It's not been too easy having a "Dysmenorrhea", like me and other girls out there likewise my experience..... I have my regular menstruation but it has been painful during my first and its second day. I always take my painful reliever just prescribed by my doctor. If not take the medicine I can't stand nor do things what I had regularly. Someway have mark on my mind that every month that I've been through with this, I better be ready and advance myself taking my doctor's advice to ease pain that have suffered. Sometimes pass by also on my mind, do I get to take this every time I suffered? Will it have side effects 'cause I depend already on the medicine. My doctor said no cure for this sickness unless you married and get pregnant. Afterwards might experience more comfortable rather than painful it brought to me......To my fellow women who had suffered dysmenorrhea maybe we have same nor different ways and means........I wanted to know more of your experiences and how have you overcome nor tried things to work it out...? Somehow, it makes me feel good and not worry things.....

I am a guy so I don't suffer your condition but my wife has irregular menstruation and I don't see/hear her complaining about DYSMENORRHEA. *shrugs*

That is because your wife has what you say she has i.e. irregular menstruation. The medical term for irregular menses is "Metrorrhagia". This girl is suffering from dysmenorrhia which refers to a syndrome of painful menstruation. Please do not try to judge another person's pain based upon how your wife feels like.

I think your doctor was cutting out a joke on you by suggesting you to get married and pregnant to relieve the pain. The problem underlying dysmenorrhea is an imbalance of the the estrogen to progesterone ratio. The hormonal system may be some what imbalanced in girls during their years of early puberty because of it being immature. Rest assured that you shall recover from your condition as you grow older. However a quick fix to attain maturity sooner is to get pregnant ;)
