Hello Dr McCombs
I am just wondering about pain killers. Every month I have terrible period pain which can be unbearable. I have tried to not take pain killers and just use heat packs but it can get so bad I need morphine if I leave it too long. I have tried ibuprofen, codeine, and Salicin (White willow bark extract)to relieve pain. They do offer some relief but they upset my gut with extreme bloating, constipation, or diarrhea, and I just feel fatigued and gross. I have tried evening primrose oil but I don't tolerate it. I don't know what to do anymore.
Do you know of something that can offer pain relief that doesn't upset the gut?
I have read Phenylalanine can help? what are your thoughts?
I want to smoke marijuana during those times but my partner won't let me, so that isn't an option!
Thanks heaps.

This is a reply to # 2,222,542Hormone tests have confirmed Estrogen Dominance and Adrenal fatigue. The only medication I take is during the most painful days of my period. Other then that I try to stay as natural as possible. I have completed your plan twice 3 years ago with good outcomes, a series of liver flushes, and am strictly following the GAPS protocol. I take a large range of supplements for vitamin and minerals (to support my adrenals).
I do have a history of trauma and stress in my childhood and adolescence. And I do have moments of stress now as I am trying to complete a PhD and care for my partner who has Chronic Fatigue.
I understand current stress is not helping, so I am trying to relax as much as I can. One stress is certainly my period, I dread it coming because of the pain and then the side effects of the medication.
Thank you Jeff :)

This is a reply to # 2,222,815How many proven studies do we have to trot out to get rid of the ridiculous beliefs of some people - even practitioners Dr. Jeff!! - that menstrual pain has anything to do with "it's in your head" or past emotional trauma?
What century do you live in?
The levels of specific pain mediating body chemicals has been proven to be different in women who suffer from menstrual pain from those who don't. Specific. Body. Chemicals. Scientific blood tests. Not mumbo jumbo emotional fairy tales.
If someone had a genetic difference in those body chemical levels that made their finger hurt at a higher level if you hit it with a hammer, more than the finger pain of someone who has normal levels of those body chemicals, would you say the first person has "emotional" issues? Insane.
"emotional freedom technique" - what a crock.

I will look into that product. I have done some trauma release in the past, but I think it is wise if I revisit it now. I have also recently bought a TENS (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation) machine but haven't tried it yet. I thought if it works it will help with the pin while I get my body into balance. And get me off medication which continues to put me off balance.

This is a reply to # 2,221,823I am not a doctor and I don't want you to take any drugs without your doctor's acceptance. However my wife usually takes Buffering 81mg when she has Menstrual pain. Here is a review about the drug https ://www.rxstars.net/bufferin-reviews-use-fastest-pain-relieved-found/ for her it seems to work but I say again that ask your doctor in the first place
