Your symptoms seem to be related to premenstrual syndrome.

Detailed Answer:
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Your symptoms seem to be related to premenstrual syndrome.

The cramps are a common symptom before the menstruation.

I suggest using muscle relaxants such as Baclofen three times a day.

I also recommend using warm compresses at the area of the cramps to help with the pain.

I also suggest to do a urine pregnancy test to exclude the possibility of a pregnancy.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
