Is there anything like post-menstrual pain?
Many women experience abdominal cramping before or during their menstrual cycle. Yet, it's also possible to have post-period cramps. Painful cramping after your period is known as secondary dysmenorrhea. It's more common during adulthood.
Can you have both pre and post-menstrual syndrome?
Still, so many women getting post-menstrual syndrome symptoms can't be wrong. More than 90% of women report that they get PMS, while only around 10% of women are believed to experience post-menstrual syndrome, that is to say, they get the same symptoms after their periods instead of before.
