I was wondering if anyone else has ever had this.When I get cramps during my period,sometimes I also get the same kind of cramping feeling in my thighs when the pelvic cramps arise.Sometimes its only in one thigh,sometimes it's both.But it happens at the same time I get pelvic cramps.Why does that happen?And is it normal?

it could mean a few different things so I would check with a doctor but there are a couple possibilities that come to mind.

it could be due to when your abdominal muscles contract they are 'pulling' on your thigh muscles and causing pain. also it could be endometriosis if the pain is in your upper thigh (sometimes it hurts in places other than where the problem is)

it could also be a coincidence.

Hi there,


I've heard pain in ur thighs can be a sign of a cyst,but I've also heard they generally clear up on there own,so I think if it gets worse (coz right now its just annoying) then maybe i'll check in with my dr.As far as your situation goes,is the blood actually

Hi Hollie and welcome.


The cramping in your thighs that you mentioned could be a few different things.
