Question Posted Wednesday January 17 2007, 10:06 pm
ok, when i get my period, and a few days befor (can be up to 2 weeks) i get really bad cramps and they make me litterally double over sometimes. i do not have access to a hot water bottle or heating pad, i take midole but it doesn't always stop all the cramping. my flow is not heavy so i don't see why i get them so bad. are there any home remedies i can use to relive the pain? i only have a bean bag that you can warm up in the micro wave right now, and i've been using it all evening..or whenever time permits it. by the way, i'm 15 and oviously a female.
