You may have endometriosis.  You need to see a GYN.  If you need to have a laprascope to find out if you have endo then have it.  Endo causes a great deal of period pain.  I know I had it.  I went years without knowing what was wrong. They first put me on the pill and that worked for awhile but unknowingly the endo got much worse.  You can check out endo on webmd or anyother medical site.  Please check it out.  Pain with periods is NOT normal.  We have been taught to believe that and it is not true.  Don't settle girl, get help.  In the meantime, try heat, elevate your legs or curl up like a baby, do not take aspirin, sometimes having sex before your period helps (don't know why, but it does), pain medication was a must before I had my surgery to get rid of the endo and then medication after surgery to try to make sure it didn't come back.   Good luck

Actually, for me it's a lot more simple than anything like prescription pain medication.  All I do is go to my local Herb Store, there you will find these tablets that dissolve under your tongue.  There is one that will either be labeled PMS or Cramps.  They work wonders.  I've had Endometriosis for 6 years, and that's the ONLY thing that will help me other than Magnesium tablets.  They are supposed to be a natural muscle relaxer.  Just be careful, the magnesium will make the IBS symptoms that the endometriosis causes worse.  Hope you feel better!

Go to a Dr for their opinion if the cramping you are experienceing is considered "normal". Once other problems of fibroids etc are eliminated then take into consideration your diet, exercise and stress which all contribute to cramps. Chiropractic care is another option to be considered as well as alignment of the spine can contribute to your problem. Other options are look into various teas available to drink that are thought to help in this area.

Since you are having pain plus the unusual period you need to call your doc and let him know.  His nurse will call you back and tell you what he wants you to regarding this.

If you don't have an STD, there's a chance you are experiencing dyspareunia, that is, a condition in which women experience pain during sexual intercourse. it's a rather common condition, and easily tratable. If you went to the doctor and there's no medical reason for your pain, it would be a good idea to talk to a psychologist or a psychiatrist, or some counselor with GOOD sexual education experience. Usually fears and embarrasment makes us feel pain when we shouldn't. Or maybe, you had some bad sexual experience before, and you're afraid to experience that again.\n\nDon't worry, with some professional help, you'll solve it in no time.

Sounds like it could be serious and you should go to the doctor.  For the mean time, take Excedrin Migraine when you feel the migraine coming on, be prepared ahead of time, so you can take it before it turns into a migraine or it won't work.  If relief items such as Midol don't work, have you tried taking it before your pain comes on like you would the Migraine meds?  Sometimes taking birth control pills can help as well as anti-inflammatory, and muscle relaxors (but be careful, can be addictive).  Also eating right can factor in and maybe regular stretching could help.  You can try going to a sports medicine shop and buying a hard foam roll; you lay down on it and just breath, real easy; it stretches the area in between your shoulder blades and works great for upper back pain/tightness.  Ask them how to use it and the various ways it can be used and it's also inexpensive.  Sometimes lying down on your back and having somthing underneath your knees (and ankles equally) about the same height as your thigh can releive pain and pressure.  \nTips on controlling PMS (if that's what you have):\n~Eat complex carbohydrates (such as whole grain breads, pasta and cereals), fiber and protein. \n~Cut back on sugar and fat. \n~Avoid salt for the last few days before your period to reduce bloating and fluid retention. \n~Cut back on caffeine to feel less tense and irritable and to ease breast soreness. \n~Cut out alcohol. Drinking it before your period can make you feel more depressed. \n~Try eating up to 6 small meals a day instead of 3 larger ones. \nGet aerobic exercise. Work up to 30 minutes, 4 to 6 times a week. \n~Get plenty of sleep--about 8 hours a night. \n~Keep to a regular schedule of meals, bedtime and exercise. \n~Try to schedule stressful events for the week after your period. \n~Taking calcium pills may reduce symptoms of water retention, cramps and back pain. Taking about 1,000 mg of calcium a day probably won't be harmful, especially because calcium has so many other benefits, such as being good for your bones, but note that the body can only absorb 500 mg of calcium at a time so take it at separate times in the day.

