Need advice for at home remedies for pain during your period

Kristen • Happily married to my junior high sweet heart. My family and pets are my life.
What are some at home remedies that you use while you're on your period? 
Hoping for suggestions to help deal with pain instead of taking lots of pain pills. The first 2 days are always the worst. Avoiding caffeine, drinking lots of water and laying with a heating pad often helps. I'm open to try anything. Thank you.
