Some level of gas is normal, but when excessive gas gets trapped, it can lead to bloating and pain. If you have noticed that you’re passing gas more frequently, pay close attention to your diet. The pain comes from built-up gas that has nowhere to go, increasing the amount of pressure. When it comes to menstruation, certain hormones trigger muscle contractions, which help the body expel the lining of your uterus. If your cramps are severe or occur when you’re not menstruating, seek a professional opinion.
