Menstrual Cramps
Menstrual cramps
For some women, menstrual cramps are debilitating, while others experience only mild discomfort during their period. Pain at the time of menses occurs in all but it is most common in teenager girls who have just begun with their menstrual cycles, and with time the severity subsides gradually. Sometimes cramps are also caused by conditions like endometriosis, fibroid tumors, pelvic adhesions, and ovarian cysts or due to an intrauterine device (IUD) for birth control.
