[Female users]How do u feel when u are on ur period? Do u feel menstrual cramps?

used to be very bad until i was diagnosed with endometriosis and now i'm on a good regimen, continuous birth control so i don't get periods. i still get very emotional though and i do have breakthrough pains and bleeding occasionally.

to everyone in this thread who is suffering with severe pains and emotional issues, please see an obgyn/gyn!

it is very possible you could have pcos, endometriosis, or other issues! continued use of ibuprofen over long periods of time is bad for you. please stay safe and get checked out

just in the first day that is really painful, on the remaining days I just get annoyed and want it to end as quick as possible

I only got cramps during the first day, rest it's normal.

Mine are pretty painful and I feel really sick for the first two days.

Massive Headache

honestly I barely care about the pain...

it is the intensity I really don't think it's normal at all

I have been to the doctor 3 x because of this and it was no use

I was lucky throughout my teens and early 20s that I would only get cramps sometimes which weren't that bad at all. Now that I'm in my late 20s, the cramps are a lot more common and worse. I feel like I'm experiencing period symptoms the way most women describe it now.

I get shitty cramps on the second day, the rest are minimal syptoms
