Recently I noticed that I started getting serious sharp pains/cramps when I start to have my cycle. I know this is normal for most but for me it never happened before I usually get some back pain and that’s it. But these sharp pains/ cramps didn’t start until last year for the first time. I know the body changes of often especially with situations going on around you. From January to April I was in a serious depression i lost my grandfather who raised me in January and on the day of his funeral I found out my aunt has cancer. I

was so angry and upset because I didn’t know what was going on because no one was talking. Anyways a week later she passed and that fucked me up. (Sorry for my language, but it’s how I felt.) and to top it up I found out the my dad just had a daughter who was born the day before she died and I met my now 16 year old brother for the first time that same week. So imagine how I felt. I didnt celebrate my birthday last year March but my husband encouraged me to even go out and try to have some fun and to take my mind off things for a while.

This is how I felt. Anyways my husband was the one who helped me out of the depression. Once my period started I noticed short sharp pains. I normally could go about my dad to day without worrying about anything once it started, every now and then the back ache would happen and that’s it but I noticed sometimes I couldn’t move because of how much it hurt. Barely sleep at any given point. Sometimes I didn’t even bother trying to get up because it hurts so bad. I am 22 almost 23 and I scared of what will happen. I have a gynecologist appointment set up but honestly what if something is wrong? What I can’t have kids? Ladies if you have any advice I could really use it.
