anyone get these symptoms? i seem to have period pain and back ache 28 days out of every 30 and also my legs ache everywhere especially at the top of my legs and my calf muscles, it feels like i can almost touch the pain. Although i get these pains in both legs it always is worse on my left side. Anyone else get this and does anyone know what causes it

Chillijava, thought you might find some help info in the thread called 'Help' as it proceeds, there is some talk on muscle twitches and aching legs.

I am not sure if I am going through the same thing, but I have what you are describing. Lately, My periods are heavier. Large clots, and red blood. My left leg hurts, mainly in the calf to the inner left under knee. Both hurt but more on left. My left groin area and left hip and buttocks ache. I am now spotting between periods, with light cramps. Lightish brown spotting.

My mother said she went through menopause around 38. I am 36. I have been feeling "different" now for 3 to 4 years. I don't know if I am going through the change or not. My orgasms are also not the same.

I am going to post this in a seperate thread but do you experience any of this other stuff besides leg pain?
