Avatar f tn I never needed it but for the first two days of my period. Advil is not a pain reliever or pain medicine, it is a muscle relaxer, basically. In other words, it blocks the prostaglandin that cause muscles to cramp, so they don't cramp. That's why it is so good for menstrual cramps. I don't recommend pain pills or opiates for period pain, but Advil can be just the thing.
1395422 tn?1308016251 Everyone woman knows what a menstrual cramp is. It may come as a surprise to many that menstrual cramps have another name. The medical term for these abdominal and pelvic pains is “dysmenorrhea”. More than 50% of women are affected each month by a certain degree of dysmenorrhea, and 15% of those women are experiencing severe cramping. Isn’t this PMS?
Avatar n tn ve been having such severe menstrual cramps that I have to take some kind of medicine to remain functional throughout the day. When I take anything containing Aspirin I get really sick with symptoms including: running nose , asthma attacks, anxiety, and a rapid heart beat, so I've been taking low doses of Tylenol once a month. Recently I've noticed when I take Tylenol I get rather fatigued and get a runny nose.
Avatar f tn I will be 38 weeks Friday. And today I've bee n having menstrual like cramps in my lower back. Anyone can relate? Or know if this is pre labor?
6387609 tn?1393274731 How far along are you? At 30wks I went to dr & hospital for having really bad cramps & back pain and I ended up getting monitored all day & they said I was having uterine irritability (mini contractions) & they had to give me a preterm labor shot. They said it could've been brought on by dehydration or bacterial vaginosis (an infection I had at the time).
Avatar f tn I get such severe menstrual cramps every month and it's unbearable.. I started this morning and have already taken my prescription pain medication, but it's not working. I'm wearing a heating pad which slightly helps. I do all the "home remedies", though I'm still in pain! What else can I do for pain management?? I have an appointment with my gyno in a week and a half, but today and tomorrow I have the extreme pain and want to do something to stop it now. Any ideas?
7454812 tn?1391877431 If Tylenol Helps It's Just Cramping If It Doesn't Go To Er That's What I Was Told At Er A Few Days ago
3055148 tn?1368211800 D Because I went into preterm labor with my son, and all it felt like was menstrual cramps that were coming and going, and it was actually contractions. Everything was fine this time, it wasn't contractions, just the way she was laying. I would drink some water, take some tylenol, and relax for an hour or so, if it doesn't go away, I'd go in and just get it checked out!
Avatar f tn I had the same problem. It's simply growing pains. As your uterus grows with the baby, you will have cramps similar to menstrual cramps. Just rest when you can and ask your doctor if you can take some Tylenol. I'm 30 weeks+ and my baby and I are great! God bless you!
Avatar n tn I feel the same way....
Avatar f tn Yes but it also depends on how it is. I get some here and there but it's nothing unbearable or anything. They say it's really bad if it's like menstrual cramps or worse, or if theres really heavy bleeding. But gotta always trust your gut.
Avatar f tn I thought it was bracton hicks but now im 100% convinced that its not. My entire stomach cramps up...not like menstrual cramps...like u have gas. Then i have these weird sharp shooting pains on my sides. This all started wen i took a "tylenol" from the store. I went in the store and asked for a packet of tylenol cuz i was sick...so he gave me a packet...but the onli thing was that it didnt say tylenol on it....it said pain relief.
Avatar f tn Hi there. Tylenol is what is recommended for pain and discomfort including cramps. Mayo Clinic suggests no more then 2,000 mg per day if you have liver disease which includes people with Hepatitis C. Tylenol is a better choice then pills containing ibuprofen such as Advil or Motrin. The only concern with Tylenol is that you do not want to have any form of alcohol in combination with this drug. As always with any pain meds, the less the better. ....Kim .
Avatar f tn Has anyone experienced menstrual like cramps early in pregnancy? I am almost 6 weeks and have off and on menstrual like cramps anywhere from my sides to my pelvic area. I had an ovarian cyst rupture recently so I was told the pain in my side came from the fluid left around my ovaries and that it would take care of itself. It has been 11 days since the cyst ruptured but I still occasionally have pain.
Avatar f tn I mean I had bad menstrual cramps my whole life, to the point where I laid down and cried, so I was able to lay there and endure fairly bad cramps without meds and wasn't even concerned. Looking back I found it odd lol. I wasn't even concerned enough to call my mom. But yeah, totally normal. Water, watch TV, rest.
Avatar f tn Have you had a bowel movement lately? I have this problem all the time where I get severe cramps in my lower abdomen like menstrual cramps but its cuz I haven't been able to go for a few days. Try a warm bath and maybe track bm to make sure they r regular. I know it sounds goofy but I ended up in er a few years back cuz it was so bad. Drink lots of water but still go see dr. Cramping is normal during pregnancy tho. Most of it is your body just stretching out from a growing uterus.
Avatar f tn Not always normal. At least not for me. I had menstrual like cramps and went into l&d turned out was in pre term labor at week 29 and again at week 33. They had to stop my contractions both times. I am now 39+5 days. Just pay close attention to the cramps.
Avatar f tn Has anyone had menstrual like cramping in the third trimester? Could the pain be related to dilating? I have had constant cramps every day this week and so tired of it.
Avatar n tn I am 37 weeks and 6 days and im having really bad menstrual cramps . What should i do ?
Avatar f tn I am 4 1/2 weeks pregnant with my 3rd child and have been experiencing what feels like menstrual cramps. It's to the point where I want to pop some Tylenol! Is this normal?
Avatar f tn Im having lower back pains they feel like menstrual cramps that won't go away I tried a warm bath Tylenol and to relax and it just won't go away its on my right side of my lower back....
Avatar f tn I was having bad menstrual cramps and took too much Tylenol. I believe I took 6,000 mg in 24 hours. Now I'm looking on the internet and totally freaking myself out that I'm going to have liver failure. It's been 48 hours since my last dose. My stomach is queasy, but that could be because I'm so upset. Is 6,000 mg spread out over 24 hours enough to cause harm?
1267061 tn?1271122594 I am 34 weeks and have been getting menstrual like cramps around 31 weeks. At 32 weeks they were so bad at one point I called my OB because they were coming quite frequently. I sat down and drank some water and they only came again every now and then. They told me it was just Braxton Hix and nothing to worry about unless they became regular and/or more than four in an hour after I got off my feet. Does your whole belly tighten up when it happens?
