Why do my cramps hurt so bad?

Home More advice Health

Very early this morning, at 3 am, I woke up and I had cramps that hurt really bad. :( since they were bad I took two ibuprofen's and tried to go back to sleep, but I felt like my stomach was searing with pain , and I was psyichally writhing it hurt so bad, even if I tried to relax, my body would automatically start moving from the pain, and when I went to the bathroom I threw up (not pleasant :( and they still were bad, so I ended up falling asleep with a heating pad on. Are period cramps supposed to hurt that bad that your writhing in pain? This is the first time I've had cramps this bad, I'm a little concerned.
