I suffer from several chronic diseases and have a lot of pain with them and when I get my period (which is actually right now) the pain gets hitched right up to "I need ALL the pain relievers RIGHT NOW!" and I'm cruising YT trying to get through it. But seriously, every man, especially physicians should have to go through this. Especially when they have patients with co-morbid conditions that include pain issues.

As a past Paramedic, I've seen women in so much pain due to everything from severe PMD to endometriosis, being in labor to being in the process of having a late-stage miscarriage. What women go through is not for the faint of heart. Even with my long history of numerous kidney stones, I cannot fathom what they go through.

[@marytramp5678]

as someone who is only 5'3" and had 3 babies that were close to 10lbs naturally, had 2 miscarriages, and have passed 3 kidney stones. i can guarantee you that the pain i had from my kidney stones i wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. i would rather give birth a 100 times over again than have to pass yet another kidney stone. with my last one i thought i was going to die. and when they put the stent in after they blew it up, my body had a bad reaction to it, and that pain was even worse than the kidney stone itself. i have lost count of the bones i've broken and surgeries i've had, and for all of them i've never had to take any pain killers. but man those kidney stones broke me. But from what i understand that endometriosis is even worse, i know my sister in law had that when she was younger.

[@woodstream6137]

​@@marytramp5678 I've had 5. The first was the worst. It was 8mm lodged in ureter. After they busted it they sent me home with Internal bleeding, back to the hospital for 2.5 days. I think it was stent damage which was worse than any of my stones. 5 weeks of bloody urine and back cramps - felt like a million dollars after the Stent was out. I felt so much better that i realized i had forgotten what feeling good was like. Last one was 5 months ago and took 3 weeks to pass. 1 week of discomfort, 1week of extreme pain where i would have gone to the ER if the advil didn't kick in. The last week it must have been in the bladder until it was lined up to pass.

I describe it like a psychotic partner who begs for a kid every month- builds a nursery, and buys all the furnishings. Then when you don't make one, gets super mad and turns the nursery into a rage room. Then for the next 7ish days, goes in there at varying levels of upset to scream, shred the drywall, take a sledge to the crib, rip up the carpet, etcetera- while sneaking laxatives in your food just to be petty. Then, after they're done, begs for a baby and starts building the nursery again for the next 28 or so days.

I want this as a series! Love it! It feels so validating, freeing, and relieving that these non-menstruating individuals are acknowledging the pain of those of us who do…including other menstruators who have lower levels of pain and tolerance to their period. I almost want to cry. My mom has already invalidated me in my experience and behaved that it should be as easy for me as it was for her. I do not have pleasant periods. I have had to leave high school and, after high school, work more than once because it was so bad. I would rock sometimes while crying because staying still was worse than the pain I got when I would rock back and forth with my legs folded into me. Sometimes I will lay in the bath tub and just turn the shower on to it’s hottest setting and aim it at my lower abdomen because the pain of the searing hot water would numb my period pain. I often go to bed with an ice pack on my lower back and my lower abdomen and I wear diapers because pads are too messy. It’s severely unpleasant.

[@sheryljohnson6602]

I did the same thing. I also started having periods at the age of 9. They were horrendous, and the pain was so bad I would literally throw up because of it. Everyone would discount it and I was often accused of faking it. A couple of years ago, I was in the hospital for something unrelated, but after an MRI, they sent someone from Gyno to come talk to me. After decades of no one understanding- including other doctors, this one said, "I bet you have extremely heavy painful periods." It turns out I had a condition called endometrial hyperplasia. A normal endometrium is about 3 to 5 mm thick. Mine was 27mm. After I got out of the hospital, they scheduled a D&C, and within to months it was just as thick again. By this time I was menopausal, but my endometrium was still staying thick. I had to have another D&C, and they gave me a Mirena IUD, because progesterone helps keep it under control. Next time you're at the doctor's, ask them to check your endometrial stripe. I wouldn't be at all surprised if you have this or something very similar. But it CAN be treated.

@@georgehutto having xx chromosomes does not necessarily mean you menstruate tho. but as I see it, for you xx=woman, xy=man, so i dread to think what you call people whose chromosome makeup does not fall into these neat two boxes.

this is a fun series! i hope there is a period pain simulator 3. i can understand the women not wanting to experience more pain when they already deal with it monthly, anyway. but, i was hoping one of them would try for 20. i'm a little disappointed in their lack of curiosity. however, if i was in their shoes.....i would have done EXACTLY the same thing. i'm still a BIG fan of all three of them. darren was impressive! his voice was calm......but, you could see the pain in his eyes. yet, he went all the way without complaint. the more i see of him, the more i admire his capabilities in several areas. he is a standout among the try men! george was the big surprise. he didn't strike me as being particularly good at handling pain. yet, even though he was HURTING at five......he had the courage to go all the way to 20. he handled it better than his buddy dermot did. i'm sure he will remind dermot of that on several occasions. five men have made it to 20, so far. each handled it differently. i have MUCH respect for all 5 of them. i would love to try this someday.....but, i'm sure i would never see 20. another GREAT show, try channel! good job.

[@laramaaike3050]

When I think back on all the things I did while on a period with heavy flow and extreme pain, I am confused at how I manage it. 3 years back I got a procedure done and finally no more periods for me. And I hated the period-poops. My mom never had any pain or heavy flow, so she never knew how to deal with me when I was younger. And the period-poop, she could not imagine that. Although it was amazing and funy to watch, it is also still amazing how many women are dealing with all of it and do their things.

