I really hate having my period... I once thought of removing my whom because of it.....but my mother was obviously against it. I go through so much pain on my period... The crying ...the lack of sleep...it's just to much to bear at times... The vomitting and dihearra.... I have trouble eating on it.... I just wish periods did not exist... I honestly know some people go through worse ....so am sorry for complaining.... But I have to because it bothers me that I go through so much during those 6 days of my period. I am open to any advice that would help me so feel free to share.... Any other women who go through alot of pain during period? I know women who have no pain what so ever during their period. I use to wish I had their period instead of mine but i came to the conclusion that I got the painful period for a reason... Maybe because god believe that I was capable of handling it.

Six days? Aren't you lucky! Some months I'm in my bleeding phase for THE WHOLE MONTH. Raspberry Leaf Tea will tone the uterus and help with cramps. An ice pack over your uterus will help slow the flow on really heavy days and also help with some pain as well. Traditional Medicinals (I'm not sure if you can get this brand in your country) has a menstrual tea called Healthy Cycle. It helps with pain and bloating and heavy flow too

@Merliva My periods vary a lot. Sometimes i won't have one for a few months and then other times I bleed for a whole month. I've had two day long periods before too. I have a condition that makes too much estrogen in my body. I"m trying to help fix that by going on the ketogenic diet. I used to have really bad and painful periods, but now it's just a lot of bleeding.

@ScribbledAdNauseum Oh well I have those problems also There are days I don't get it for 3 months or two and then it would stay for the whole month but i never bothered to check up on it.... But I thought your period was always on you..... Saying out loud actually sound redulous *laughs* But I don't like hospitals I have this mind set that everything would cure itself...I know it's stupid but it keeps me going

I used to have very painful periods. I had faint twice because of the pain. My mother ended up getting me on birth control pills which have helped very much. I used to have my period for 5 days, but now I only have it for three days.

@Merliva My best friend also said that birth control didn't help her either. The side effects hasn't effected me.

I heard birth control has side effects but since I've started using birth control my period has actually gotten worse which is really terrible for me

Sorry to hear that. Maybe drink some warm water could help ease the pain.
