One easy and quick fix which every one can try for abdominal cramps is to add 5 grams (one teaspoon) of asafoetida powder to 200 ml of warm water (not hot) and drink twice within a lapse of 30 minutes. This herb has the ability to fix cramps in the abdominal and stomach area and gives partial to total relief in many cases. This home remedy is effective, natural and safe so try it next time.

This is one effective way that involves garlic peels. Garlic has been known to have many beneficial properties. It also can help in alleviating pain and cramps relating to menstrual problems. Peel four to five pieces of garlic and fry them in clarified butter - sounds yummy right? Let them cool and then sprinkle a little bit of sugar on them. Swallow a couple of pieces and wait for 15 minutes to find relief. For more effective relief, swallow another few pieces after a couple of hours.

Another quick fix is to apply heat to the abdomen area for partial relief. You can use a hot water bottle and wrap it in a towel. Apply directly to the affected area for relief.

One cooked banana flower and eaten with curd is a good cure for excessive bleeding during menstruation. This also provides relief from abdominal cramps in certain specific cases so it is worth a try.
