Background, I'm 49 with still regular periods, but have period cramping pain month around. The pain ranges from an ache to doubled up with nause agony. I'll possibly get 1, 2 days if I'm lucky pain free. 6 months ago I was scanned, had a D&C, a polypectomy, endometriosis check and nothing has shown up. The Dr says that it's all clear and given me cocodamol for the pain. Along with the "it's just your age" head tilt and smile. Anyone else suffer from this and can give me a bit of advice?
