Really bad menstrual cramps... why?


Question Posted Friday November 24 2006, 2:28 am

So my boyfriend and I had unprotected sex less than a week ago and I took the morning after pill. This pill could make my period come late and I may get cramps after taking it. Well, after I took the pill I was perfectly fine, and I've gotten my period on schedule. However, I'm having incredibly painful cramps. I'm taking midol every six hours, and it only gives me slight relief for about 20 minutes. I'm wondering if I could be having a miscarriage, or if this morning-after pill I took is having side-effects almost a week later. I usually have a very easy menstrual cycle, with little cramps, normal bleeding etc. Now I'm hardly bleeding and having killer cramps. Does anyone know what I could possibly be going through? If it helps, I'm 16 years old. Thanks in advance.

If the pill said it could cause cramps, then that's your problem. I doubt you are having a miscarriage, because if you were you would most likely be bleeding heavy. Keep taking midol and lay with a heating pad over your stomach. If the cramps continue after your period is over, tell someone.

no no no honey its none of that. these cramps are normal since you took the morning after pill your body is trying to re-ferbish itself and replenish your body to fix it, when you take the morning after pill it fucks up your body and your body is trying to adjust itself back to the way it was. your okay, its normal. but if you really want those cramps to go away get on birth control go to planned parenthood and get on the bc, trust me! you will be amazed with the results. no more cramps, and heavy periods. i had horrible horrible cramps. but when you get horrible cramps like that, get a heating pad and rest it on your ovaries, it will comfort your ovaries and the blood clots will loosen and it wont hurt as much, and you wont have to take so much midol. talk to your mother about this and tell her you want to get on birth control because your cramps are killing you, and when you see a gyno- she will tell you the same thing. your okay hun. you can relax.

I don't think its a miscarriage. Its maybe just cramp. Take some more midols and if the pain is excrutial and continues then I suggest you should see a doctor.
-good luck.

* (for the comment below)by the way 16 might be consider a young age to be having sex but most kids have sex when they're around 14*
