I get what I'm fairly sure is endo pain for the first few days of my period every month. I have had a scan and nothing was found but the symptoms all fit and I'm not inclined to bother my GP for further investigations just atm, the pain is usually manageable and it's only 2-3 days a month.
I tend to take ibuprofen at the first twinge and then paracetamol on top if the pain gets intense before the ibuprofen have kicked in but that's still leaving me in really quite extreme pain for 20-30 minutes until they start to work. I'm taking both at the same time this month and taking the next dose as soon as it's due rather than waiting for the pain to come back but I'm still getting that window where I'm in agony.
Just wondering if there's anything better I could try OTC really, I know it will disappear again in a day or two so it could be a lot worse but I'm just struggling with the level of pain.
