lady ache - Lady ache is like being hit by a truck, but it’s inside you

Lady ache is like being hit by a truck, but it’s inside you and it happens every few weeks. It’s not nice. It’s not fair. It’s just mean.

My cousin called me at 3 a. m. crying: 'I just ate a whole pizza and it didn’t help.'

My teacher fell asleep during class. She said it was the lady ache.

My dog started barking at nothing. I think he felt it too.
