It seems that ever since I started IF treatments, I have had terrible cramps with AF (even on the off months). It is so painful Crying  Why oh why?!?

    I feel your pain (literally!). ?I never had bad cramps before, just some mild ones the day before my period. ?For some reason, they're getting worse. ?This month, I was in so much pain that I took a Tylenol 3 that I had left from my ER. ?It didn't even take the edge off. ?Ugh!

    I so know how you feel!!!!  I hardly ever got cramps with AF, just very minor ones until my first few AF's during treatment had to be induced with provera, and I swear I've never felt pain like that before in my life.  Literally, made me cry out in pain...  My OB rx'd darvocet for me and that didn't help AT ALL!!!  It was just terrible...  Thankfully I haven't had to induce AF in a few months and she's been kinder to me lately, but still not nearly pain free.  Still get those cramps that just take your breath away a few times a day for the first few days... Sad  Ugh...  I hate IF...

    My RE explained that it's because I never ovulated before I started IF treatments.  My periods have gotten a lot heavier and more painful since I started ovulating.  This month I didn't ovulate and AF was brought on my Provera.  I didn't have any cramps and it was light the whole time.  So weird!
