If sex is supposed to help with cramps...why does sex tend to make me cramp up, regardless of what time of the month it is?

It could be caused by a yeast infection. I know that when I've got one, sex is excruciating.

It's not painful, it's just crampy...I guess for lack of a better word. Take cramps and minus the pain, just leave the feeling

Hmm... could it be from orgasm? Sometimes the muscle contractions can make it painful. Either way, you should probably talk to your doctor.

Could it be that some people are just more sensitive down there than others?
It used to happen to me sometimes. From being too rough. Maybe you should just stick to clitoral stimulation.

First, where are you feeling "crampy"?

feels like around my ovaries - both sides down low.

Could be his penis hitting your cervix. That commonly causes a crampy or stomach ache feeling.

If you would rather not stop having sex, try not having him go so deep. If things of that sort don't help, try talking to a doctor.

It's not the sex that helps, it's the orgasm. It takes your uterus out of spasm, at least temporarily. I've gotten moderate relief from it. I would recommend manual masturbation, however, over intercourse, because then you don't necessarily have to have penetration, which can increase discomfort rather than abate it.

Best of luck.

i used to get this quite often, i found it was only really with deep penetration (which was most of the time because he was quite ... long). I think it's when it hits the cervix, it causes you to cramp up... reflex i suppose. if that's what it is, experimenting with different angles can help.

Orgasm used to make my cramps worse... that is, the orgasm itself would feel great, but then I'd get bad cramps right after. That was my best measure of figuring out when my period was coming! But since going on the Pill, I haven't experienced that as much.
