Less pain during period?

[Theodora2016]

Does anyone have less pain during their period than during the rest of the month? Mine used to be really painful but now the mid month pain and week before are worse than the actual event!

I do! The doctors always look at me like I'm crazy when I say it 🙄 wish I knew why though 🤔

Yes I do too. Someone explained to me that the pain is the endometrial tissue growing which is why it’s not as bad during your period when it’s shedding x

Yes I do too. I don’t know about your pain but mine are different.

The pain when I’m on my period is a gnawing , dull painful ache ( obviously as we know hurts like hell - that makes it sound like some flimsy period pain ) but outside of my period it’s a sharp shooting pain right through my whole ‘area’ , thankfully it’s not as long lasting as the pain is when I’m on a period because they are really intense shooting pains x