I don't think this is something you should just learn to live with. I highly recommend making an appointment with your doctor and go over different medications for you. You need to keep an open mind.\nPain pills often do have side effects, but surely there is something else you can take that won't cause your pain to be unbearable.

Take some midol, wear a pad because tampons make cramps worse and get one of those heating pads to put on your back or stomach whichever hurts more.

You need to see a dr. It's not embarrassing. You're not the first person to ever have the problem. It may require surgery, but afterward, you'll be much happier.

you need to talk to your Dr. about this!  Maybe its as simple as being put on birth control (which help a lot of people with painful cramps) but it could be something else-- who knows??\n\nAlso exercise is supposed to help- try to do a 30minute walk every day you have them- or even if you know when you will get your period (if you are regular) start the day BEFORE you get it\n\nbut definately ask your Dr.\n\nMine get pretty bad on the first day- I take 3 200mg advil and buy those sticky heat pads- and that usually really helps, but I guess everyone is different

I have had painful sex all my life.  I finally was diagnosed with something called Vestibulitis.  There is a  topical treatment available, but you have to get a prescription from a doctor.  Your pain could be caused by that.

You don't say how old you are and that might affect how your periods are.\n\nOne thing that helps with cramps is to give up caffiene.  No coffee, tea, caffienated sodas and you might have a much easier time.\n\nThere are over the counter meds that work well--Pamprin works pretty well--and your doctor can prescribe stronger medications.  In some cases, birth control pills are prescribed to manage menstrual pain.\n\nOther things you can do?  Use a heating pad (or one of those heating bandages that are out now), gentle exercise such as stretching or walking, and if you're of age a shot of brandy or some other liquor works pretty well.\n\nGood luck.  (You have my sympathies)

Be honest ask for other options.  Be willing to try a multi facited approach to pain.  Meds are only part of the long term solution.  A second opinion might be uselful

I am very sorry to hear you have endometriois. I was diagnosed with it when I was 16. I am now 24 and let me tell you, its not the most fun thing to deal with. Periods for me are very painful every month, I have pelvic pain also associtated with this now. The other people who answered were right, there is no cure, and you do have a timeline of if and when you can get pregnant. At 24 my timeline has passed, and I will never be able to bear my own children. Every case of endometriosis is different. You really shouldn't stress out over it. When you see your Dr. make sure to ask him/her ALL the questions you have. When I was first diagnosed they put me on birth control, pain pills, hormomones and testerone. But like I said it effects everyone differently. I wish you the best of luck and hope you get to feeling better soon. I sincerely feel for you.

first and foremost i need to tell you to see your doctor cause it can always be something serious. If it is menstrual pains take pamprin(it works well)if it is bowel related(are your movements normal)take a stool softener and see it that helps things along a bit. If its not either of the two mentioned see your doc, it could be your appendix or gall bladder, which may need medicine or surgery to fix. Good luck!!!Feel better soon.

DRs will advise you to go on birth control to help with severe cramps, but make sure they check you out for Endometriosis first.\n\nFor my cramps I take a warm bath and use a heating pad. \nAnd I take extra strength tylenol sometimes. I'm not a big pill popper, but have on occasion taken a pain killer prescribed by my Doc when the cramps were so bad I couldn't walk.\n\nHydrating yourself is a good idea since muscle cramping can be worse when muscles aren't properly hydrated\nand exercising can help a great deal...assuming the cramps aren't so bad that you can't walk straight.

try man on top and tell him to go slow! when it hurts, speak up. \n\ndo you use tampons? probably not. they hurt first couple times. Try using tampons on your next period. \ni know this is different but they are related. in the shower you may want to practice "that" feeling and insert your index finger as far in your tunnel as you can. it hurts but it will help you prepare better. \n\nrelax and go with the flow. when you tense up every muscle tenses up include down-there muscles. Always remember to speak up b/c good communication is essencial!!! :)\n\nI'm still a virgin but know alot about sex, wierd? dont worry- waiting until marriage.....
