What can I do for strong period cramps?

My period cramps are very very painful this month having to take over the counter meds for pain it worked yesterday until it wore off. And this morning waking up early to pain, the meds are not working. What do you do for the cramps?

Heating pad, rest and Tylenol or Motrin

Heating pad and Tylenol every 4 hours

I Icyhot and those sticky heat patches directly to skin.

If you are resting/lying down or trying to sleep, concentrate on relaxing your muscles & not fighting the cramp. It will pass
