Period pains for 4 days. No period

[mrsneate]

They are so painful, to the point I've been pretty much bed ridden.

I'm 41 and pretty sure I'm pre menopausal as periods are generally all over the place. Some cycles are 20/21 days some are 36-39days. I'm cycle day 23 now and doubled over with stomach cramps. I've taken pain meds. I've sat in the bath for hours as that helps some what, but I'm also boiling hot so heat is just making me feel all sweaty and dizzy.

I am planning on having the coil put in next week.

Why am I getting cramps this bad for 4/5 days without no period? It's never happened for this long before

I’m assuming you’re not pregnant ?

How long has this been going on? Is it possible that you've got cysts?

Just this month this has happened.

Not pregnant. DP is on a ship in the North Sea and has been since may.

Could you have got pregnant before he went in May? Thats how Ive felt both times Ive been pregnant. Maybe do a test just to rule it out. Hoping you feel better soon x

Definitely not pregnant I've had a period in June x

You really should go to your GP, there's a million possibilities but you have to be firm with GP because they don't always take gynaecological problems seriously
