Absoloutley yes, if I hadn't had a total hysterectomy I would swear a period was about to happen, horrible dragging pulling deep ache - so reminiscent of past times for some reason. Not nice.

Yes, often. I use a heating pad between navel and groin and that seems to help. If not I take OTC pain med. Same thing I did when I was 16 to relieve the cramps and discomfort. Sometimes I have such a burning feeling I think my colon is inflamed. Scared me. Colonoscopy ruled that out so now it's the heating pad when the cramps occur.

Yes. And hormones make IBS worse so it's worse at that time of the month too
