I wouldn't say it's normal, but it can happen. Sexual activity changes the levels of different hormones in your body that affects your menstrual cycle. Your brain makes all the changes in your body–it reacts to certain stimuli and changes your metabolic rates and hormonal activity, which in turn can affect your cycle. That said, you should not be having pain (different than menstrual cramps). Consider whether the sex might be too rough or you are not lubricated enough during sex. If this happens again, see your GYN.
