why is it that some women develop a lot of problem during their menstrual period?

My mother, sister, and grandmother all have something called endometriosis. Endometriosis is a condition, usually resulting in pain and dysmenorrhea, that is characterized by the abnormal occurrence of functional endometrial tissue outside the uterus.\n\nIt's not a pleasent thing, and can make periods a lot worse. if your wife is only getting bad paid during her menstrual period then I'd doubt she'd have that... But it actually isn't unusual for women to have bad paid. not all women do have it, but it is common. they can have it sometimes too. they don't nessisarily have it all the time, it's just a joy of being a woman!\n\nIt might be a good idea to talk to a doctor though. just to check if you are that worried about it. even if they don't find something wrong with her, they can proscribe good pain killers and things like that.

I was going to say stress but if you are not stressed than that couldnt be it.  Early menopause could be the issue.  Its unusual but not impossible.

I don't get excited all the time, but some females get horny a lot more when their vaginas are shaved, or many females get horny throughout their premenstrual time, and on their periods.

Everyone is different. Some women do not have regular menstrual cycles. There are things that can change your cycle. For example if a woman is does not meet her nutritional needs or is anorexic she may not get a period for a while. If you are very athletic this will also change your cycle. The most important thing for you to do is to see your doctor about these concerns. Remember people will always offer advice but nobody but you and your doctor can find the correct answer to your question.

The words you are looking for are "menses" (or "menstruation") and "vagina."  If you're old enough to ask about menstruation, you should act old enough to use the literal terms instead of derogatory, demeaning slang.  Now then - almost all women have some cramping during their periods, classified as either primary dysmenorrhea (which refers to "normal" menstrual pain) or secondary dysmenorrhea (which is a result of an underlying disease or disorder). "Normal" cramps occur in almost all women due to the release of prostaglandins, which are hormones produced by the endometrium (the lining of the uterus). Prostaglandins cause the uterus to contract (sometimes quite painfully) in order to expel the menstrual debris (and henceforth, start the period). Some women produce higher levels of prostaglandins than others, so they may hurt more.  In the case of a woman who has secondary dysmenorrhea, there are other reasons for her pain, including diseases or conditions like Endometriosis, Adenomyosis, Pelvic Inflammatory Disease, cervical stenosis, structural abnormalities in the vagina or uterus itself, fibroids, etc.  I trust that answers your inquiry.

its normal to have some spotting in between periods... but if your periods are usually regular and consistent, I agree with the others you should talk to the dr.   Could also mean pregnancy, could be something wrong, or could be nothing.... sorry to be vague, but a woman's body and period issues are kind of like the check engine light in your car... could be some little thing or a big thing, its hard to figure out w/out a professional!

This is perfectly normal.  Sodas are not good for you in general, but they wouldn't have this effect on menstruation.\n\nYou answered your own question.  Stress messes with all your systems, and a woman's cycle is usually the most vulnerable and obvious.  You could have also lifted something heavy and this speeded up extra discharge for a little while.  That happens to me whenever I lift heavy things on my period.

I think because women seek medical help and have routine exams more frequently than men.  I think it's a macho thing for the man to suffer w/o seeking medical attention.

from month to month. In other women, the cramps are always very painful. Sometimes the cramping is also accompanied by nausea, vomiting, headache, dizziness, nervousness, fatigue, diarrhea, fainting, bloating, and mood swings. Women who experience these extreme maladies during menstruation have been found to produce more prostaglandin’s, hormones secreted by the uterine lining to increase contractions.

Has a lot to do with hormone levels. The hormone levels fluxuate and create headaches, cramps, crabbiness.\n\nPlus, bleeding is not necessarily a good feeling.\n\nIt also has to do with society conditioning women into thinking that Periods are bad or "gross" when they are completely natural.

You should seek professional help if it happens often. If it is just a one time case, no need to worry. Girls who starts having menstruation may need some time to reach a regular cylcle. Women who almost come to menopause stage also have irregular cycles. Many people have irregular menstrual cycles, it is hormonal and as long as no other things wrong with their bodies, they shouldn't worry too much. Excessive worry may cause health problems.

Women are more emotional than men are...for the most part.  Plus alot of it is hormonal. Our cycles change several times in the matter of a month. And what do you mean I am moody?!!!  lmto! :op~~

Serious mood swings happen to women.  Hormones fluctuate, and it effects everything from mood to how our bodies feel.  Yes, it does have to do with the women's mensrual cycle, though don't ever bring that up.  Different hormones do different things to our bodies at different times of the month.  And it gets really frustrating.  We can go from being in a good mood to wanting to cry in just a minute.  Of course, all women are different.  This effects women on different levels.  It's worse for some than others.  \nWhen a girl is going through this, remember that she can't help it.  You need to be extra nice and respectful of her, and don't make fun of her.  For most girls, don't mention PMS or anything.  We don't really want the world knowing what our bodies are doing.  Just be really nice to her, and don't take offence if it backfires.  Hope this helps!

It can be caused by stress.  even if you don't think you are stressed there could be something that is bothering you just enough to screw up your cycle!  Also age....When I was younger my cycles were so heavy, but now that I am almost 30 it has started to slow down.

Stress and weight changes can cause you to skip periods every once in a while. See your doctor if you think it's something else.
