If your getting cramps does it mean that your period is coming soon?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Usually, not always: It can definitely indicate that your period is going to start, but unfortunately, cramps or pelvic pain are 'non-specific' symptoms, and can indicate many things. Can't say for sure that this time it's due to menses.
