Mine's weird. It carries on for about 3 days, then stops or nearly stops for a day, then the pains suddenly start again and it comes back the next day for another 2 or 3 days. Fecking weird. Currently craving chocolate and settled for fruit because I'm fat enough already
Sympathy and empathy, OP! |

Hope you feel better soon! I suffer with mine but have been recommended a book called ‘period power’ by Maisie hill. It’s a really interesting read & I found it useful |

Sending hugs, I had a coil fitted after cauterusation last Jan and just get the spots and a bit moody now but thankfully nothing else!
After my whole adult life being ruled by my cycle, its just such a relief xx |

I refused for years, citing the idea of having more hormones pinging around my body as a big problem!
Until I got an informed explabation from my new gynie, who explained that the hormone release from the coil is much less, because its directed to where it needs to be so localised, unlike the pill etc which has to find its way via the bloodstream?
Anyway, its been lifechanging.
No more days off, embarrassing leaks etc |

"I want to cry, scream, throw up, poop and sleep all simultaneously "
This is hurting my soul! So relatable! Expect with my also add in “fuck” because I get super horny too, but I don’t want anyone to touch me x |

"Naproxen is the best if you are able to take it. Mines been every 2 weeks the last few months and so heavy. Generally I don't even need to use a liner so I'm finding it so hard to deal with "
Have you seen a doc?
Please go. |

Ahh that sounds horrible! Luckily I'm feeling too sick to eat so don't have to worry about battling cravings  |

That stuff is lethal! I remember taking it when I had a kidney infection and I felt like I was laying on clouds hahaha |

Ahh no not for me thanks, I feel so disgusting at the moment! In the few days before I started I was a randy little thing though
Although a belly rub does sound nice right now... |

I used to suffer really badly - fainting, sickness, fatigue, even crashed into a stationary bus once due to dead legs. I had endometriosis, andenomyosis & fibroids. Years of vile gynaes bit believing me didn’t help. Finally had a total hysterectomy last year & it was life changing! My poor kids missed out on so much because of me being ill for 7 days every 4 weeks.
Can you have a nice bath to relax? xxx
