This is probably in the wrong category, but I don't care.
Anyways:
I've had my period for 3 years. I hate having it. My cramps suck & they make me vomit sometimes. They hurt so much I don't even like going to school, let alone getting out of bed.
I took Midol 3 hours of ago & my cramps still hurt. They haven't gone away like they're supposed to. I'd ask my mom for more but the box is almost gone & I need it to last me the next 5 days. =( There's only 6 pills left! My mom won't buy any more because she's only got 20 dollars & it needs to last her until next week?
Anything else I can do to make these cramps go away? I'm really sick of them & being a girl & I just wanna kill my period. It's seriously starting to piss me off! =(
You sound financially strapped, but actually you need to see a gynocologist. Also, before ovulation, the body releases hormones and lines the uterus for the egg to attach to when fertilized (periods are to "wash" the unfertilized egg and hormones out when not pregnated) and this can build up and cause "endimetriosis" which causes cramps to get more severe.
You could have a cyst or tumor on an ovary causing the severe cramps, or other gyno problems.
In the meantime, use a heating pad across your stomach (over your ovary that is hurting) or or your back if it is the cramping area, as that heat relieves the cramps and pain with using Midol. IF you need the Midol to last, take aspirin or subsistute every other dosage.
Also, beware: the heating pad will cause heavier bleeding. Although bleeding is NOT 24/7, and some girls bleed at night only, it puddles inside the vaginal canal and exits later, so heat will aide in the exit.
Remain in bed or lying down off your feet as much as you can if seriously painful, with heating pad and Midol or aspirins, and see a gynocologist ASAP.
P.S. NO THAT DOES NOT MEAN YOU CAN NOT HAVE KIDS. IF IT IS A CYST OR TUMOR THEY PERFORM A LASER SURGERY (EVEN CALLED A BANDAID SURGERY) TO ZAP IT OFF....A PROCEEDURE WHERE A LENS IS INSERTED THROUGH THE BELLY BUTTON AND A SMALL INCENSION IS MADE ON THE STOMACH NEAR THE OVARY (THUS BANDAID SURGERY CAUSE IT'S SO SMALL A BANDAID IS USED AFTERWARD) AND THE LASER IS INSERTED TO ZAP THE CYST.) I've had it done, and I know friends that have. I have three kids, six grandkids and one great grandkid.

That seriously freaked me out, and if I have a tumor, does that mean I won't be able to have kids!? =(
