womenly problems....?

Question:

why do i get such awful cramps in my stomach, as well as strange parts of my body such as pain in my foot, my fingers, legs, etc, during my menstrual cycle?

i am even taking birth control pills (for my acne), and altho the cramps are less than usual, they are still fairly uncomfortable :(

Answers:
Sorry, i don't know WHY some people get them; I get cramps as well; really bad, like, I'm practically passing out. Taking the Pill isn't such a good idea from what I've heard. What really works for me (when I take it, I have practically no pain whatsoever) is either taking a teaspoon of flaxseed oil each day, or an evening primrose oil capsule twice a day. As well as improving the pain, it really helps with your skin (acne).

Something else to try is avoiding chocolate, chips, and other junk foods for about a week before it all starts.

aches and pains are normal and vary from person to person.

Try a new pill or take period pain tablets such as naprogesic...it really helps!

it is deferred pain, I will usually have a hard time waling if I am having cramps, the pain will go all the way to my knees. I also retain water & have found that if I take a water pill then my joints won't ache.
