God has created our bodies to work in amazing and wondrous ways! Now, our bodies can do some crazy things, but not all of these things are pleasant! If you’re a woman, you know how painful menstrual cramps are and how it’s a feeling no man could ever understand. Some women experience worse cramps than others, but either way, it’s something nobody looks forward too!

So, these cramps hurt, but are women just ‘overdramatic’ about them? Well, menstrual cramps, also medically known Dysmenorrhea, have finally been ruled as painful as having a heart attack. A Professor of reproductive health at University College London, John Guillebaud, now claims that his patients have described the cramping pain as ‘almost as bad as having a heart attack.’ This is a huge advancement that a man finally acknowledges just how painful cramps can be… now hopefully women’s menstrual pain will be taken more seriously! And, maybe there will be more serious efforts to look into treatment for this pain.
