Hi... I am 18 and a female. I have been having muscle spasms all over my body... I have a lot of problems with anxiety and it is making that 10 times worse.... It feels like the muscles in my abdomin and pelvis are constantly moving around, but I m not pregnant. However, I have a huge fear/anxiety of getting pregnant, so of course this is making that worse. A lot of the time, after I notice it, I have gas... Can you have gas that often?? Or is it because I m not taking in enough magnesium and I m just having muscle spasms????? And I should have my period in a few days, so could that have to do with it?? My mom is a nurse and thinks it s just stress, but I still can t get it out of my head.... Help?
Hello, These types of cramps are a normal thing 4-5 days before periods, this occurs to prepare uterus to shed off its lining epithelial. There is evidence that stress is related to increase in severity and duration of cramps. You need to get a screening ultrasonography to screen for pod. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care
