  • A comparison table titled “Adenomyosis vs Regular Period Pain” (comparison of adenomyosis symptoms vs dysmenorrhea symptoms and painful periods) shows differences across symptoms, with three columns labeled Symptom, Adenomyosis, and Period Pain (Dysmenorrhea). It explains that adenomyosis is caused by the uterine lining growing into the wall of the uterus (adenomyosis causes), while period pain is caused by excess prostaglandins that trigger uterine contractions (menstrual cramps). Bleeding in adenomyosis is very heavy (heavy menstrual bleeding) with clots larger than a 2-cent coin and periods often last longer than 7 days (long menstrual cycles), whereas period pain typically involves moderate to heavy bleeding lasting 3 to 5 days. Pain in adenomyosis is described as heavy, dragging, and constant pressure (chronic pelvic pain), with pelvic tenderness or fullness even between periods, while period pain causes sharp, wave-like cramps (period cramps) with no discomfort between cycles. Relief for adenomyosis requires long-term medical management (adenomyosis treatment), while period pain usually responds well to NSAIDs (period pain relief). Additional symptoms of adenomyosis include an enlarged uterus, chronic pelvic pain, pain during intercourse, bloating, and infertility, whereas period pain may include blood clots, mood swings, bloating, nausea, vomiting, lightheadedness, pain radiating to the lower back or thighs (lower back pain during periods), loose bowel movements, and constipation.

  • A clean, informative infographic titled “Managing Stress & Period Pain at Work” explains how workplace stress, period pain, and menstrual cramps are connected, showing that high stress can worsen cramps by increasing pain-causing prostaglandins, and outlines practical stress management at work strategies to support menstrual health and workplace wellbeing. The graphic is structured into four numbered sections with simple icons and step-by-step guidance: first, “Normalise the Conversation,” encouraging employees to let their manager or team know when they are unwell, highlighting period pain at work, menstrual health awareness, and how acknowledging pain reduces mental stress and leads to less pain signalling; second, “The 5-Minute Brain Break,” showing stepping away from a screen and practising box breathing, with inhale for four seconds, hold for four seconds, and exhale for four seconds, to support stress relief, nervous system regulation, and pain management; third, “Take Micro-Breaks,” recommending a two-minute walk every hour to improve blood circulation, reduce pelvic pressure, and ease menstrual discomfort during the workday; and fourth, “Prioritise Your To-Do List,” suggesting shifting high-pressure tasks and focusing on low-stress work to ease anxiety, support mental health at work, and manage painful periods. The infographic concludes with a highlighted “Golden Rule” stating that reducing stress levels helps reduce period pain, reinforcing the link between stress reduction and better menstrual wellbeing.

  • A vertical infographic titled “Period Pain Relief Tips” on a dark blue background explains four approaches to managing Period Pain, menstrual pain relief, period cramps treatment, and Dysmenorrhea (painful periods): (1) “Attack the Source,” stating that NSAIDs for period pain reduce Menstrual Ache by blocking excess prostaglandins that cause uterine over-contraction, shown with an image of a pill in a hand; (2) “Restore the Flow,” explaining that menstrual cramps result from low oxygen in uterine muscles and that heat therapy for period pain and gentle stretching for cramps help improve circulation, illustrated with a hot water bottle and a person stretching; (3) “Lower the Inflammation,” noting that high sugar and salt worsen Period Pain, while magnesium for period cramps and omega-3 for menstrual pain help reduce inflammation, shown with images of leafy greens and flaxseeds and a person holding their abdomen in discomfort; and (4) “The Diagnostic Threshold,” explaining that persistent severe period pain may signal underlying conditions such as endometriosis, adenomyosis, uterine fibroids, or PCOS and should be medically evaluated, concluding with branding that reads “Stop The Period Pain”, “Stop Period Pain”, the website painfulperiods.in, and an image of a smiling female doctor in a white coat.
