A few days out of the month my whole body gets really sore (ie bones and joints my back cramps, my legs cramp) during the first three days of my monthly period is this normal, is any way to keep this from happening next month? and do other women get this as well? Thanks ahead of time!

I get this too - what really helps is the Pill. It evens out your hormones and really reduces all the menstrual symptoms (cramps, soreness, breast tenderness, headaches, etc.)

Oh yeah it is very normal. Since your body is going through it's whole hormonal thing, it's letting you know, period time. About 7 days before my period comes on my back hurts, stomach hurts, legs and head as well as bloating. But then once your period comes on the aches and pains go away. Most women experience this before their periods, and midol or advil works. Also try exercising or stretching and hot baths when you start feeling these pains or even before. It helps to relax your muscles and the baths can get rid of your mood swings if you have any. Good luck with them and hope the pains start to go away!!

I know my back and breast can get sore just before my period. Muscle cramps in general can be reduced by taking an anti-inflammatory like Advil. Also, make sure you're drinking enough water...dehydration can cause muscle cramps too.

a lot of women get this. i used to till i had a IUD inplanted. As soon as it was removed i got the aches back and it stinks.
Its hormones... ask your doctor if BC can help relieve the pain.
