I’m not sure about normal circumstances but mine are debilitating and I dread it every month it’s a continuous suffering cycle

I am having such a painful period rn as we speak. My cramps often time are so painful that I’m unable to walk or drive, there have been times when I’m actively driving when cramps set it in and I literally have to put my hazards on and sit there bc my body will not push the gas or break bc it’s in so much pain. Rn my cramps aren’t that bad, but I’m dealing with severe back pain. Feels like my back is strained in multiple places it hurts so bad

The world would be ending as an explosion went off in my uterus. Stopped the periods because of that

I might have endometriosis, it’s a genetic condition that runs in the family but regardless of that my doctors refuse to perform an endoscopy to see if I have the condition. A condition that could be making me go infertile rn
