    Naprogesic (=ingredient Naproxen) is the only medication, that helps us against period pain (and do not even have to take to maximum dose).

    It also inhibits prostaglandin production (which causes the cramping).

    My daughter took this with 13 and 14 due to severe menstruation pain and helped to manage get through the day. Same with me. It really helps.

    I am in Australia and can get it over the counter, no prescribtion needed and not expensive.

    Hope for you too!

    All the best!

    (All other usual over the counter painkillers didn't help at all. (Paracetamol, Ibuprofen, ...) Not even bothering with them anymore for period pain)

    Are you in UK? I suggest 2 paracetamol regularly through the day (up to 8 per day) and a hot water bottle on your tummy. However, I strongly recommend phoning GP surgery for advice as you are young. Hope it feels better soon.

    Try taking pain killers, and see if the doctors can help with anything. Also, try a hot water bottle. Get well soon! <3
