Period pains... cant help but worry

Marg_27 · Jan 8th, 2009, 11:59 AM

I have been told a million times over its normal, but still cant help but worry!!
I suffer everyday, at least 3-4 times a day with period pains...
I have no bleeding and no spottin whatsoever...so I kno Im bein paranoid...but stillllll cant help it!
I went to EPAC yesterday for a scheduled scan as ive previously had an ectopic, and they assured me the pains were normal, and that I would prolly suffer more due to scar tissue...
But again.... still cant help but worry!!!

I had period like pains in the first few weeks too. I mentioned it to the doctor who said it was just stretching and was perfectly normal. It will be replaced by nausea all too soon so try not to worry about it.

Mine have just started to ease off, so had them for about 3 weeks. Still get pulling/stretching pains tho

Thanx girls so much xx
Its ok being told by a Doc that its normal, but I dont know bout you guys, but it seems more reassuring to hear it from some1 who has actually experienced it rather than read it from a book....
