A member asked:

I am experiencing excessive menstrual cramps. the following also describe me: pelvic pain, lower abdominal pain, pain during sex, bloating or abdominal fullness, and cramping pelvic pain. what should i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Severe cramps: The symptoms described can be endometriosis, which causes inflammation in the abdomen, and irritation of the lining of the abdomen (peritoneum) by cells from uterus bleeding simultaneously with your period, but inside the abdomen. Oral bcp's can alleviate this pain to a great extent, and preserve fertility, since the inflammation causes scar tissue, which causes pain with sex. See your gyn !
