As for me, after realizing that i have severe cramps during my menstruation, i decided to refrain from cold/iced drinks. Of course, it takes determination to do so in a long run. You don't see the effect in the short run but the cramps are lessen after months.

Also, you should try consuming more fish that contains Omega-3 Fatty Acids or just take fish oil as supplement. During my days when i consume these, it seems that my cramps have lessened compared to days before i consumed them.

I have tried Bak Fong pills too and I am not sure how it works for my body but my menstrual period has been regulated because of Bak Fong pills. I guess it works to regulate your menstrual period if you have irregular menstrual period.

As for Panadol pink pill, i took it only when my cramps are pretty severe. For the moment, Panadol pink pill works for me the best.

Oh and i realized that when the girls start to have menstrual cycle, they don't feel like eating and the cramps will only make it worsen. At least consume something , any hot drinks will do to soothe your pain. It will only worsen the pain if you don't eat something.

That's all i feel like sharing, according to my experiences.

No problem, bbblue90!

i have read some articles that some supplements such as Vitamins B1 or E will help to relief cramps during menstrual cycle. Thou, I have not personally consuming either of them so it's hard for me to tell the effectiveness.

And Happy New Year to you too!

After taking the pills, my body starts to feel tired and sour too but i guess it's normal
You should rest though, get enough sleep and the pain will fades away
