A member asked:

Could i have period pains in my upper abdomen?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Menstrual pain most commonly occurs in the pelvis and low back, however some people do experience pain in their upper abdomen. If pain was from menses it would only occur during your period and not any other time in the cycle
