Ladies only: menstrual cramp remedies

courtneyparsons

I have suffered from menstrual cramps since I was ten years old. (Yes, ten.) Mine aren't the regular "I have some slight discomfort so I'll take a midol" kind. They are so severe that the pain makes me shake and vomit. The only remedy that works for me is birth control. However, I hate being tied to a pill. I like to be all natural and seek alternative medicine for everything.

I read that eating clean and exercising can help alleviate some pain. I also read that heat helps relax the muscles. I eat clean and exercise on a regular basis. I also took a bath AND applied a heating pad afterwards, but today I had the worst cramps since I was a teenager. They were causing me to shake and vomit. I am very irritated because I missed a lunch and visiting my friends new baby because of them. I don't want to plan my life around these and I don't want to waste a day in bed every month because of them. Besides going back on the pill, what can I do?

Thanks
