Answer
Hi Precious again,
sometimes some bloodclots remain in the uterus.
At the time of the menstruation these are driven out. As the connection with  the vagina is
tiny, the uterus needs much force to get these clots out. This causes the cramps.
The uterus cleans itself always.
I think this will not happen again. So no worry.
The bleeding also quickly gets less.
Bye for now,
Dr Shan
