About my severe menstrual issues
Everything regarding the menstruation-
•Regular cycles (25–35 days).
•Very light bleeding lasting 1–2 days.
•Extremely painful first day, lasting 4–6 hours.
Pain severe enough to make you cry and feel faint.
•Widening centre hair partition and excessive hair shedding.
(I assume it's mostly due to stress because I lost my mom in January this year and is in my second drop preparing for neet)
•Weight fluctuations
(gained 13 kgs in a matter of one month but mostly i believe it's due to food habits of living in a pg )and bloating.
-I have been experiencing this since a few months like 3-4 what do I do I just don't know cause I live alone in pg

Talk to experienced gynaecologist online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
Period pain severe enough to make you cry or feel faint isn't something to just push through, even with otherwise regular cycles. This degree of pain with a light flow can point to primary dysmenorrhea or sometimes endometriosis, and the stress you've carried this year can make the pain feel worse too. The hair shedding and quick weight gain are worth checking alongside this, since thyroid and hormonal shifts often show up as exactly this combination.
Next Steps
Please see a gynaecologist, who can order a pelvic ultrasound and a hormone and thyroid panel to look for an underlying cause, and suggest safe pain-relief options beyond basic painkillers once they've examined you.
Health Tips
If you actually faint, or the pain doesn't ease with rest, get seen the same day.
