Menstrual Cramps
Posted: 05-10-07 11:25am

Have you experience menstrual cramps? Or you can say that you always experiencing this every month?!

For me, every month I am experiencing cramps. And it is really so painful that I sometimes couldn’t do anything for a whole day…That I sometimes fill like I’m going to vomit. Then a friend of mine tells me to take medications, but I just can’t take those, for medications to me are not good. They gave me stomach upsets that make me feel bad. So what I did to relive the pain is that I use Natural Remedy like the Peppermint. And this actually helps in coping the pain caused by my menstruation. Hope this can be a good help for those girls like me who is experiencing this kind of problem.

Have you tried any type of birth control? I used to have very painful, crampy periods. My doctor put me on birth control pills and after that, I rarely ever had another cramp!!

I used to get very severe cramps as well during my period. I did actually vomit from them due to the pain. I could take pamprin however which helped a lot, but it was still debilitating.

I suggest birth control pills for you too. I'm on ortho-lo, and I have almost no cramping anymore! I'm glad the peppermint worked for you, but if you ever want to do more than just "cope", then get on birth control pills Smile
