Dear friend, welcome to Healthcaremagic!
I am Dr. Prasad Akole (Critical Care Expert- http://bit.ly/Dr-Prasad-Akole) and am glad to address to your query here.

Pain after or during the periods are more likely to be dysmenorrhea than a stone problem.
The USG has ruled out any uro-genital structural abnormality. A urinary tract infection/ pain would occur anytime and not specifically after the cycles.
Please see your gynaecologist and try suggested medicines for dysmenorrhea first.
