Im having a painful period today 😔 just sat here thinking to myself what actually causes the pain... ?
For me it feels like the blood clots are trying to squeeze through a tiny hole. That’s how I would describe the pain along with a burning, stinging pain.
Then I thought what if it is literally like contractions because my uterus is cramping up.. So is the pain caused by the bleeding? Like a cut or an open wound? Or is it like muscular spasms? Like labour is when you have contractions?
My mind is wondering away with me tonight 🤣
