The TIPS thread is locked, so I can't
actually post to it, but here's my help!
Treatment For:
Painful Menstruation-
Immediate treatment: Pamprin, hot pad (on
high!), and lying flat on your back.
Curling up actually intensifies the
cramps. This treatment may take up to an
hour to be effective, and pamprin may have
to be taken every few hours to keep the
pain away. Remove any tampons and use pads
instead. Tampons can increase the pain of
cramps.
Long-term treatment: Getting on a form of
hormonal birth control. It's long proven
that hormonal birth control can relieve
even the worst cramps and take them from
debilitating to bearable, even nearly
unnoticable!

My tips: chocolate ice cream!!
And really, the hot pad is a good one. Or
a nice hot bath. Muscle relaxants.
Get on birth control so you don't have to
deal with it!
