How come girls suffer from stomach ache at the time of menstrual cycle?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Simple: Cramping of the abdomen during monthly period is called dysmenorrhea and some women have it some do not. It is caused by a substance called prostaglandin and in which case local heat and Ibuprofen drug can be helpful. Of course other explanation exist too such an iud, fibroids, cysts. Etc. So a trip to your obgyn is highly suggested
