A member asked:

Could you explain why does a woman's stomach hurt when she has her periods and what are some ways to prevent it and some home remedies to cure it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See your doctor: The causes and treatments for painful periods vary. You should work out a plan with your doctor. You should at least determine the cause before deciding on home remedies.
