periods
Hi, I've been on my period for 2 years now. Im 14, and i'll be 15 in august. When I get my period, I get it REALLY bad, especially my cramps. They are always so bad that I cant walk, I cry, and I cant do any normal things, I just have to lay down throughout the day in pain until my period is over. When I had school, I couldn't even make it to school,and I would always have to go home during the day. My cramps usually last throughout the whole entire period but their not as bad at the end. I also have every single symptom a girl gets when shes on period, such as bloating,PMS,boob pains, and all this other stuff. Also when Im on my period my whole body is messed up, like Im sick. I also get lightheaded and sick to my stomach.
I tried advil for my cramps and it only makes them worse. Extra strength tylonal works for me but not enough as it should.
Is all of this normal? All my friends dont have this problem. My mom does so it could be genetics.
Should I go to the doctor?
thanks<3

Before trying birth control, you should try Midol. Its an over the counter pill for menstrual symptoms. Because really birth control isnt all the great for you at such a younge age it can give you cancer.

This is definatly normal. You should expect to have some discomfort while on your period. That's only normal. I think that going to the doctor would definatly be a good choice in this situation. Most people's period cramps and pains aren't serious enough to warrant it, but it sounds like yours are. See if he can prescribe you some stronger pain killers or maybe see about getting on birth control. "The pill" is supposed to help relieve some of the pain from cramping.

Yes, it's totally normal, only some women hardly get any symptoms and some women do. I was exactly like you, until I got on the Pill. talk to you mom about this, and your doctor. It'll help so much you won't even believe it.

Hrm. It could be genetics.. you could try talking to your mother about getting on birth control.
Not saying you have any real "reason" for it now, but at the same time.. alot of times birth control can help calm those cramps.. and lessen how hard your period hits you.
I've been there, know how it is.. >.< You can also try hot baths/showers those few days your in such pain the heat can help lessen them.. and at least give you a bit of relief. Good luck.
