Yes, it's normal. They're not really stomach pains, they're cramps, and if you watch to any of those TV commercials for stuff like Midol or Pamprin, you'll see they're normal. There's no reason to think they may be due to your tests.
Hope you feel better soon. B)



Of course it is normal to have cramps and backaches. Those are just symptoms that
should dissapate when you start menstruating. If not then just wait up for the results of your tests.

But for the pain beforehand some over the counter ibuprofen or Tylenol should help.



dont worry. a lot of girls get lower back and lower stomach cramps/ aches. i now i get them. its is completely normal. all you have to do is take some pain relievers. also keep your lower back and lower stomach warm and not exposed to the cold. avoid standing or doing any physical activity. try sitting and lying down while your on your pain relievers. it should go away in 4 - 5 days. take care!



Yes they are just period pains which some girls call them 'cramps'.
You get them before you start you period and sometimes during!
You can get things to help them
- Paractemol
- Hot water bottle
They should help ^
Hope you feel better soon :) x



It sounds like you're just cramping and that is common prior starting the menstrual cycle.

I've pasted a link below with more info on cramping. Hope it helps.

Yup! The stomachaches can be caused by anything from stress to your period. Try ibuprofens like Advil or Motrin.



Yes. This is what girls/women mean when they say they have "cramps" when they get there period. Ibuprofen (Advil) usually helps!
