Yep I get horrible headaches...and my back is even worse...it's like being in labor...When that starts ..feels the same way..I am in labor all the time I guess lol...because my back always hurts..but when it's my time of the month hide and do not try to come near me! So the answer is yes...more pain! 😢😢😢

@A MyFibroTeam Member ofcourse it isn't just you! Lots of wimon hurt really bad when it's the time of the month, and if you have serious pain issues already, it's very painful and frustrating because that hurts a lot as well that's double trouble! I just had mine..glad it's gone...xxx🤗
