Avatar f tn I have horrible menstrual cramps and the only relief i have found is ibuprofen, naproxen etc (Nsaids) but now i have developed stomach ulcers and gastro infections from it. So i I started taking paracetamol, and pretty high doses. But its not working. At all. What can i take for my cramps that works but are not nsaids? Not taking anything is not an option as I litterary wont be able to stand upright from cramps. I do take 80mg nexium a day. Thanks in advance for any help!
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?
1794671 tn?1338795391 I am 32 weeks pregnant give or take (don't know my last menstrual), and I am having sharp pain in my right buttock that goes into my right leg. Then I think from sleeping wrong I started having really bad cramp-like pain in my left lower back region and it is going all arond my side to my lower abdomen and into my leg. It is really bad I am already taking 6 Norco for neuropathy and I can't take anymore.. I mean I can but I don't feel right.
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.
Avatar n tn Why would you need to take anything along with Advil? It is so safe it is sold over the counter like aspirin. Are you taking a lot of other drugs for something else? Even so, it's unusual for ibuprophen (Advil or Nuprin's generic name) to be contra-indicated with other medications. In fact, it is often prescribed with other things. Ibuprophen is an anti-prostaglandin and relieves muscle cramping. It only takes one or two (standard dose) to relieve menstrual cramps.
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?
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 f tn Hello everyone! I have a question about menstrual cramps, and any help would be appreciated. I have been suffering extremely painful cramps for years now, ever since I got my first period when I was 13. I'm currently 18 and am going off to college very soon, but I have no idea how to deal with these cramps that incapacitate me for an entire day. My cramps get so bad that I usually faint. For example, when I was around 14 my period came in the morning but I still went to school.
Avatar f tn I'm 20 weeks. And these past couple of days I've been getting menstrual cramps and some type of pain (feels like needles poking me) inside my vagina and lower back pain. Should I be worried? I had an appt today but it was so quick like 5 min. He didn't even measure her. I'm switching to a midwife. It's a bearable pain but I just want to be sure its nothing.
Avatar f tn m 40 years old, and judging by my older sisters and mother, I likely have another 11-12 years before menopause. Over the last year or two, my menstrual cramps have gotten much worse. I get chills and shakes, aches in my joints, nausea, headache, and massive cramps. I've tried heating pads, lots of fluids, bed rest, Aleve, and other OTC pain relief. I went to see a new midwife for my last annual about 18 mo ago and forgot to mention it to her, then felt embarrassed to call in about it.
1161702 tn?1277413731 I have been going through this since I was 12 and I'm 18 now. That is way too long for me. When I get my monthly menstrual, like on the second day I get really sick and vomit a lot. I have really bad cramps too...After the second day of my menstrual with the vomitting and stuff, I'm usually pretty okay. But my cramps last just about my whole period, my period is 7 days and I cramp for like 4/5 days striaght.
1577200 tn?1331725719 maybe sound crazy but I have an odd-ball question concerning menstrual cramps and how they compare to it?
Avatar f tn Baths and yoga! Really just some time, even just ten minutes, alone, in silence to just breath deeply and hince, relax.
Avatar n tn pulling and tugging in my lower abdomen, cramps (menstrual type), and bloating. I got my first u/s at 5 wks/3days and the doctors saw one sac, but there was nothing visible. Is this normal? I still feel very pregnant. I’ve had not spotting or morning sickness at this point. When should I schedule my next u/s?
Avatar f tn Going on my third day of a lower backache that comes and goes and menstrual like cramps with my braxton hicks. Did anyone else feel like this and how long before you went into labor? I've been 1 cm dilated and 25% effaced since 36 weeks, Dr appt today to see if I've progressed any! TIA! No other noticeable symptoms other than a little increase in vaginal discharge.
Avatar f tn Hello. I'm 22 years old and for the last few years (since about 16), I've been getting cycles that last from 3-4 months. During this time the pain is so horrible that I can't even move without screaming. Also, I've been getting blood clots the size of my fist, sometimes larger. I will tell you I'm still a virgin. Plus when my period finally leaves, I still get cramps and bloating that hurt tremendously, and I get full at meals very quickly.
Avatar f tn I have been having menstrual like cramps for over an hour. They arent getting worse just dull and annoying. Has anyone else had this problem?
