Are Severe Menstrual Cramps Sign Of Oncoming Period ?

Would severe Menstrual cramps more likely be a sign of an oncoming period or early pregnancy I am 3 days late for my period and last night I had severe cramps that woke me up when I was sleeping. But still no bleeding . Is this a sign that I will get my period or could this be a pregnancy?

welcome to healthcaremagic
most probably it is premenstrual pain
normal pregnancy usually does not give rise to pain
better you go for preg test and consult gynecologist if needed
