What causes this leg pain during my period?

Question: Whenever I have my period, I get pain in the front of my thighs, almost like it's a pain in my veins. It comes and goes during the heaviest days of my period and every once in a while on days when I don't have it, though not as painful. I'm in my 40's and this just began a couple of years ago. Thanks!

Answers:
I get that too. Part of it can come from lack of iron or potassium. Taking and extra iron and potassium pill should help. During our periods we loose some of that iron and potassium through the discharge. Any women that is still having a period should always take extra iron. That will also help with the fatigue. It may take a month or so for it to help. Avoid salt and caffeine that will help too.

It's probably caused by battery acid leaking from your vibrator.
