    Period cramps aren't just in the abdomen. It's in your back, pelvic floor, butt, any number of places . I applaud any guy that sees this and then sympathizes with the woman(women) in their lives. Especially those that have serious pain or irregular periods and experience this pain.

      I was told my whole period experience was normal (I started at nine, which should have been hint number one)
      Later on, about age 11 (10 at earliest), I had periods anywhere from 2 to 3 weeks long, along with extra high pain, which is most likely off the scale. We almost went to hospitals for it because I physically couldn’t move. Went on the pill to even it out when i was, like, twelve, but by the time I was thirteen, almost fourteen in January, I had to go off to regulate my body. Two days in, I was feeling what would be a twenty on the simulator. Day three, twenty five/six. Day four, about forty, and refusing to eat unless it was my comfort food, which I was allergic to. There started eating issues ❤️❤️

    I feel like the main difference is on how the girls handle the pain vs the guys. Even when the girls said it hurt they still kept smiling and sitting normally while the guys cramped up their whole body. As a girl you just have to live with it when you have cramps, you might feel like hell but you still have to do your everyday businesses

      True the very first period is seriously painful you be close to crying though overtime your use
      To it and it’s more of a cramping sensation than then it is pain,but every girls different.
      Period can cause
      Dizzyness(depending on how much blood you loss)
      Cranky mood
      Weakness
      Cramps on lower abdomen
      Tiredness.
      This happens to us every 28 days,so imagine that,while doing labor.

      I agree, I can’t imagine really bad endometriosis. That pain can vary for each women and you don’t get enough support. I don’t tend to get much cramping after the first day so I lucked out and don’t understand how it is for even average peridods! But I have strong hormonal mood swings before and during: people always think that means I just cry ha. I don’t cry much, but I feel very irritated, lonely/depressed, hyper focusing on tasks, insomnia. PMDD has been thrown about lately, but so many drs over the years just said PMS is normal, cuz women are overreacting clearly 🙄 anything related to women’s health is minimized or we are infantilized, even by women doctors and nurses!

      I don’t get bad cramps anymore but a few years ago my cramps got so bad I threw up in the red center then I felt better afterwards. Recently I had cramps when I was sleeping It’s hard to sleep with cramps and they were just moderate pain level.I use to get cramps before my period that were really mild like a 1-3 than the closer I got to my period the cramps slowly got more painful until they were a level 6 probably.My best friend in high school had very bad cramps that went to her legs I kept telling her to be tough but I don’t how it felt I didn’t hardly get cramps as a teenager.

Only found out what it was the next day when I mentioned it to my mother. She and the doctor both lectured me that I should have called an ambulance.

But I think it’s the pain and the mess for a solid 4-6 days - it’s 24/7, it doesn’t stop, you just get tired of the gross hassle and then yeah, it makes you grouchy. AND you water bloat, so your clothes feel tighter. It kind of sucks all around and it happens for a good 1/5 of your every single month. And any time someone mentions a trip or big event coming up, (beach? lake? vacation? camping?) you quickly check your calendar to see where your cycle will be.

Don't forget that a lot of women have abnormal periods, (that would be me, also with the 5-7 days also), extremely heavy bleeding, so much so that my bleeding caused me to become anemic, I swear I'm not lying! My doctor had to put me on something to stop my periods completely bcuz they were that SERIOUS!
      So guys, remember, you get to do this for fun, but for a lot of us women, periods are pure torcher! Imagine hurting so much from this that you can't even get up and being in that much pain for days non stop with blood literally GUSHING out of you at school, at work, wherever etc. And you STILL HAVE TO GET UP AND PARTICIPATE IN YOUR LIFE DESPITE FEELING LIKE YOU'RE LITERALLY DYING... for DAYSSSSSSS???????

