I have recently been experiencing lower back pain.

Have had lower back pain for a few weeks which has now crept up to my shoulders and neck giving me headaches. It eases off during the day when I move around but I wake up stiff and sore and it aches during the night. My teeth are aching and sensitive too. Has anyone experienced this. I am near the end of perimenopause.

I had and still have this problem. When menapause started my body was so stiff and the pain was so bad. I was put under the care of a rheumatologist and I am afraid to say it is osteoarthritis. My lady GP believes it is a lack of estrogen that causes it. The pain is horrible sometimes and I have undergone physio which I do in the mornings. Make sure you get enough calcium and vitamin D too.

Thank you. Yes I have recently had my levels checked and needed iron and vitamin D supplements. I hope your pain eases. :blush:
