Im having really bad leg and back pain, and I'm not even on my menstruation!


Question: Im having really bad leg and back pain, and I'm not even on my menstruation period yet, why is this?
It's been happening for about a week, and I know I'm getting close to my period, but it hasn't happened yet, and I just want to know what's causing it , and if it means I'm getting close to my period.

Answers:

It is common to get bad leg and back pain when you are almost getting your menstrual cycle. The reason is because your hormones are basically going "crazy" and in preparation for your menstruationn.

For me personally, I get really bad leg cramps as if I had walked a thousand miles, yet they still feel restless. PMS and cramps are passed through genes, so it's best to ask your mother or anyone related to you, if they have similar problems.

I know you didn't ask this, but a good reliever for the leg pain is to elevate your legs. For instance, when you are sleeping, put a pillow and rest your legs on top of it. Also it's good to massage out your legs and back to relieve the stress.

Good luck!
