Really bad menstrual pain

i used to have that trouble.. i would feel so bad i would want to vomit, cry, pass out.. it was the most tremendous pain i had ever expereineces.. I went to my doctor about it and she put me straight on the pill, after about 4 months the pain went away, plus cleared up my skin..

Although this could be something serious, its most likely not.
I used to be the same way , intense pain & I would faint every time. It was disrupting my life. My flow was also very heavy.(Which in turn losing all that blood made me extremely anemic)
So after talking to my doctor about it & trying a few other things (medication that was supposed to help decrease the intense uterine contractions) I went on the depo-shot, to stop my periods. I know most people on here frown on depo but it literally saved my life. Its an option for u if ur period keeps disrupting ur life.

I think your pain is normal but to be certain, I suggest you consult your GYN. Every woman (of child bearing age) suffers cramping, headaches, and mood swings especially on the first two days of their period ranging from mild to severe. I also think every one handles pain differently. It sounds as though you have a low tolerance. Again, consult your GYN and hopefully he/she can better direct you.

That much discomfort is not normal. There may be an underlying cause. You need to see you gyn. for a thorough check up to rule out inflammation or cyst. He/she might also consider prescribing something for you to alleviate the discomfort.
