There are many ways to help stop cramps naturally, a few suggestions...

Diet - diet is the most important factor in dealing with many menstrual problems, a healthy balanced diet can improve issues like cramps. You especially want to make sure you're getting enough essential fatty acids, avoid refined sugars and heavy starches - introducing more fibre such as flax-seed can help a lot too.

Suppliments - take a good multi-vitamin to make sure your body is getting everything it needs, also increase your intake of vitamins C, B6 and E. Also remember your body needs additional magnesium, calcium, iron and potassium during menstruation. Cell salts can also act like natural painkillers, take several times per day during menstruation.

Herbal - taking herbal treatments like chaste tree or evening primrose oil daily will help to regulate hormones so help prevent cramps, but during menstruation also try herbal teas such as raspberry leaf, chamomile, valerian, and wild strawberry.

Activity - light exercise can ease menstrual cramps, yoga is especially good not just as gentle exercise but also as it stretches your abdomen and helps improve your breathing. Masturbation or sex can help to ease cramps, plus is more enjoyable.

Alternatives - alternatives like chiropractic care or acupressure can help a lot, if not going to a professional consider learning key acupressure points you can stimulate yourself when out of the home to help ease your cramps on the move.

Sanpro - tampons are a major contributing factor to cramps as they tug on vaginal walls and can expand into the cervix, many also believe chemicals in commercial tampons increase cramps. Switch to menstrual cups that can dramatically reduce cramps.

Attitude - if you regard your period as something to dread then you're not going to be very happy during menstruation itself, you're also more likely to tense-up and fight against the process. Change in attitude can have a huge difference on menstruation.
