What does it mean if you're having cramps after your period
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Uterus is contractin: The uterus is still contracting and you may have some cramps after your period before the uterus calms down and becomes quiescent. Take ibuprofen for pain relief. Warm compresses may also help Best wishes Dr M
