📢📢 endometriosis is more than just a ‘bad period’. It’s cramps when Your period is weeks away, it’s feeling nauseous when your period is coming, it’s backaches, it’s flare ups, it’s feeling like your insides are on fire and are throbbing. It’s sitting in your bathroom in the middle of the night, crying because it hurts. It’s taking pain meds over and over again because that’s what your doctor said would ‘help’, it’s using hand warmers / warmers in general on your tummy whenever you’re flaring up / on your period. It’s wearing sweatpants and loose fitting clothing all the time because wearing form fitting isn’t good and makes it feel like your insides are literally about to burst!!! It’s doctors telling us that we’re over-exaggerating our pain to get attention, it’s heavy bleeding for sometimes more than 7 days, it’s migraines and spotting between periods. It’s painful sex, it’s PAINFUL EVERYTHING. 📢📢 endometriosis isn’t just a monthly thing, it is a chronic illness that many suffer with so stop minimizing our pain because you don’t comprehend it.
