Anyone have home remedies to cure menstral cramps? Mine are killing me, I want to die.

I get real bad cramps too. What i found works is applying some heat. It helps the muscles to relax. I have one of those bags they sell at the kiosks that have herbs in them. i put it in the microwave til it's hot and set in directly on the skin over my belly. take a bit for the heat to soak in, but that's what makes mine tolerable.

Heating pad on your stomach and ginger ale.

That's if I forget to pop a tummy pill.

0o0 I was gonna say the same thing hot compress really hepls specially if you lay down on youre side and put the heating pad or hot waterbag between you and a pillow with one let hugging the pillow you'll be relieved in no time.. You can do that sitting down to0o just hug the pillow to press in the heat

Ugh. I feel worse!
I'm sitting here in a freezing apartment, no pants, and a snapple bottle filled with hot water wrapped in a towel laying on my crotch.

I can feel the muscles in there spazzing out, it's really painful.

Just try the things we've mentioned.

No, I mean, I did, and it's making me feel worse.

yeah I've got a blanket around me...
This is pissing me off.
I've taken Midol, I'm doing the heat thing.

I don't have any ginger ale or I'd try that too.

If you have a bath tub you can try that. i wouldn't know because well i don't have those parts but just trying to help... a shower could also work since it's an apartment the hot/warm water should never run out
