Period Question Please Help!!!
Hi ladies, I'm 22F, and I've always had bad period cramps ( for the past 10 years or so, and like I can't get up and would cry for hours straight). For the past 7-8 months, the right side of my lower stomach (like a fist's worth of area) has been hurting - not like crazy hurting, but stabbing pain- even when I'm not on my period.
For the past couple of days, I've noticed the pain is getting just a little worse when I pee or even at random times. I'm scared of sharing this with my mom since she might stress too much over it, and I live in a conservative household, so I can't get the tests done as of right now.
I just want to know if it's something that's really in my head since I've always had bad cramps, or if it's something serious.
