What Causes Abdominal Cramps During Bowels?

For roughly a month now I have had cramps while pooping. The cramps are not in my stomach, but much lower, just below where I cramp during my period. I am not constipated at all, not gaining or losing weight, no significant changes in my eating habits, not overweight or underweight. However, the cramps are paralyzing for a couple of minutes, then fade. This happens 3-4 times/day.
