A ligament is the tissue that connects two bones to form a joint. It's tough and fibrous, which means that when it tears, a ligament can take quite a while to heal and might even require surgery. Ligament comes from the Latin ligare meaning to bind, tie, which is precisely what a ligament does. Ligaments only connect bones to bones. Ligaments allow for range of motion. Think of how your knee or elbow is able to move up and down like a hinge. That's thanks to the ligaments connecting the bones to form knee and elbow joints.
Cramping is one of the most common symptoms a woman experiences before, during or after her menstrual cycle. Caffeine contributes to cramps because of its diuretic nature--it increases urine production and promotes dehydration. In addition, coffee contains oils that may inflame your intestines and cause cramping. Fibrocystic breast syndrome is a condition that many women suffer before or during a menstrual period.
Best Answer: Yes, for many women this does help their cramps! It is not necessarily the sex itself, but rather having an orgasm from sex. I've interviewed hundreds of women and girls about menstrual cramps and about 10% said that having an orgasm helped.
