The issue is that starting BC means I also get really bad cramps.
I rarely get cramps, but in the past 3 years when I do, I can't function.
- If on average this happens to all women -- is this actually a contributing factor to why we don't make as much as men? Because losing 1/4 of your time each month with a decline in focus and productivity sucks.
- And then I get pissed when periods are used as an excuse or as some joke. I hate when girl's mood or issues are blamed on PMS or just being a girl. That shit pisses me off -- but to not acknowledge how severely I react to my period does make me realize denying it makes me a hypocrite
- Have you read the reasons and therapies on what causes cramps and how to relieve them? Burning or cutting things up there sounds pretty awful, despite it having a high success rate. Anyone experience this? I feel like I trust doctors and I'm a brave person, but for some reason these bother me. Nothing morally against it, maybe right now I just don't like anyone in the general vicinity
- I equate these cramps to bad gas, constipation, being stabbed or repeatedly punched in the stomach -- all while being sore and achy for no good reason.
- Apparently, when I sleep, I whimper pathetically and roll around a lot. No wonder I need so much extra sleep.
