🌸 “It’s not just a bad period… it’s Endometriosis.” ✨
Too many women live with intense cramps, heavy bleeding and exhaustion, being told it’s “normal.” But chronic, severe pain during periods is not normal. It may be endometriosis – a condition where tissue similar to the uterine lining grows outside the uterus.
🔹 Why awareness matters:
Endometriosis affects millions worldwide but is often underdiagnosed. Early recognition = faster relief + better fertility outcomes + improved quality of life.
🔹 Common signs to watch for:
– Severe period pain that stops daily activities
– Pain during or after intimacy
– Heavy or irregular bleeding
– Chronic pelvic or lower back pain
– Bloating, nausea or fatigue
🔹 What you can do:
– Track your cycle & symptoms in a journal or app
– Seek a gynaecologist’s opinion if pain feels “different”
– Learn about treatment options: lifestyle shifts, medications, surgery
– Practice gentle self-care (rest, balanced diet, stress management) while seeking medical support
✨ Bottom line: You don’t have to “tough it out.” If your period pain feels extreme, advocate for yourself. Awareness saves years of silent suffering. 🫶
