Cramps on C/D 8 (not trying to conceive)

So, I'm 41. I came off all contraception back in January, my partner and me use condoms. As a bit of background I'm a mum of 2 boys (11 and 6) and other than TTC I've always used microgynon other than the last 2 years when I had the implant. I had an ovary and fallopian tube removed when I was 15 due to a large cyst.

My cycle is roughly 26/27 days and my periods are heavy for the first 2 days with terrible period pains but my periods only last 4 days. Anyway, I've noticed for the last 3 months I've been very crampy 3 or 4 days AFTER my period. It literally feels like I could be due on again.
I know it's too early for ovulation so I'm really at a loss as to what it could be. I take sertraline for health anxiety and I'm trying desperately to stop myself from falling into a Google hole.
If I'm still having these pains in a few days I'll contact the GP was just wondering if anyone has similar.

Thanks in advance
