Hey dear...
Here is your answer..
It's caused by contractions in the uterus, which radiate through the web of nerves within your pelvic region. As your body contracts to rid itself of the uterine lining, it can sometimes press on blood vessels in the area, limiting or cutting off the supply of oxygen to the nearby muscles.
"Many women get back pain during their periods,"This pain is from the uterus contracting to shed the lining which has built up since the last cycle... The phenomenon is described as 'referred pain.'"
Hope it helps you!!!!
