Leg pain befor period???!


Question: Leg pain befor period!?!?!?
well,my legs always freakin hurt a few days leading up to my period!. I was just wondering if anybody else ever gets this, and what the hell causes it!?!?!?!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
It's called "referred pain"!. Referred pain is pain that happens in an area other than the injured or hurting area!.

Nerves from your spine innervate (lead to) your ovaries, fallopian tubes, and uterus!. Other nerves from the same area innervate your legs!.

When you are preparing to menstruate, your uterus has spasms that feel like pain!.

These pain signals go back and forth between your uterus and your spine!. When they reach your spine, they can also go down other nerves to your legs!.

Sometimes severe leg pain is a sign of ovarian cysts, which can happen when an ovary builds up a follicle but doesn't release the egg!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I did also but before I got my very first period!. Which was like 5 years ago!. I read something online that it's just your menstruation before your period that causes it!. It's normal!. You could probably take pain pills over the counter for it, it might help or it might not since it's natural!. Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
