Writer's picture: Lydia CotterLydia Cotter

90% of women experience pain on day 1 -2 of their cycles. And 1 in 6 experience extreme pain. But why? Learn how to get help for your period pain.

Pesky prostaglandins


Your body releases hormones known as prostaglandins, which can intensify uterine contractions and exacerbate  pain.


The pain you experience is an inflammatory reaction that can be aggravated by stress, inadequate sleep, and bloating.there could be other reproductive THINGS at play, like excess endometrial lining, pelvic congestion.  


Exploring and knowing what factors contribute to the pain can result in successful pain relief.


For instance, if stress is a factor, a pain reliever like Neurophen may help the pain, but not address the stress...Until the stress is addressed, the pain will persist


Women are often underrepresented and overlooked by their healthcare providers. Too often we are not given the right level of care or gaslit by the medical practitioners when trying to get to the bottom of the pain.
