Hi,

I guess your concern is about painful period and getting pregnant. Firstly let us discuss about your menses problem. Usually in a normal cycle of menses it is common to have cramps in waist, it is usually bearable n disappear with time. Every women goes through this stage. You are also a part of it, so don't worry. You have not shared, how old are you. At present, what is your age? Usually girls start menses at the age of 12-14 yrs, at this time they have painless menses. After 2-3 years it changes to painful menses. This is normal nature's rule. Your body is following normal natures rule. So every month, every women at this stage have to pass through this psychological /patience test. But sometimes it will have unbearable pain.

Some people take pain killer for severe pain. Just imaging every women, every month at the stage taking pain killers, so the over the period of time, they become dependent on pain killers. Pain killers have their own side effects. At this stage of menses every women should be mentally strong and avoid pain killers. So I said its psychological/ patience test.

Secondly now let us discuss about you being pregnant? You have told that your expected menses in the month of December got postponed to January. In some women there will be delay in menses. The reason is stress, poor nutrition etc that your menses delayed. If women has her menses on expected date or delayed date- this rules out being pregnant.

You too have got menses at present. So, relax, you are not pregnant. You can have tension free life. Anyways you can try out my suggestions:

1. BE POSITIVE, BE MENTALLY STRONG. You will be getting cramps in waist during menses. if pain is unbearable, u can take pain killers, but don't develop this habit. Being mentally strong solves your 95% problem. Inspite of pain killer still you have pain, so I suggest you to visit nearby gynecologist, to see what abnormal thing is going on.

2. If the menses occur, pregnancy test after 5-6 days of missed period. This urinary pregnancy kit available in your nearby medical store at affordable prices. You can get it and do it yourself. if in this test it is negative, you can relax for not being pregnant, if positive visit to nearby gynecologist for further help.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Sudha Rani Panagar
