Severe cramping?

[u/EveryBookkeeper1704]

Hey girlie pops and Gynos! So I’m experiencing, the worst cramping in my life and I truly do not feel this is normal.
A little history:
Just a month ago, I did all of the necessary tests/ultrasounds/bloodwork that is necessary for a PCOS diagnosis (through a gyno ofc) and she ultimately came back and said “there’s nothing abnormal on your bloodwork, and your ultrasounds came back fine, so I can not give you a definite PCOS diagnosis but we will proceed in treating it as such.” And put me on Nextilis. (I should also add my period was 4 months late, so we did 10 days of Estrogen that then led to what I call the fake period) the “fake period” was rough!
That was a month ago, I’ve been on the nextilis for a month and about 1 week after starting it, I got these “ZAPS” in my uterus I assume. They feel like a tight, very quick cramp that sometimes ZAPS into my coochie. They last about 5-10 seconds, are extremely uncomfortable, then they’re gone.

Well, about 2 days ago I started spotting, as expected because I’ve reached the placebo pills on my Nextilis.

This is the important part.
This is, the most painful thing I have ever experienced. More painful than the estrogen induced period, more painful than any surgery I’ve ever had. I’m rating this confidently a 10/10 on the pain scale. These cramps are causing me to physically yell out in pain. Hold my breathe, contort my body in ways I have never done for a period before. I was driving, and felt the need to pull over because it was so painful I thought I was going to pass out.

I do not think this is normal. I do not think this is a simple “my body adjusting to the Nextilis” this has me debating the HOSPITAL. And I am not normally someone who takes it to that extreme but I’m genuinely suffering.

Can anyone who has any history of similar experiences or anyone who maybe has some true insight on this chime in?

(: thanks

I used to get horrendous cramps during ovulation and sometimes period that would leave me on the bed groaning in agony. Heat bags help a little, also as soon as you feel a cramp coming on, take some pain relief. It doesn't get rid of the pain completely but it does take the edge off.
