Suggest Treatment For Heavy Vaginal Bleeding And Abdominal Cramps During Menstruation

Well, I am in the middle of my period and have three more days to go. I started the pill last month because of abnormally heavy periods and horrible cramping. This month, the cramps seem to be worse and the bleeding stops, the cramping begins and then heavy bleeding for four hours or so and then nothing for a couple of hours and then cramping again an the cycle starts all over. The cramps are so bad that they have been making me sick. What can I do?

Hi..Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern...

First of all you are having a long & painful period , this is known as dysmenorrhea. You can take anti-inflammatory medicines like Tranexamic acid tablet for painful periods. It will reduce the length of periods & also reduce the pain or cramps during the period
You should exercise daily, this will reduce the pain during periods in long run. Take a healthy diet full of vitamins & minerals. you could also take diet supplements consisting of omega 3 fatty acids, vitamin e , etc. You should also increase intake of water.

You should also continue taking pill as they will reduce painful cramps & heavy flow in long run.
Consult a gynaecologist, if problem persists or worsen.

Hoping your query is solved
Good luck
