I feel really serious cramps and back ache during periods, I can not live without painkillers during this time. Plus I feel really weak in my legs, feet and arms. I need a dr if anyone can advise me
hi
Extremely common condition to have.This is called dysmenorrhea.if you get discharge, irregular periods bleeding during sex, or painful sex then it need tests like ultrasounds if not no real need for such investigations.Treatmeant is use of Mafnemic acid during periods or you can use contraceptive pills if you are not planning family in near future.
