During your period, your uterus contracts to help shed its lining. These contractions are triggered by hormone-like substances called prostaglandins. Higher levels of prostaglandins are associated with more severe menstrual cramps.Some people tend to have more severe menstrual cramps without any clear cause. For others, severe menstrual cramps may be a symptom of an underlying medical condition.
Cramps that are really bad may be a sign of: Pelvic Inflammatory Disease — an infection in your reproductive organs. Endometriosis — a condition where the lining of your uterus grows outside of your uterus. Adenomyosis — when the tissue that lines your uterus grows into the muscle wall of your uterus.If your period pain is really bad, and over-the-counter medicine doesn’t help, talk with your doctor. They can help with other ways to manage the pain, or they may want to check to see if there’s something more serious going on.
