Painful menses: Your very painful menstrual periods may be caused by endometriosis, a condition where tissue similar to that of the inside of the uterus, implants in tissues outside of the uterus. It affects up to 10 % of women. It certainly can impact your lifestyle. It can be treated. Consult a gynecologist for evaluation and treatment for whatever the problem is.
