I personally don’t think we’re being “dramatic” enough on our periods. I’ve fainted 2x and still have to live thru life. Legit I feel as though I’m about to die. I want to kick every man I come across in the stomach. We should be allowed to scream (I do).

Yes. I’m physically disabled, have stage 2 endo, and PCOS. But passing out isn’t just pain, that’s something you need to bring up and have testing done with

i’ve had testing done and they’ve said nothing unusual. my mom had a total hysterectomy due to endo so they’ve “been on high alert”. their explanation is that i have a low pain threshold (untrue). idk mane. i still think we should be allowed to scream
