I don't know if my question has anything to do with pms, but, I hope someone can answer this for me...

Whenever I have my period I get really bad cramps. And just recently (about 2 or 3 months or so) I've been noticing that I get really bad cramps all the time now. And it's not my stomach either. They're always like my pms cramps, and in the same place. And it's constant, I don't feel them all the time, but a lot of the time. Is that normal?

When I got a UTI (it was actually a yeast infection in my urethra -- eek) I thought I had the most horrific cramps, and it was really just pain in that general area that I thought was cramps, because I'd never had any other pain in that area of my body before (other than cramps.) I'd had "cramps" (that were actually just pains in my bladder) for about a week. Got it checked out, felt ten times better the next day.

Any pain that lasts as long as yours has deserves to be checked out by a doctor. *You* don't deserve to be in pain that long.

no, that's not normal. you shouldn't be in pain for that long- get an appointment with the doctor as soon as you can! just to second the emotion of the responder above.

Agreed. If you've got really bad menstrual cramps, you should check with your doctor just to be checked (they may be able to help you find out what you can do to help them as well as seeing if there's anythign wrong or if it's just you get nasty cramps).

But you should NOT be in pain constantly. You need to see a doctor about that, and the sooner the better.
