Calling all girls. Please help me 🩸

Glad they have calmed. Hoping you’ll also not experience them this bad frequently. If it’s new for you, and you’ve been menstruating for some time it’s worth talking to your Gynecologist just to be sure you’re not missing anything. In my experience I have had sporadic severe cramps and sporadic heavy flows. But no diagnosis of any kind, considered healthy other than maybe you have endometriosis but I don’t know if that theory holds up given how sporadic it is for me. All this to say, it may not mean anything bad or that something is wrong but keep an eye on it / run it by your doc.

I’m so sorry that isn’t funny at all! I’ve struggled with horrible cramps too, sometimes they make me just lay down on the floor in my shower and I’ve actually vomited a few times because they’ve been so bad. What “works” for me (at least removes the worst of the pain) is combining ibuprofen and paracetamol. Hope you are feeling better soon! 😕

I’m having horrible cramps right now so I can totally relate, I don’t know if it works for everyone but I like putting on multiple clothes to keep warm and maybe a heating pad if it helps. If you have any painkillers, take them. Drink warm water, cold ones will just make it worse and some tea or soup. I like to put on multiple layers of pads and just lay down in bed until the pain goes away. If it gets even worse, consider calling your doctor.
