Girls, how bad would you say having a period is?

[Anonymous]

Agonizing/Unbearable

Painful/uncomfortable but manageable

Moderate/mild inconvenience

Doesn't bother me

It's unbearable. It's my second day and it hurts like hell. I can't do much except curl up in bed as my thighs feel heavy and hurt, stomach feels too sensitive to even touch and aches badly and so does my lower back. I feel weak and at times dizzy and breathless as I have anaemia and low hemoglobin. I cry my eyes out at times because of intense pain I feel and too much blood loss. I start experiencing pain 5-7 says before period starts and the pain gets worse when it finally arrives and the pain becomes manageable on 4th day. So, it's depressing.

so it just varies, depends on the person, and what's going on in their life

like as a teen i had apocalyptic periods that really really fucking sucked. its usually not as bad anymore (like minor - medium pain) but it took a while to get there

They are tolerable. I have been lucky so far.

It is a shitty reality of being a woman. Is it agonizing or unbearable? Nope.

[Asker]

Do you think it's the worst part about being a woman?

[Opinion Owner]

No, not even close.

[Asker]

What is the worst part?

[Opinion Owner]

For me personally, being physically weaker than 80% of the adult population comes to mind.

[Asker]

Would you say you like being a woman despite that?

[Opinion Owner]

Yes, I love being a woman. I wouldn't change it.

[Asker]

What would you say is the best part?
