Are severe period cramps something to worry about?

Question

I’m talking like, miss a day of work or school every single month due to cramps. Crying in pain on the first day, and it’s only relieved when I take a hot bath or sleep using the heating pad. 
What kind of health problems could this indicate? I’ve never really been so worried about it but I’ve just realized my cramps seem to be worse than the average girl.

Answer

Mine used to be like this; I had endo. I literally fainted in the grocery store from the pain once. I had to have a cyst on my ovary removed and they burned out a lot of the endo while they were in there. It helped but it does grow back. Talk to your obgyn about your options; a lot of time a hormonal birth control can help too.

Answer

Yes something could be wrong, like endometriosis or a retrograde uterus.
