Brief Answer:
Take mefenamic acid

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I can understand your concerns.

The painful periods can have many reasons from fibroid, to stress.

I will advise you to get a sonography to start with.

You can take tablet mefenamic acid if and when you have pain. It is very effective and has no side effects usually.

Regards,

Dr Som
