Place a 3500 ceramic gauss magnet or better a neodynium 12000 + gauss. North Pole side down above where you feel the pain. Also buy this book: THE ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE - definitive guide.

A heating pad on low setting sometimes helps, also Peppermint tea might help. One herbal remedy used in Mexico is to boil dried Parsley flakes to make a strong tea, and sip on it throughout the day-this is specifically for menstrual cramps.

I hope that youv'e gone to see a Doctor about this pain there are many reasons for it one is endometriosis and it can cause alot of pain, if you catch it early enough they can really help you to get rid of it. But in the meantime take good old Aspirin and put a hot water bottle on your abdomen and raise your legs (remember to bend them at the knees though). Another thing is to go on birth control pills they often have an effect that helps lessen cramps and pain for many women. It's really to bad you can't take IBU it really does work the best for this type of pain, but Aspirin is also an antinflamatory so it should reduce the pain. One other thing take the Aspirin right at the first sign of your cycle it will really make a difference. Good luck to you.

take a plastic bag and fill it with hot water and rest it on your stomach. while doing that, lay on the ground and stretch your bod out and stretch. i reccomend eating some food and drinking fluids. take asprin or non asprin and lay on your bed. try to get some sleep, that does good to the tummy. then whenever it hurts really bad in the middle of the night, squeeze the pillow really hard. also, take some Lavender, mint, or rose oil and put them on your pillow. that soothes the mind, body and stomach

good luck, and i hope you feel better

well, to help with cramps, try some hot Chamomile, a hot bath, or if no bad then a hot shower, a hot woter bottle or those heating pads for your tummy/lower backk (my back always hurts). Usually Tylenol will help, Tylenol doesn't have ibuprofein (my other half can only tak Tylenol he's alergic to penesilin and ibuprofein).

This could be cause due to improper movement of the lumbar spine (low back), or pelvis. This is most likely caused from muscular contractions during your period. If the joints of this area are not motioning properly they can cause a number of problems. Chiropractic is your best bet for proper treatment. A good chiropractor will be able to correct this problem very easily and safely.

The Lancet, the world’s leading general medical journal, and the British Medical Journal published this randomized study of chiropractic and hospital out patient treatment. The study used 741 patients. They noted the study “showed a strong and clear advantage for patients with chiropractic.”

It is also great that you are not taking medications for this as they can be very dangerous!

American Association for Cancer Research
NSAIDs (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) such as Advil, Motrin, Aleve, Ibuprofen, Naproxen, ect. taken for 6 months doubles a persons chances of heart attack, stroke, or other heart related problem. “NSAID users were dying at twice the rate of nonusers.” Ibuprofen users were 3 times likely to die of cardiovascular problems.

Journal of the National Institute of Cancer published a research study done on 114,460 women that showed women who take Ibuprofen for 5 yrs are 50% more likely to develop breast cancer and women who take aprin for 5 yrs are 80% more likely to develop breast cancer.

Raspberry leaf tea (health food store) has been used for hundreds of years to relieve discomfort. Also taking Calcium/Magnesium supplements will help. And strangely, if you lie on your stomach the weight of your body may help the spasms of the muscles subside (spasming muscles can be causing the pain) - it will feel horrid at first but it can help. I used to think I was going to die from the pain - and all the above helped me live. Also, the other advice about eating meat, using heating pads and drinking more water are excellent advice.

Dong Quai or female Ginseng

This solution is not an immediate solution as you need to build up the herb in your body (about a month) before you get the full effects. It is a tonic herb and you must take a dose daily (even when you are not having menstrual cramps) Dosages will be listed on the package. You should be able to find it at a health food store or nutritional supplements store. It is also available on-line.

Just google search: Dong Quai

As a side note it also is very effective at combating teenage acne.
And lastly check with your doctor if you have any doubts.

Lots of water.

This might sound weird but eat some meat. You need iron and protien because you are losing blood. This helps rebuild cells around your endometrium.

Dont take asprin or Ibuprofen, that makes your blood thinner, and you will lose more.

Get some rest, and put a heat pad, or something warm on your belly.

There is this tea I dont know if you can find it, its called Uratic,
its a mix of Licorice, horse-tail root, urvi usa, cloves.

Good fruit to nibble on when your on your period are pamagranets, and apples. Nothing acidic.


Warm milk with vanilla this can help you sleep.

be easy on sugar less than 1tsp, so you can sleep and your not awake all night.

Bad cramps run in my family (6 sisters) and would put me out of commission at least one day a month. Talk to your doctor about the possiblity of going on birth control pills. They help a lot of women with cramps. In the meantime, hot water bottles, heating pads, a bottle of wine, a cup of hot tea....all of these can help your muscles relax.

Some exercise will help - nothing too vigorous - maybe a long walk.

Supplementing your diet with Zinc and Calcium has been found to reduce cramps, bloating, and related pms symptoms.

Herbal remedies such as Viburnum prunifolium, Scutellaria spp., and Cimicifuga raemosa have an antispasmodic effect that may reduce some menstrual cramps. Other useful herbs include cramp bark, squaw vine, unicorn root, Bromelain, Evening Primrose Oil, and Blue Cohosh.

Try taking a warm bath and using aromatherapy or using a heating pad on your lower abdomen or back. If you don't have a heating pad, a heating pad can be made by filling a sock with rice and heating it in the microwave. Heat seems to be the best solution for me. A hot water bottle or a heating pad can help.

These links have additional suggestions.
