What Causes Lower Back Pain?

I have had lower back pain for past 2 weeks following a period which came out of the blue after 2 yrs of no periods. I have had menopausal symptoms for past 2 yrs. Im 46yrs old. 36hrs ago I had a diagnostic hysteroscopy and a biopsy was taken. The hysteroscopy was done in an outpatients and nothing untoward was found.
Since yesterday my lower constant back pain is worse - unrelieved by NSAIDs and simple analgesia. No frequency or painful urination symptoms, no fever, just the pain in the back.
Any ideas?

Just get a BMD done. A post meopausal women is more prone to osteoporosis. Also get your Serum calcium and vit D level checked. I am sure you will have hypocalcemia.
Just start calcium and vitamin D tablet like Tab Calcimax Forte once a day.
Along with that take sachet cacirol once a week for e period of 8 weeks if calcium and vitamin D level is very low.
Start some back stretching exercises and also have atleast one glass of milk everyday. I am sure the symptom will get relieved in 1-2 months time.
