Although i have not been fully diagnosed (awaiting an op date), I sometimes have months where it feels like what i assume is just normal period pain. Im not completely unable to move for a change!- so yes i believe that you can have some periods with less discomfort however as i mentioned, i have not yet had a full diagnose so wouldn't like to advise you incorrectly.

Hope you are well

Take care x
