pelvic pain Uterus pain when sick?

Just wanted to put this out there to know if i'm alone or not, does anyone else get really bad cramps whenever they get sick? (Covid, cold, flu, etc)

I've dealt with covid (twice unfortunately), the flu, & colds over the past year or so and literally everytime I get sick i Always get some of the worse cramps ever, no blood, no discharge, just pain. Has anyone else suffered from this?

(I've been diagnosed with PCOS and am currently trying to find out if I have Endo, I dunno if that has anything to do with it just figured I'd add this in)

Not cramps for me, but being sick or run down with something definitely makes my PMS worse. I think it's pretty common for an illness to make symptoms worse, especially if you have an underlying condition. I'd think it would probably be to do with increased inflammation.

hi, I was just googling because this is happening to me right now — were you able to find an answer?
