Cramps and Ovarian pain...more days than not...a perimenopause symtom?

Hi there,
Im writing to ask if Im not alone in my perimenopausal symptoms of cramping and ovarian pain. Im 45 years old and have been experiencing these problems for roughtly a year now...I have missed a period and had a period twice in one month...but the flow is pretty much the same. I have gone one or two months where I would say 4 days out of 7 I have the cramping...(feels much like Im getting my period). I am bloated...lots of days it is uncomfortable to do up a pair of pants...and even more so to try and lay on my side..where it places pressure on my stomach.
Curious to see if this is usual.
Thanks... Tweet
