Fat Christy wrote: » But that's an extreme case. In most cases it's not like that or can be easily fixed by going on the pill but a lot of women use it as an excuse. An over-used excuse at that!

Fat Christy wrote: » Do you have any proof most women suffer like you do? Honestly. Do you think extreme cases like yours are common?

Leonidas Plump Corn wrote: » It's not just regular blood either! There's lumps and stuff sometimes :D:D I get a bad dose about every three to six months, pain bad enough to wake me up and keep me from sleeping for the whole night, make it very difficult to run or do anything physically strenuous etc. The pill helps a fair bit, but unfortunately makes me have terrible moodswings and stuff all month (I've tried several), so I just have to deal with a dozen or so days of very bad pain a year. There's no way I can work through it, any painkillers strong enough to help would have me doped up beyond usefulness anyway so I just stay home and smoke weed

PucaMama wrote: » No I don't but I don't think its fair to assume most women just use it as an excuse. It doesn't need to be as bad as mine to affect your work.

Mr.McLovin wrote: » I got a little sick in my mouth, thanks
Fat Christy wrote: » I never said 'most women'. Anyway, I'm not going to fight with you over it because I like you as a poster (most of the time). I'm just going to agree to disagree with you. I must be incredibly luck as it doesn't really affect me at all.
