How old are you Lovebug? Changes in periods are usually one of the first signs of peri menopause. Back pain isn't one of the signs though so I would get this checked out in case you have the beginnings of a kidney infection especially as you say in your last post that you are feeling very tired.

My periods waxed and waned from the mid-1990s and stopped 2002.  I would go for months without a bleed then have a row of 3-4 months 'regular' again.  Then eventually they disappeared  :bounce:.  I still get occasionally pre-bleed symptoms and think "Oh No! not after all these years!" but there is never a bleed.
