A member asked:
Is it normal to have sharp stabbing pains 7 days before my period. it's clock work 7 days i know i will start. what causes this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not normal , but...: No, I wouldn't say it's normal, but it sounds like pain from your corpus luteum, which is what the follicle becomes after ovulation. If you are not wanting pregnancy, you might consider ovulation suppression with birth control pills.
