I am in so much pain!!! This is my first period and I have been crying since about 8 this morning. I tried tylnol motron a heating pad a warm shower nothing works!! pleasew please please send advice i am in so much pain!

There are various reasons why the pills don't work. You know, Motrin/Tylenol/Ibuprofen/whatever doesn't work unless you've eaten something. It also doesn't work if you don't drink a huge glass of water with it. It takes a lot of water to dissolve the pill in your stomach.

Here's what I always do. Whenever cramps become unbearable, I always boil a cup of hot water with brown sugar or ginger. The brown sugar/ginger helps the blood circulate better. Then, I drink it with two pills of Motrin, lie in bed under an electric blanket, and just wait. It works! Try it. And next time, take TWO pills. One might not be enough.

Feel better!
