Why do girls get cramps when theyre on their period?
Some women experience pain as their uterus begins to contract and get rid of the excess tissue that is inside of it. These hormones signal for the uterus---a muscle---to contract so that it can release the tissue from within it so that it can prepare to host a possible pregnancy next month. These contractions can cause cramps. ChaCha!
