Same, I'm 17 too and I get this sharp shooting pain in my anus whilst on my period. I'm going to go and see a doctor, I wouldn't mind being embarrassed for a few minutes because my health is important. I'm scared that if I leave this, it could become worse and the pain for me becomes worse by each period or due to the foods I eat.

I experience the same exact thing usually the first two day. The pain in my abdomen and or rectum during bowel movements is terrible. I also have no other symptoms that were mentioned. I've been wondering why and gyn doesn't seem to have an answer.

Omg yay. I'm not crazy. For the past two yrs after my last son. For the first 2 days if my period. Urinating, pooping , and passing gas are the most painful things I have ever experienced in my life. All I know 9 after I had my son my entire vaginal , and rectal walls collapsed. So idk if it's the swelling causing the pain. All I know is I'd rather die than to feel this kind of pain . Hopefully I can get into my gym on soon and find out what's going on. Once again ladies. Thank you for sharing your stories and helping me to realize that I'm not crazy and it's not all in my head.

Acupuncture has done wonders for me. And homeopathy. You need to treat the cause and surgeries only treat the symptom. Find a good acupuncturist and a homeopath. Good luck

This just happened to me for the first time today. Confused and worried... I turned to the Internet. I'm only 16, which worries me a bit considering most of the people on hear are older. I'm in great health, I eat healthy and I exercise everyday to train for half marathons. I'm very worried to try running considering it hurts to just sit. I'm too embarrassed to go to the doctor :(

I actually exercise often (3 to 5 times a week) and I'm very healthy and I eat healthy. I'm 24 and I still continue to feel these pains. They're worse on my workout days.

I think this is my problem. I haven't had coffee in years and this same pain during the first few days of menstruation seems to have coincided with me resuming coffee drinking. 1 cup a day...but I'm also going to increase fiver, exercise and eliminate ate coffee to see if it helps me next month.

Just wanted to ad to the list.
33, mother of 2, via 2 c sections. I'm very healthy, (personal trainer, teach group exercise classes for 12 years now, every day) pain started a year after my second baby. I breast feed for 12 months. I had no period in those 12 months. When I weekend her and got my cycle back it was HeLL. Every month has got better. It's been 8 cycles. I never passed out but I cried and doubled over alot. Also used heating pads and ibprofs. For 2 days the first 3 months.
No solutions. Just wanted to add that I feel yall. I feel like gas gets stuck I side me and the knife pain I call lightning a.... I also want to add 5hat my periods are BRIGHT red and very watery si ce the start of this. It squirts out of me like water. And it's heavy. I have excellent diet and have taught pilates, zumba, kickbox, run... for so long, I can't imagine I can get much stronger Germany in that sense, so I don't think that's the answer. Maybe it does make it feel better though?

Hello I am currently on my period and just got the shooting pain, I didn't realise before but I have had this a few years ago but it lasted 3 days I had to take time off work I went back to work on the 4th day and half an hour before my shift ended it happened again I could barely walk :/

Today I just got my period. I had to go to the washroom for a bowel movement and as I was sitting there, SHARP shooting pains started in my lower abdomen and anus, it was soooo painful, I thought I was going to die. It only happens when I get my period... I have a 4 year old and I'm only 29 years old. There was complications with my second pregnancy at 1 month, so I had to have an abortion. After that this stuff started happening. Currently sitting here and can still feel a bit of shooting pain/gas in my abdomen. I'm really worried as to what's going on...... There's no blood in stool at all... Anyone get diagnosed? or figured out what this is from?

I get this too. I'm actually at the doctors office right now to talk about it again. I have learned though that relaxing is extremely important. If you tense your anus muscles, the cramping gets 10x worse. Breath, relax and push out through the pain. It won't spasm if you do this.

Could be hemorrhoids. I have them and I get painful bowel movements all the time along with blood in stool

Reading this gives me relief cause I just came from the urgent care because of the same exact reasons. Ever since I had my 2nd child I started having those pains during bowel movements and passing gas. It only happened the first 2-3 days. They checked my urine, blood and took an xray. Everything was normal. GAve me sulindac to take instead of ibuprofen and birth control pills. I feel everybody's pain. I'm scared to go number 2 due to the pain. I plan on seeing the obgyn soon since the symptoms I've had ties into endometriosis :( hopefully it's not.

Get birth control pills which will likely stop your periods while you are taking the pill. If you have endometriosis, which is the likely cause, it will stop the endometrium from acting up while you are on the pill. You don't need any diagnosis to get the pills and can get them no questions asked. It's what the OB/GYN probably would have given you anyway.
