This year I have noticed that some of the low back pain I normally didn't get til about day 3 or 4, just before the heavy bleeding started, can now start creeping in as early as a week before any hint of bleeding occurs. Right now there are lower back twinges and a bit of a headache.
Reading the posts in this forum I guess what we're experiencing is pretty normal for some women at this time of life.
Deep joy!

yes you sound like your having normal peri symptoms. Since I turned 51nothing became normal anymore. My once regular periods stopped being predictable. Will be 53 end of September, still getting my periods. This week it is due and my joints ache like I have arthritis (which I don't). Last month my boobs got sore after my period instead of before lol. Every month is different and occasionally I will skip a month. Last year I had a horrible year with anxiety and feeling like I was dying but vitamin supplements have helped me to have a better year this year. Our bodies are going through a huge change. Some fly right through it with no side effects and others are no so lucky! Hope this eases your mind. Have a great day!

yes I did about 1 1/2 months ago and it was fine and I was taking a vit D3 supplement. Doc said I could cut back so I take it every other day now. I don't get achy too often. This is the first time in awhile that I've felt like this
