Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXX
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
At 56, you might be undergoing perimenopausal symptoms, so the cramping maybe due to the changes in your system.
If the Advil is not relieving you, yes , go get a sonogram, and an internal exam.
All the best.
Please feel free to discuss further.
