I have had my period for 5 years now. During the past 3 years (maybe further) I have been getting some severe pain during my period. PMS beforehand and during the first day or two, and once it starts its really bad cramping, to the point where I dont want to move or stand up. I get dizzy and nauscous, and I have muscle soreness from the middle of my back to my knees. Headaches come faster and easier. Could it be dysmenorrhea? I dont have sex, but I dont think I want to go on the pill or patch or anything. My period is only 4 days long, and Im scared going on the pill will make it last all 7 placebo days. OTC meds dont help much at all, I take perscription doses of ibuprofen just to deal with it. I hate it. Could it be dysmenorrhea? If or if not, what are some ways to help remedy the pain?
