Severe Menstrual Pain and Heavy Bleeding: Is it Normal?

I am a 21 year old female, I have been put on birth control because since I was young I've had very bad period pains, it even gets to my leg and makes it weak and I have collapsed many times cause of it. I bleed very heavy for 8-10 days and I can barely move, I've been on blood thinners and so many pain killers. is this normal? many of my friends barely have any pain at all. idk what to do....

I get horrible periods and after seeing a doctor, they just said that it is what it is. I have thrown up from the pain before. I just learned I might have Fibromyalgia though which would explain it but still not fix it. It sucks

PLEASE go to the doctor, that is not normal in the slightest. It’s possible you could have endometriosis or some other underlying condition
