Thank you for doing such and awesome job keeping my babies warm but why oh why do you punish me every month with so much pain :-(
Since having my babies my period pain has come back with a vengeance as well as it being very very heavy blood wise. Could this be a problem and should I get it looked at? I used to have bad cramps but nothing like this?
Plus TMI I get a really sore vagina like its going to explode?
Anyhelp? Thanks xxx
:-( crap chick, I think you need to get this checked out. I see your last bubs was born in 09, that is a long time for your periods to sort themselves out.
Yep - I would get it looked at for sure. Not sure what it could be but Exploding vaginas aren't good.
i was told by a GP years ago that by having a baby, my boobs would even up (lopsided here), my period pain would lessen and my periods lighten up. well since having DS, boobs are now saggy (:lol:), period pain is worse ( i had a period last year where i had pain for 4 days), and the flow is much heavier (including that period last year where i pretty much flooded and lost very large clots). having said that the GP was male
not sure about the exploding vagina but its probably something you should get checked out. good luck and let us know how you go! :hug:
I have no advice but just wanted to say what you've described is what I get too since having kids. My period lasts 6-7days, I get terrible back and tummy pain, and sometimes even joint pain. I get an achey vulva too. It's a much heavier flow too. I have put it down to being the fact I don't take the pill anymore, and I did pre kids. So this is my natural cycle.
Since two kids mine also are SUPER heavy!!! Really badly. But painwise there is virtually none?
Whereas i used to get heaps of pain.
Have you tried EPO?

Could you be lacking in something? Do you eat enough protein?
Thanks girls.
3littlemonkeys that's me to a T. The pain is in my vuvla and it like a throbbing muscle pain :-/
i think I will go to the gp there have been lots of things not feeling right lately like nausea etc so best I get checked out!
Tanya I usually get iron defficent so maybe that's it!

I got exactly this after my twins. I started using a menstrual cup instead of tampons which did help a little, but it also allowed me to measure exactly how much my loss was each month which meant my GP took me seriously. I ended up getting a mirena coil which has helped massively by stopping my periods but after 3 years they are starting to come back so I am going to ask for a referral to a gyne for an ablation or (fingers crossed) a hysterectomy to put the pain to an end once and for all.
You have described me to a T!
I can't take the pill now and while I was devastated at first, I'm loving it now!
The dr put me on a medication that I have to take for the first 4 days of every period and it lessons the length, the amount, the pain, the clotting and most other horrid symptom...
Quite possibly, maybe try a sup for a couple of months and see if it helps.:
:( That sux. Could the throbbing possibly be from a varicose vein? I know i had enlarged veins when pregnant and got that throbbing type pain. Always worth getting checked in case they can do something to help. xx
I have exactly the same thing since having the girls, was good for the first period or two, then BAM worse than ever. I've just purchased a menstrual cup (much to DHs disgust lol), hoping it may help....can't hurt to see your gp though x
