I undergo a lot of pain during my periods.
As suggested, I drink plenty of water and hot drinks to avoid all this trauma but I dosen't seem to help me. Also, I get heavy flows and this makes me irritated all the time, keeping me out of work for atleast two days... I am just so helpless...
Please help...!
If your in extreme pain and normal meds aren't doing anything for you... Go to your doctor and ask him for something stronger. If you don't already go to a GYN... This is the time to start going- they will have more info and help for you. You may have endometriosis... Which is VERY painful... But if they diagnose you they can help... So I'd make an appointment... Good luck!
I know how you feel, I'm in pain right this very moment. I take painkillers but they only ease the pain a little bit. I heard once that going on the contraceptive pill can help make it less painful and also control the bleeding, but im not sure how much truth is in that?
Make sure your calcium and magnesium levels are normal and that you are not subclinically hypothyroid.
Hot drinks makes the flow heavier
but try a warm water bottle
