squishy	CHOCOLATE!!!......CHOCOLATE!!!......CHOC... and of course take something like Pamprin or other brand name monthly pain Reliever that's specific for that symptom.....drink some hot Green Tea with antioxidants in it so it helps to cleanse your system of toxins and can help relieve the cramping.......also having a heating pad across the belly and alternate to the lower back every few minutes will feel especially good......also let your doc know how it affects you and he could recommend outpatient surgery called D&C and uterine balloon ablation...... I had that procedure done to relieve me of cramps and very long periods......they use hot liquid that expands a balloon that's inserted into the uterus after the D&C has cleansed you from the old lining then the balloon part cauterizes the lining of the uterus and it's like new. It only takes about an hour or less and after recovery you go home that day with minimal cramping for about 2 days or less afterward but it was worth it.....it reduced the length of each period and regulated me. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

jenfleur	I take Ibuprofen, but until it kicks in, I go into a yoga pose that helps instantly: cobbler's pose, which is sitting with the soles of your feet touching, and your knees out. Basically, any position where you feel a stretch in your inner thigh and hip area relieves the tension of cramps. Hope this helps you too! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

jadejadeforeternity	Treat menstrual cramps using pickle juice - Simply drain the juice from a bottle of pickles and drink. You could also make the juice into popsicle to eat when you feel the cramps coming on. This remedy really works wonders. Treat menstrual cramps using olive or corn oil - This is a remedy my great grandmother gave to me when I was a teenager. Simply heat a few tablespoons of either olive oil or corn oil in the microwave and massage into the lower area of your stomach and also on the lower back. If you do this every morning of your cycle you will be pain free for the cycle of your period. Hope this helps Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Yoda	I am not a woman, however I will tell you that one of the best things for cramping is to regularly take Calcium. Not Centrum or one of those one a day pills, but Calcium from a health food store, that also contains Magnesium and Vitamin D. Calcium helps remove impurities from your muscle tissues. This helps to relieve many types of cramps all over the body. It won't work over night, but if you start now next month should be better. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
