For some women, painful or difficult periods are simply part of their normal cycle.
For others, persistent or significant symptoms may deserve further investigation.
Conditions such as endometriosis and PCOS can affect women in different ways and may present with a range of symptoms.
The important thing?
You don't have to diagnose yourself.
If something about your cycle has been bothering you for months — or you've been repeatedly told to simply “put up with it” — consider discussing it with a gynaecologist.
Your symptoms deserve to be heard.