[@RheaBryson]

Same I was the unlucky girl in the family. Me and my granny and aunt get the bad cramps but my sisters and mother. Barely any discomfort. They thought I was faking. To be fair I was a monster on my period. So I can see why. But no meds were ever given I had to sneak them in the morning and couldn’t take too many otherwise they’d notice. No breaks even if I was on the floor dying. Just bad luck I guess.

[@russelljackman1413]

Mad respect for all you ladies out there--for ALL you have to endure in this life! Well done, Tryers!

Love that this came out on day 13 of my period. You all did good. It sucks and so proud of all of you.

[@EmilyJelassi]

Love that there’s a part 2 of this.. now for the next batch of Tryers! Major props (& gold stars) to George and Darren for getting all the way to 20, but Sean did quite well too, getting up to 15! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻⭐️⭐️⭐️ Once all of the Tryers experience this, I vote for the labor simulator next!! When I was much younger, my period pain was horrendous and I’d be curled up in bed with the heating pad and chocolates. Then during college, I barely had any pain at all. Now the cramps are horrendous again. I have PCOS, so my pain is higher than normal. Probably doesn’t help that I’m a complete wimp when it comes to my pain tolerance..

[@ambsquared]

I’ve gone through PT a few times and got TENS therapy each time. Basically they slowly turn it up until it is uncomfortable, then back a touch. I don’t know numbers, but as the sessions went, I went higher each time. At the right levels you get a massage feeling from it. Not as good as an actual massage, but it can be pretty nice. Edit: I should wait until the end to comment. Yes, “10 Things I hate About You” is really good. My wife and I really like that movie. It is one of the best adaptations of “The Taming of the Shrew”.

[@patriciapeart5752]

You all did very well, now keep the pain going for a week 24 hours a day, doing your job, running to the store, dealing with children, everything you are expected to do for a week with that pain including sleeping. Like I said you did very well. Thank you guys for even trying something like this.

I've got stage 1 endometriosis. I honestly don't know how people with stage 2-4 even survive. I'm part of an online support group for people with endo, and the amount of people who report being on the bathroom floor SCREAMING in pain. I seriously don't know how doctors live with themselves since so many brush off endometriosis as "no big deal" or "normal period pain". We really need more educated/empathetic doctors, affordable/accessible specialists, and a metric shit-ton more treatment options. I pray one day they finally find a cure for this shit.

George is so right when he said "I'm riding on a little horse and it's made of fire and pain!" And the diarrhoea comments were totally en pointe too. Blokes don't half have it lucky on the whole, but it's great that the lads here opted to get a taste of that pain.

Each time these period pain simulator videos came out, the 1st one I was on my period and the day before the video came out I was in the grocery store and had such a horrific cramp I keeled over a bit, and with this video I am a week away from it and already feeling it 😂

Darren is a trooper. Respect. George did also great. Sean took about as much as he could take I believe. So well done. Slightly disappointed in the girls but can't really blame them, because they have the real thing each month for decades. A dear friend of mine is literally incapable of doing anything for 1/2 days each month. It's no joke.

as someone with endometriosis, i'd say level 20 is probably fairly accurate to what i experience every month 😅 sometimes you just gotta do the labour breathing excercises to ride through the pain, and unintentially give yourself blister burns from a thermonuclear hot water bottle to distract from the cramps

I have so many of the videos of men w these simulators. These men handled the absolute best

[@janetlykins295]

When I was younger, I used to get cramps so badly that I would feel them in my lower back, as well as my legs and pelvis. There would be times that my legs would fail me from the pain and I’d fall! Talk about embarrassing for that to happen at school! Or, I’d have so much pain that it would make me physically sick, breaking out in the cold sweats, heaving, waking up on a cold bathroom floor! Endometriosis was not in the vocabulary much, if at all, in the 70s. We just had painful periods. “Here dear….take these two Midol and you’ll feel better”. Bullshit!!!!! I almost didn’t graduate from high school because of this problem, because I was missing a day or two every month ! I actually had to get a doctors letter explaining that I had this condition, and that couldn’t be held against me. At some point in time, it might be interesting to use 4 electrodes. 2 on the pelvis, 2 on the lower lumbar spine area. I DARE ANYONE TO SIT THROUGH THAT! That’s pain compounded by 10. Great shoot guys! Keep ‘em coming!

[@juliannerose7174]

This was surprisingly considerate and just really nice to see. So many videos like this are just for laughs and competition, but it seems like everyone is actually trying to see the world from the various experiences different women have with their periods.

[@b33bug00]

I just have to say most of these machines allow for 2 sets of pads. Next time you need to add another set to the back. I know I love it that I bend over to relieve the pain in the front to have the back start firing up to. I actually have one of these machines to help when I have regular muscle pain and the top level can be similar to my once a year bad period from hades except for the electric burn. Frankly if the pain isn’t bad enough that you loose the ability to tell if your bladder is full you don’t know period pain.

[@MsOSheDidIt]

Also great job done for the tryers here today. Everyone experiences pain differently, everyone has different cramps (some don't even get cramps and I envy them for that), so to be willing to do this video and have an open mind about the other person's experience is a very brave thing to do. You all deserve all of the best chocolates and heating pads and a nice hot bubble bath and a nap.
