Early Gyn/GI consult: Painful cramping after your period is known as secondary dysmenorrhea. It’s more common during adulthood.However, it’s important that you monitor them, especially if they last long. Post-period cramps may be a symptom of an underlying condition. You can expeirence abdominal bloating, constipation, or diarrhea, too. Endometriosis, PID ,Fibroids, Ovarian cyst, Ectopic pregnancy are other etiology.
