I usually don't experience menstrual cramps during my period. Only once before did I have them, about 6 or 7 years ago. This morning (about a week before my period) I woke up with terrible cramps. So, I have a few questions I'm hoping someone can answer in part or full:
a.) How early before periods can cramps start? As I said, mine came a week before. I always assumed they came a few days before hand. I know it's a naive question, but as I said, I never get cramps, so I have no sense of them or their timing.
b.) Again, I never get them, but suddenly here they are. Does this happen to anyone else, getting cramps out of the blue and so long between?
