A member asked:
What might be the reason(s) for why i have menstrual cramps a week after my period ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ovulatory pain: Some women get a little cramping when they ovulate this is called " Mittelschmertz" about 20% of women get this mid cycle for a day or so. Some women can identify which ovary is releasing the egg, by the side the pain localizes too! This is not harmful, and you can take regular otc meds as ibuprofen if the pain warrants.
