UNCOMFORTABLE MENSTRUAL CYCLE!

This is by far the most uncomfortable cycle I’m having! I’m very gassy (which is normal for me when my period comes) but the painful part is when I need to poo I have this sharp pain in my anus I basically have to tense up a bit while releasing because I feel like I might hurt myself! Has anyone ever had this happen to them?? I do poo a lot when my period comes but never experience such pain level and once I do release it’s completely gone! 😔 right now is my second day and I just wish it was my last day already
