Its been a long time since I have experience symptoms of a pending af but since I am on the provera, I have been suffering!

My back is the absolute worst part and thinking back, it always has been with my cycles. Whenever I got cramps, they were mild and when they werent, midol worked wonders within minutes, but my back is HORRID! No matter what I take, or what I do...the pain is so deep within. I mentioned this to my RE and although she did seem a bit concerned, its not something she focused on too much.

Anyone else experience this? I know they found out years later that my mom had endo (when they were doing her hysterectomy) and that it adhered to her back and thats why she always had such bad back aches..anyone ever hear any other reasons why your back can be so bad during your cycle?
