What are the reasons for pain during menstrual period?
The lining of the uterus, which was ready to receive a fertilized breaks down if there is no fertilized egg to settle down. The muscles of the uterus start to contract in order to move the lining of uterus towards the opening of the vagina. These contractions of the uterus cause pains such as stomach ache and back ache during menstruation. If these pains are very strong, one loses a lot of blood or if the periods continue for more days than usual, one is advised to see a doctor or a health worker.
