I doubt it is any worse than other vaccines, I've had no cause to get any other vaccines as an adult to notice any side effects. The issue is the medical gender gap - that very, very few studies record menstural cycle disturbances even though it's a key metric of health in people who menstruate. That needs to change.
Menstrual cycle disturbances seem common after any immune response (vaccine or illness) what I haven't seen is whether this is particularly worse or longer-lasting with the covid vaccines. Other theories I've read are that lock-down lifestyle changes and underlying stress of the pandemic are also contributing.