    Having suffered with endometriosis my whole life, getting a hysterectomy was one of the best decisions I ever made. I was in the ER nearly every month going into shock and nearly losing consciousness from the pain. Doctors STILL were hesitant to do it even though I have 4 kids, and it took a uterine prolapse to get them to do it. Ladies and gentlemen, please don't ever downplay the pain your woman is feeling. It should never be that bad, but it is, and it's very, very real. Kudos to these dudes willing to subject themselves to a piece of the pain.

      So sorry to hear that. To be fair, a lot of women don’t fully understand what a hysterectomy does to them hormonally. And It can be really damaging to them psychologically if they are unprepared for the consequences. Because it’s such a life-changing and invasive surgery, doctors will always push back to be sure the patient understands the gravity of it.

      Sending you huge, but gentle, hugs.
      You are *SO FREAKIN' STRONG!* Honestly, I don't know how you managed to get through that kind of pain for such a significant amount of your life. And all while raising four kids!
      So many people don't understand what it feels like to get the kind of cramps that you had. A friend of mine once described it as having a hot poker jammed up the rectum. That sounded about right to me.
      I was extraordinarily lucky to only land in the ER once from endometriosis cramps. It blows my mind that you had to live with the awful anticipation of having to go through that kind of agony *every month!* In my case, we knew endometriosis runs in the family, so my mom and her ob/gyn took me seriously. The ob/gyn confirmed the diagnosis surgically, started me on birth control, and gave me meds to help take the edge off the pain when the cramps were at their worst (this was in 1995, when doctors prescribed pain meds to those who needed them).
      I had a Grade 3 uterine prolapse several years ago. None of my doctors had seen a prolapse in someone so young who had never been pregnant. 😆 We didn't know then that the prolapse was a symptom of the genetic disorder I hadn't yet been diagnosed with. I searched for and found a doctor who would perform a surgery that's used in the UK to repair a prolapse without a hysterectomy or the use of mesh. I would have chosen a hysterectomy if I hadn't gotten acceptable relief from the cramps with my Mirena IUD.
      Anyway, the only reason I'm explaining any of this is because I have a very faint inkling of the hell you've survived because of my own experiences. I can also imagine how you were treated in the ER during some of those visits. Hospital staff aren't always terribly compassionate to people who have extreme pain. Though I understand why they become jaded, it's still upsetting to be in agony, need help, and to get punished for other people's choices, instead.
      I'm so happy for you that you'll never have to endure another round of endometriosis cramps, but I'm sorry that it took so long and a significant surgery for you to live without that pain. 💙

    I thought this was hilarious. You guys actually had it easy. All you had to do was sit there, for a few minutes with that type of pain. If you TRULY want to experience what we women experience with menstrual cramps, try that device on 4-7, THEN GO ABOUT YOUR DAY. Drive with it, run errands with it, vacuum the whole house with it, stand there doing dishes. Go to work and DO your work with that thing on all day. Eat your meals, sit quietly and watch tv, or read, or do whatever it is you do. Have a normal conversation that doesn't include the pain you are in. If you normally run, or go to the gym, then do it with that device on. Don't forget to sleep with it on, too! Use that device, non-stop, for AT LEAST 3 days. ONLY THEN will you have an inkling of what we women experience EVERY MONTH.
    I say an inkling, because you are only dealing a part of the pain. You aren't dealing with the bloating, the discomfort that is separate from the pain. You aren't having to deal with the actual discharge, or the slight nausea that can also accompany that pain. You are also not dealing with the hormonal changes that also come with a menstrual period. You aren't dealing with the headaches that can also come with a menstrual period.
    These are all things that we women face every month... a lot of times with men making fun of us, thinking our menstrual periods are a joke... making light of them, like it's just an excuse for us to be mean, or get hysterical.
    I'm not trying to demean you, please don't think that I am. I just hope to make you understand that the pain simulator you experienced for a few moments does not truly compare to what it feels like to have a menstrual period.

Like how much it could hurt! The nausea, the headaches, the way my skin and clothes felt tight because of the bloating. How long the pain lasted. But after dealing with it for a few months, I got used to it. That's where our strength lies... we handle it, because we have to, and because we get used to it. Women's strength is the strength to endure. Men's strength is to be proactive. I don't know what kind of work you do, but men have the strength to do jobs that most women couldn't do.

