I know the feelin,sometimes I get them so bad I cant even straighten out my back.I use midol and lots of it for these cramps.Some ppl get cramps from hell and some ppl dont even get them at all,Do some research on pms and pmdd?i think thats what its called and i think there is treatment for it.good luck

don't worry, you are not abnormal! my friend gets it so bad that she has to stay home from school, she vomits and gets a fever and pains all over. you are *not* alone! if they are that bad you should mention it to your doctor, just to see what s/he says.

ok, for the past 3 years i had no problems w/cramps along w/my time. but starting in june/july of this summer, i started getting MASSIVE cramps. it hurt sooooooooooo bad. on my 3rd day of school i started, and i was in such pain and faint (im pretty sure i was quite pale) that i ended up going home from school, and when i was home i could only lay on my right side. i had to pester to make me an appt for her gynecologist. she made my appt later that day. i went (the appt was for like 2 wks later

) and the doc gave me prescription strength midol type of meds. last time of the month, they helped tremendously! i was in no pain, and my doc put me on bcp. id suggest goin to the doc and talkin to them about what u could do. trust me, its worth it. ok, sry if this is tmi or i rambled off subj, but thats my idea.

hope this helps.

You need to see the doc and get some medication for severe cramps. Women do not need to suffer with severe menstrual cramps and should see the doc for help.
