Answers:
For the cramping, try an anti-prostaglandin like Aleve/Naproxen, Motrin/Ibuprofen, both are anti-prostaglandins that "shut down" the prostaglandins that cause painful cramps!. Tylenol/Acetaminophen generally isn't all that effective at getting rid of cramps and ironically that is the active ingredient in Midol and Pamprin (except for Pamprin Max)!. A heating pad or a hot water bottle is really helpful too!. When I was your age, I had the same problem with the leaking!.!.!.my solution was to wear an ultra-thin overnight pad with wings as normal, and then put another one on the back of my panties where I was leaking!.!.!.I didn't have another leak after that!. I wouldn't try Tampons at night if you sleep more than eight hours, but for during the day I highly recommend them! A good one to start with would be Tampax Pearl lights--they are easy to insert and once you get the hang of it you will never want to go back to pads!. I feel so much cleaner and don't worry about leaking with them!. Good luck!.!.!.and if you have any questions, feel free to e-mail me!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I used to use pads, but since im always moving, i wear tampons!. you rarely get any leaks or stains on clothes!. i started wearing tampons when i was 14 (currently 23), and they've always worked for me!. if you have a heavy flow, just get the heavy tampons! good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com
