Cramping when aroused?

laurapacheco

So the last week or so I've noticed that when I'm sexually aroused, but not actually doing the deed, I feel some mild menstrual-like cramping. It's not enough that I'm really worried about it & it goes away once things progress past foreplay, but I was just curious if anyone else has experienced that particular sequence of events?

P.S. -- Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Ive noticed that too. Between the cramping beforehand and the BH after, it makes it really hard for me to want to have sex.

No cramping before hand but I do get the BH after

I've gotten BH from dreams. I think I read somewhere any kind of arousal releases oxytocin that can cause contractions, but I might be making that up.

I get SUPER crampy after. My uterus feels like a giant rock and rises out of my stomach almost. But nothing before. That sounds annoying

Im not sure about when arroused but orgasms can cause contractions. I had cramping during sex but not during the prior warm up events. If he was too deep it was painful and I cramped bad if I climaxed.I have IC and on strict pelvic rest now.

Yeah I've heard of a lot of people having cramping after sex... but it sounds like having them during foreplay is unusual. I was thinking that maybe my uterus was tightening in anticipation of the orgasm? I'll ask my doc about it at my next appt.

I have IC Too!  Phew I was starting to feel like the only woman alive to have IC and be pregnant

Sex is painful afterwards, and I have fet a bit of the cramping after an orgasm.  It really makes it difficult to be sexually active with all of this. Not to mention I was just cleared of a low laying placenta, but it still kind of makes me nervous for some reason.
