Pain when running
Hi, I just wanna to share my own story with adenomyosis/endo.
I have always had extreme period pains(especially the first 24 hours of my cycle). Only gotten worse over time.
I have tried multiple estrogen and progesterone pills and didn’t like the hormones. I eventually got a mirena for local hormones and my body rejected it, so I unfortunately had to get it removed. This left me completely devastated, hopeless and back to the beginning.
On my period i now survive on ibuprofen and paracetamol. It is manageable except for the first day of my period where the pain is absolutely excruciating. 😣
My ultimate challenge is that I have started running and the days leading up to and days after my period, I simply cannot run because of the pain. The pain from running is so unbearable I need to sit down and wait for it to pass. It is about 10 minutes in hell where I want to puke and cry cause it hurts so freaking bad.
I am very curious if anyone have experienced the same? I have a theory that the running makes my uterus contacts and the adenomyosis in my uterus wall is my main factor. Does anyone have knowledge on this? I am very cerious to know
