Menstrual cramps are common but not a normal part of healthy menstruation, it should be noted that most women can prevent menstrual cramps and that severe menstrual cramps may be a sign of a serious underlying health problem. Menstrual cramps are a result of hormone-like chemicals that cause uterine contractions, in too high quantities they cause the blood vessels in the uterus to contract so starving the uterus of oxygen - a little like a heart attack - and thus the pain.