    Edit: 4 months after my comment, I'm writing this edit (more like a novella) because I started tracking my period cramps. About 3-4 days before my period starts, my cramps are usually at their worst. It's not that bad, but I feel like a sharp needle is poking my lower belly every few minutes. When my period starts, the pain isn't unbearable on its own (if I focus on it for like 10 seconds), but the problem is that it DOES NOT stop for at least 5 days. So, while the pain isn't too bad, having it every second of every day makes me want to take my eyes out. Then, on the 6th and 7th day of my period, it's fine. My period has always lasted 7 days, no more, no less.

Periods can last anywhere from 5-12 days for me and sometimes I end up getting it twice in the same month. Have been told my level of pain is comparable to giving birth. Adenomyosis made me infertile too so. Yep. I've taken hardcore painkillers given to me by the hospital before and they hardly take the edge off. Most girls/women go undiagnosed like I did with thinks like we mentioned, cysts, fibroids or things like pcos for nearly their entire lives and suffer because we always get told that's how its supposed to be and suck it up. It isn't. If you have heavy periods and your cramps are so bad you throw up and have trouble moving around go to the doctor. Do not listen to anyone trying to tell you its normal. Its not. And they can help you. For me it progressed to the point the only option I have left is to have a hysterectomy. I went undiagnosed until I was 25 and was able to see a doctor on my own. And even then it took me seeing 4 different doctors to be taken seriously.

    Periods don't just hurt, that's the issue. Like yeah, your abs hurt, but your back, your stomach, your pelvis, your thighs, your breasts, it's just all achy. Then the wet feeling on your ladyparts if you're using a pad, the stupid string getting stuck if you're using tampons, something leaking, blood going up your butt, the general ick every time you go to the bathroom, the loss of appetite and nausea, being hyper sensitive to any stimulus, it's just awful

    Something important to take into consideration is that really painful cramps are not typical. However, women with endometriosis or other reproductive struggles can have debilitating cramps that cause a multitude of symptoms. It also doesn't seem as though the simulator pads are in the proper places. Maybe try putting some on the lower abdomen near the groin and some on the lower back near the coccyx. That might feel more realistic.

    I happen to have this exact TENS unit, so I tried it. I know my periods can be miserable, but wow... It was at 12, before it was something I would even consider cramping, and 20 was still maybe 20% of my worst cramps.
    I will say, those worst cramps lay me out whimpering, because crying might cause more pain 😂
    This feels like a pinching tickle. Imagine rather an inch diameter pipe that reaches from lower abdominals to lower back, clamping to parts of your innards pulling it with as the pipe spins... then that pain radiates through your whole body.

    They forget that we have to still go about our day and period pain isn't considered sick leave. So the whole feeling pain and not showing it much is practiced because we had to practice and do it for the real world. Periods is pretty much a week long once a month performance we HAVE to do

    Next time you have to do daily activities while using the simulator. Carry a glass of water across the room, stand up sit down, just walking....etc 🙂

    I actually own one of those units to HELP with my chronic pain. Not sure exactly the science behind it, but it’s used for my muscle & nerve pain, as well as just relaxation for the muscles.

    Thank you all for doing this. It made me smile... When i get bad cramps and I am still moving through our my day... and no one knows.,.... I applaud you. Oh yeah, and the other poster... it is in the stomach and the back too. the pain in abs, the back, plus sometime he feeling of wanting to cry, (mood) on top of it all. Now go to work on that, and raise kids while feeling it. In the past ,en would commit their wives as they did not understand. They called it hysteria and or other things.

    Yay! I love these. I was pretty lucky. I had bad cramps a few times a week but I had friends that had to call in sick and stay in bed with a hot water bottle. Hated the moodiness and intense lower back ache the day before and the all week fatigue more than anything. Also, craved salty and sweet for an entire day. Thank you, whoever created Reece's.
