Hi. I am new here and I would like to ask for some suggestions? See, I suffer from very painful PMS. I've read from somewhere that strrong pain relievers like ultram, vicodin can be used to treat PMS pain. Have you ladies ever heard of this or tried it? Thanks for your help.

Ultram is a great pain pill. It's supposed to be non narcotic. I have never tried taking it in the day time. I take it before bed when my back is hurting so much that I can't sleep because it's painful to lay down. It does make me sleepy.

Vicodin causes constipation and I don't need any more of that!

I take 3 Aleve pills and have even taken DS Anaprox(aleve) from doctor. Ds is actually 4X ovc aleve, double perscription strength. It worked amazingly well. Im not promoting large doses of ovc drugs , just sharing my experiences. Now I do take Aleve, today actually, for pms. 4 hours of relief, give or take an hour. I know this can be debilitating, at least for me it can be, and I hope you find a good med :crying:

I suffered for years with terrible cramps and then my doctor prescribed me Naproxen 500 mg and let me tell you, it is a lifesaver! I literally could not function and missed many school and work days. Now I pop a pill and I am off. It lasts usually 3-4 hours and then I pop another one. It has been a god send for me! Good luck and I hope you find something!
