Digestive issues when on my period?

[DeliveredByKiki]

Last few have been like this - I get horrible trapped wind and high up stomach pains and bloating the first few days of my period, it’s been very painful this time - is it just some new joyous side effect or should I get it checked out? My diet doesn’t particularly change and this is probably only the 3rd month or so it’s been like this

How are your periods generally? Are they heady or painful? While hormones can upset your system it could be endometriosis.

No not really, the only change has been the stomach pain

Have you tried buscapan? It is available from the pharmacist and good for both period pain and ibs.
