Does anybody else get lower back pain with PMS?

I Have lower back pain before and during my Period and it hurts BAD! but I take aleve and usually it will help it.. I have PMS before durng and a week after my period LOL I feel bad for my Fiance and Family but they love me so they deal with it. I am sorry to Hear that your lower back pain is like agony for you. I hope you find some type of rememdy to help with that maybe a nice bath or one of those eletronic heating pads to stop your muscles from tensing up ( just a Thought). Sincerely, Crissy Stay blessed!

i used to when i was younger. but not anymore. i think it stopped when i started taking yoga and pilates. it strengthened my lower back and posture since i had a bad posture anyway. and, when you have your period and your are bloated and uncomfortable, it also helps to lie on your back, on a hard floor, and put your legs up on something, like couch or table and stool. make sure your legs are straight and out and slanted up. and your lower back is planted firmly to the floor. and relax. it has always helped me. it relieves the pressure off your lower back. also, try to strengthen your abdominal muscles. that will also help relieve lower back pain and problems.

I don't get that, but you are definitely not alone. I know many women who have this issue...and I bet you're right, your endometriosis makes it worse. Check with your doctor first, but if you are not already taking it, Vitamin E can do wonders for symptoms involving women's PMS and menstrual periods. It helps me greatly, and I know lots of doctors recommend it for women with endometriosis. I hope you feel better soon!

I actually the week before my period have to limit my sodium, it is horrible if I eat too much of it. My lower back kills me. I also started doing yoga everyday to help that and it really does. I also stop eating so much dariy before then too it makes pms really bad. So just be very careful with what you eat! I know your pain honey. 8 mile run? Thats amazing! You go girl!
