What causes abdominal pain before menstruation?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

This is normal. Usually, stomach pain can be caused by a few factors:
1. You have consumed cold drinks 3 to 4 days before your period!
2. You engaged in intense exercise or were overly tired before it started!
3. You ate cold food during your period or frequently used cold water during that time!
These can all lead to lower abdominal pain.
