Hello!

Just a quick question: Why do I get mild cramps after an orgasm? Nothing bad, it just feels slightly like small period cramps after the orgasm.

Thanks, have a lovely day!

One of the things that happens during orgasm is that the muscles around the vagina contract, which for some people can result in a cramping feeling. If the pain is severe then it's something to check in with a doctor about, but since you're describing just mild pain it's likely just the result of those muscle contractions.
