I am getting worried about this symptom. I hope someone else has the same feeling. Every few weeks for about 3 days right at the top of my stomach it almost feels like I have been punched. It doesn't go away in those 3 or so days it only lessens a little. Of course I goggle it and think I have pancreatic cancer. I have had an upper abdomen CT scan and it dis not show anything but I still worry.

    Hi Dear,

    Pain in the abdomen after your period may indicate gastric problems. The most effective is to take painkillers available at the pharmacy without a prescription, which bring relief to most women. Also, relief in stomach pain and cramps in the abdomen can be brought by warm, local compresses, gentle abdominal massage, preferably with the use of lavender oil, which has a relaxant effect. I hope this will help you

    hey

    everything points to Cancer when you Google it. I had the same feeling then acid reflux, trapped wind finally had an endoscopy and it was all clear.

    Get it checked out by your dr to be on the safe side. I was in and out for over a year until I got a referral.
