something for her to consider (dependant upon her age of course!)
Well done you though for showing you care!
PS. Offer lots of cups of tea and bring her a big bar of dairy milk. That will cheer her up! :)

You must be a very thoughtful and considerate chap.
Speaking from experience and a lot of research, I would say the hot water bottle is a good start.
A massage on the base of her back is very soothing & a really hot bath as hot as she can bear but still soothing of course.
Personally I have been gradually switching from the prescribed medicines to natural ones over the past year , because I found that they were not helping the cause and I was needing to take more of them.
I have been weening myself off of them and believe I will be free of them soon.
Natural medicnes to try would be Cramp Bark, you can get this in capsules take approx 2-3 about three times a day (from your local health food store) preferably before pain starts if she can predict that.
Base cause for the pain probably means her liver could do with a little cleansing, I always avoid fried food but she might avoid it just around the time of her period.
Ways to cleanse the liver would be take a tincture of Milk Thistle (health food store) if she hates the taste you can get Milk Thistle in capules too take everyday about 3x a day this for a couple of months, or ask at the health food store for a liver cleasing kit or advice.
I also read the other day that Oregano Leaf was good for cramping - so you could research that?
By the way, athough asprin and other drugs are very wonderful at times in the long run they are not helpful to the liver and the rest of your body.
And dont believe there is nothing that cant be done, I really dont believe that is something we have to put up with every month.
Hope this helps

An adult woman should be able to handle this on her own. If she can't she's way too high maintenance. If she can't handle it, tell her to see her doctor. It's not your responsibility to help her through her period for cripes sake.

Try applying a slight pressure to her abdomin where her pain is. My friend gets really bad cramps and she says that that helps her a lot. Otherwise, the only other thing you can do is just leave her alone in a nice hot bath to ease some of the pain. Good luck! Hope she feels better!

Go get her some Tylenol or pamprin :) Just let her rest and make sure shes comforatable.
If the pain is that severe she might want to see her doctor and see if anything more serious is going on.

She probably should go to the doctor! They will probably want her to be on some kind of horomal treatments to help with the pain! It is nice you are trying to help her, but she needs to go see a doctor if the pain is very intense for her!

To be sweet to my girl, I either get her a heating pad or just hold my warm hand on her tummy below her belly button. But, it sounds like your girlfriend may have more pain than most.
Has she discussed this with her doctor? The doctor could either figure out if something is wrong or give her a prescription that may help.

It sounds like she either needs to see a doctor to treat something more serious... or shes just a touch dramatic and wants attention from you. you sound like a great guy, dont let her walk all over you. Like someone else said already, she is a grown woman and should know how to deal with the pain of a monthly period. The hot water bottle should help and some extra strength midol should do the trick.

Go get her some Aleve. You'll find it in the pain relief section at your local pharmacy. If the pain does NOT abate, you need to consider the possiblity of other problems (e.g., ovarian cyst, endometriosis). If the level of pain seems this intense and it occurs regularly, please encourage her to schedule an appointment with a gynecologist for a thorough evaluation.

Make her a doctors appointment, there are lots of conditions that can be the cause and lots of treatments. The thought of exercise is awful but getting the circulation going does help. You sound lovely.

Your girlfriend may benefit from being on the birth control pill. This greatly reduces pms and pain associated with menstral periods. In the meantime she can take something like midol that she can find at your local drug store.This is effective for back pain, bloating and feeling tired. Hope this helps...
