Brief Answer:
Not related to detox diet.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor service.
I read your query and here is my advice.

I don't think this period changes and cramps are related to detox diet. It is supposed that detox diet has an overall good effect on your health.
This menstrual changes are possibly related to hormone imbalance and if you are around 50 this may be related to premenopause.
Also stress may be a cause of hormone changes that cause irregular periods.

Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
