Treatment for dysmenorrhea may depend on the extent of your symptoms and if you have primary or secondary dysmenorrhea.  In some cases, self-care measures may help relieve your symptoms.  You may want to try placing a heating pad on your abdomen or soaking in a hot bath.  It is important to get plenty of rest and relaxation.  Regular exercise is helpful to release endorphins, your body’s natural painkillers.  It may be helpful to participate in stress-relieving activities, such as massage or yoga.  Vitamins B-6, calcium, and magnesium may help prevent pain associated with PMS.  In 1998 the National Institutes of Health issued a statement that acupuncture may help relieve menstrual pain.

Over-the-counter nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) including, aspirin, ibuprofen, or naproxen, may help relieve pain.  Your doctor may prescribe low dose birth control pills for 6 to 12 months to help reduce the production of prostaglandins.

Treatment for the underlying cause of secondary dysmenorrhea depends on the type of condition or disease.  Cysts, polyps, fibroids, and endometriosis may be removed with surgery.  Antibiotics are used to treat sexually transmitted diseases.  An IUD may be removed if it is causing pain.
