Period Cramps
Period cramps, also known as menstrual cramps or dysmenorrhea, are painful sensations felt by individuals with a uterus during menstruation. They result from the uterine muscles contracting to shed the uterine lining. The pain can vary from mild to severe and may be accompanied by discomfort in the lower abdomen, back, and thighs. Heating pads, pain relievers, and lifestyle adjustments are often used to manage these cramps and provide relief during the menstrual cycle.
