Kind of pain: the cramps (spasmodic dysmenorrhoea)

        KIND OF PAIN: THE CRAMPS (SPASMODIC DYSMENORRHOEA)
Before you can sort out which treatments will suit you best, you must first discover which kind of period pain you suffer from: spasmodic or congestive dysmenorrhoea. Like so many medical terms, they are rather a mouthful. I prefer to call them 'the cramps' and 'the aching miseries'. They're horrible whatever you call them.
THE CRAMPS (SPASMODIC DYSMENORRHOEA)-These are very severe, griping, cramping pains in the lower part of your abdomen which start either just before your period or immediately it begins. They can last anything from half a day to five days and they often seem to be one long continuous pain. Many women just have to lie down because they're in too much pain to do anything else. Some faint; some feel very sick; some actually vomit; some crawl through the day, just enduring. The majority of sufferers are young girls, although I've met older sufferers too. The pain can be cured, or at least diminished, by the birth of a first baby although, as many women have already found, this isn't always so.
Women who've had the cramps and then later had a baby will tell you that the cramps and labour pains are very similar. I have met several who said that, of the two, the labour pains were much the easier to bear, especially in the first stages of the birth. At least there's some point to that pain. You can ride it, and use it, and there's a baby at the end. One of the real miseries of period pain is that you know you're going to have to endure it every month —month after month after month. It's the relentless regularity that wears you down. Fortunately this is the kind of period pain that can be most easily helped by deliberate relaxation.
