very severe abdominal cramps that make me cry.
I have just started my periods and i have severe cramping in my stomach that makes me cry, i have to curl into a ball for it to ease off, once it eases off about 5 mins later its there again.
I had them same thing at the begining of yearand was constantly at the doctors, worst thing was they could not get to the bottom of this, they didn't know what this was, it eventually stopped when i went on the pill, the pill made me not have any periods but i recently ran out and need a reapeat prescription this is the only reason i have my periods, anyone help?

I had the same problem when I first started my periods. My saving grace was a hot water bottle. Not much help when you have to be at school, but when I got home I'd put on the kettle and heat up the water for the hot water bottle. Then I'd wrap it in a light towel and go to bed with it on my tummy... it helped a lot! The hotter the better, it relaxes your muscles in your abdomin, which is what cramps are, your muscles contracting constantly. Only down side is that you have to keep heating up the water. But it was blessed relief when I would put that on. Also, do what you can to refill your prescription. If you have a prescription then you should be able to call it in whenever you run out. You really don't need to let it run out.

I'm afraid your best help is still the doctors and the medication.
There are a lot of reasons that a woman may experience really painful cramps, and it's impossible to guess what the root of your troubles are.
For what it's worth, I found that soaking in hot showers really helped me, and that cutting out harder to digest things, like dairy products and candy, has helped a bit. But in the end, I needed medical help, and you probably do too.
