Missed period, increased pain?

Hi everyone, I'm having a bad month, honestly saw it coming because last month I had only a 2 day period and then 9 days of spotting plus some spotting at ovulation. That doesn't usually happen unless I'm going to miss a period the month after or I'm pregnant. Just to clarify, I'm 100000000% not pregnant, husband has had a vasectomy and I've done a test lol. So I know it's the endo having a laugh at me.

Anyway, I'm finding some increase in pain with my lower back, thighs, pelvis and nasty period cramping :( also feel drained like I would if I was on, having pain when I pee and poo, all the other usual period misery...no period. Ugh. Its making me miserable! I don't know if my body is telling me I will eventually come on (7 days late today) or its just bad because I've missed one totally 😭 either way I'm not a happy bunny currently! Anyone else feel this way if they are excessively late or full miss a period? Been over a year since I missed a period, a day or two early/late was manageable but going back to missing them totally is driving me insane lol I feel like a zombie 🧟‍♀️ brain fog is so strong I was trying to put my coffee granules in the fridge and when I finally managed to do that part I literally took the milk out, put it back without using it and shut the fridge 🤭🤦‍♀️

Just needed a rant so thanks for anyone who actually read all this! It's been an awful week in so many ways and honestly I just want to go find a cupboard and scream inside there for a while 😤 🙇‍♀️🧟‍♀️💆‍♀️endo sucks!

Hi you are right endo totally sucks. I don’t have missed periods but a constant period before i went onto decepeptyl injections.Do you take any medication for when you feel really bad?

Sorry can’t offer much advice, when I am in a flare i usually load up on tramadol.

Endo definitely sucks! I have started to have 1 day periods (2 weeks of pain) then 3 weeks later an actual period which lasts up to 7 days (another 2/3 weeks of pain. Nightmare. Endocrinology think omeprazole/domperidone/metoclopramide might be causing irregular periods. If not that I guess I have a sex hormone imbalance (which can't be tested because I'm on the pill). Just joyous! I'm currently waiting for the "proper" period after a one day bleed.

Just wanted to say I totally feel your pain!!
