The type of periods you are having are definately NOT normal and the pain you go through isn't either! From reading just what you said symptom wise it def sounds like you could have endometriosis, adenomyosis or something else. You need to make an appt with an GYN to get some tests done and be checked and possibly put on something to help the horrific symptoms you get!

Painful periods are not normal, find a doctor who will help & listen to you. Since you are a young female it may be hard but if you feel like what you're experiencing is not right, please do not ignore. I was going through the same thing when I was your age; heavy bleeding, missing school, vomiting... I am 32 and just got diagnosed a few months ago. I have made a lot of progress just by changing what I ate. Please do some research, alternative & conventional. Find a good GYN to help you. Hope this helps...

I am 21 and my periods have always been irregular. This describes how mine started. Definitely seek out a doctor, it can become dangerous if not treated.
