Period!! help

oh my gosh, I get the worst pains when im on my period... yes I tried midol but it doesnt help.
even went to my doctor... the pills dont help at all.
my mom had the same bad cramps when she was my age.
any help or advice on what I should do?

I dont take midol because they dont work for me. But I take motrin or advil and they work for me at the mexican stores they sell some pillls that are great for cramps. im not sure what they are called but if theres a mexican near by go ask. then after that I drink a hot tea and fall asleep then when I wake up its like I never had pain oh at eat a bananna... I know it sounds weird.. but well I hope it works for you..

well, I'm not sure if it is proven, but I hear that exersize helps. It seems to work for me.

During the school year when I have PE I have a lot lighter periods and have hardly any cramps. Now that it is summer time they are worse.

My sister has really bad cramps to where she can't do anything and she doesn't exersize.
