Dysmenorrhea (Period Pain)
Discover the facts no one told you about your body. Break the myths surrounding menstrual ache and learn the shocking reality of the period pain epidemic.
Period pain has a medical name. What most people call "cramps" is actually a medical condition called dysmenorrhea.
The average women with severe, undiagnosed period pain can lose over 10 days of work or school each year.
Medical professionals have noted that for some, the intensity of period pain can be comparable to that of a heart attack.
On average, women with endometriosis, a common cause of severe period pain, wait 7-10 years for a diagnosis. This delay is often due to the normalisation of period pain.
Conditions like adenomyosis are often overlooked due to normalisation of period pain.
Living with severe monthly pain can take a serious toll on mental health, creating a vicious cycle of stress, anxiety, and depression.
It's not just in your head. Severe period pain is often caused by an excess of prostaglandins, which make uterine muscles contract, causing debilitating pain.
Severe backache, digestive issues, or pain during sex around your period are major red flags for conditions like endometriosis or PCOS, and they are not normal.
Your intense period pain could be a symptom of an underlying condition like Endometriosis, PCOS, or Fibroids. These are real medical issues, not just "bad cramps".
