What Causes Severe Abdominal And Back Pain During Perimenopause?

i have been reading about cramps during perimenopause . I have not had a period since May 2014. I would say up to two years before that I was experiencing debilitating cramps in the middle of the cycle. My Dr said it is pain caused by the release of the egg. (german name I cannot remember). Right now I am experiencing cramping both abdominal and back that actually kept me awake most of last night. Is this normal? I should mention I am 54.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this premenopause or menopause producing of egg is just out of question and this would be very unlikely, the cramp could be due to something else and to rule out this the way is to get done the ultrasonography test, this may not be normal one, cramp could be due to abdominal colicky pain, wait for some time this would come around, hope this information helps, take care.
I find this answer helpful
