Cramping 3 days after after my period. is this normal?

Possible reasons: For cramps after your period can include: remaining prostaglandins in your system after your period – causing continued cramps. Sometimes your period hasn’t actually ended – it has transiently slowed or stopped.

Probably: Premenstrual cramping can be normal for some women as the uterus prepares to expel it's lining, known as a menstrual period. Nsaid are commonly used for treatment.
