Hello,
What you have described sounds like secondary dysmenorrhea. Secondary dysmenorrhea is due to pelvic inflammatory disease, fibroids, endometriosis (abnormality of lining of uterus), pelvic tumors, and intra uterine device (like copper-T) etc. You should consult gynecologist for internal examination and other test needed to detect its cause. You may need investigations like ultrasound/ CT scan lower abdomen and cervical swabs done.

primary and secondary. The primary dysmenorrhea is seen within 2 years of onset of menstruation and stays for 1 to 2 days of each cycle.

(1) Are PMS and Primary Dysmenorrhea different names for the same condition? They cause lots of the same problems like nausea & vomiting, diarrohea, diziness, fatigue, cramps, headaches and backache.
(2) Does PMS cause stomach cramps by itself or does someone who has PMS and suffers from cramps actually has the cramps because they have Endometriosis or some other condition?
(3) I get very shaky, achy and heavy-feeling legs during bad periods.
do you take oral contraceptives, for example? (assuming it is primary dysmenorrhea and not secondary). Statistics show that contraceptive pills and NSAIDS given to women almost always works for primary dysmenorrhea and when it doesn't, doctors begin looking for other causes making it secondary dysmenorrhea.
Do you use heating pads, warm baths, abdominal massage to help??
Hello. I'm 22 years old and for the last few years (since about 16), I've been getting cycles that last from 3-4 months. During this time the pain is so horrible that I can't even move without screaming. Also, I've been getting blood clots the size of my fist, sometimes larger. I will tell you I'm still a virgin. Plus when my period finally leaves, I still get cramps and bloating that hurt tremendously, and I get full at meals very quickly.
Hello,
If you suffer from dysmenorrhea (painful menses) or irregular menses, yes, the birth control pill can be used to help regulate your menstrual cycle and improve dysmenorrhea. In your case, having had a tubal ligation, the indication would not be for birth control but for the symptoms you describe and that is fine.
I'm not sure what you mean by taking four pills. You should take it as you otherwise would: one pill at the same time each day.

Severe pain before periods or during that time can be due to ovarian cysts, pelvic inflammatory disease, endometriosis, adenomyosis and fibroids. Many women suffer from it. It can be primary or secondary. Secondary dysmenorrhea has an underlying disease, disorder, or structural abnormality either within or outside the uterus. Primary dysmenorrhea is diagnosed when none of these are detected. Dysmenorrhea can exist with excessively heavy blood loss, known as menorrhagia.
My doctor has had me on novamoxin for 13 years (for dysmenorrhea). I recent found out that novamoxin can have permanent effects including inhibiting you from conceiving. Is this true?
When i first got my period it hurt but not that much until the 2nd time and I got really bad dysmenorrhea and then it continued like that almost every month for 9 years now. Once in a while i get normal cramps but most of the time it's dysmenorrhea. Is this normal? Should i go to a doctor?
I considered them severe menstrual cramps. The doc there did CT-scans, X-rays, and a vaginal ultrasound. He told me I have cysts and masses on my ovaries and fibroids in my uterus. I suffer with it for months. I finally,b/c I have no insurance, made an appt with a gynecologist. I brought him all my records from the ER. I explained my symptoms to him he said I have IBS. Without an examination or anything. He referred me to a specialist. I did not keep the appt, remember, I have no insurance.
I had cramps too around the time i should. Have gotten my period. They were just like period cramps but not as intense. They never stucka around too long and i dont get them anymore. You have nothing to worry about!
Hi i have had my period for 5 years now but i can't seem to find a way to get rid of these killer cramps. I have gone to an obgyn but they said there was nothing they could do. I've tried almost every trick in the book and i take 600mg of ibeprofen a day when im on my period. That only takes off the edge but it is still unbearable and i can't focus at school ever. I need help!
