Hi, thank you for posting.

I have gone through your query and I understand your concerns.

Your symptoms are caused by dysmenorrhea. Dysmenorrhea is caused by endometriosis.
To confirm the diagnosis you need a pap test, gynecological ultrasound, complete blood count and an urine test.

Contact your OBGYN to discuss about the treatment.

All the best.
Dr. Behar.
