Menstrual Cramps — More intense since having Covid. Anyone else?

To loop back. I met with my OBGYN for annual well visit and shared my experience (noted above). She ordered an ultrasound if my next period is the same as she agreed changes are odd when you run like clockwork and then suddenly things change. She said that if period goes back to normal not to do ultrasound as it could have been just because of acute covid phase. However, if it doesn’t then it’s clear something with civid post acute phase is still symptom that should be investigated. She said when you have changes in bleeding/bleed in between periods/bleed less or more etc that is when she’s recommend an ultrasound. She appreciated me sharing my symptoms as it helps her understand potential issues. It’s clear we are all learning together with our practitioners on all of this.

I also had issues with much more painful cramps post covid. It didn't get better even after a year post rona, so I made a plan with my doc and decided to get an IUD. It's been extremely helpful.
