Now it s to the point where it will continue on for days after my period has ended. Why is that? I have tried taking midol, ibprofen, Advil etc. and nothing helps

Hello,

It is due to hormonal changes and will settle by itself.

As a first line management you can take analgesics like mefenamic acid for pain relief.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
