A member asked:

What could be the cause of painful menstrual cramps but no period?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Painful cramps: There can be a number of reasons for painful menstrual cramps without a period. I suggest that you do a home pregnancy test. If negative and no menses repeat in one week. If still negative and no menses i suggest a blood pregnancy test and a visit to your gyn.
