A member asked:
Is it true that your period pain and symptoms get worse as you become older?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes and No: The nature of the menstrual period can change with time. For some women the periods will become worse with more cramps, clots, and pain. For others the periods will be better with less cramps, clots, and pain. For women with endometriosis, the tendency is for the menstrual cycles to worsen with time.
