    Hmm. How old are you? A few of us if not many, did and some got their periods. I have also had this when I get the flu.

      Hi Lana, I'm 56 and had my coil removed about 5 months ago and hadn't had a period for 10 years but doctors said I probably have had the menopause by now 🤔

      Im 55 and it has been a year, but then suddenly I got a period in Aug. ANyhow, if you arent fluey or such and your pelvic and back pain persists, go tell your Dr./Gynie, so that they can check it out. No reason to be in pain. Sort of sucks, I know.smile

    I haven't had periods in 16 yrs but every month I know when it is the middle of the month and when it would have been time for a period - I'm having a hysterectomy Oct 27th

       am happy for you!

      Thanks  marnee, I had the coil fitted 10 years ago instead of a opp and had the coil removed about four months now , but doctors said I shouldn't have no periods now because of my age 56  .

    Hi Anne,

    Yes, I still get those phantum pains, but I am not fully menopausal.  I went 9 (?) months without a cycle, then I had the worst one ever, so I had to start over again. Three months so far.  

    Do you still get GYN checkups?  If you have not been checked in a long while, maybe an appt is due?  Have you had any spotting?  I would definitely get a pap if that happend.  Unless you have had sugery and those parts are gone . . . ?

    So many changes in life our grandmothers and mothers were too shy to talk about. I love that we can come here and talk about things, "improper".  😉

    Be gentle on yourself.  I like warm baths, dryer heated bathrobes, heat pads, and walking during those times of hormonal upheaval. Hope you feel better soon!
