What Causes Painful Bowel Movement During Menstruation?
Good Evening. This is incredibly embarrasing. Some helpful info...I'm 35 and have given birth to 2 heathly children (not twins) in my twenties. No pregnancy or vaginal birth complications. I have been off birth controls pills for about 1 year now. I have pelvic pains prior to my period and during my period, it is extremely painful to have a bowel movement. It feels as if someone is squeezing my colon during my cycle. This past cycle was more painful on my colon/intestines and strangely enough I know have sciatica issues that are causing sharp stabbing pains in my uterus as well as on my bottom and down my right leg. Could these issues all be related? Thank you for your time. Warm Regards, Abby
