Hi,
I’m 2 years into menopause. Not on HRT…. yet. Started having on/off cramp like ache? Almost like a dull period pain? Had it for a few days then it disappeared. A few weeks later it’s back? The ache can be also in my groin/vagina. Anyone any idea as what it is? Seeing my GP but couldn’t get an appointment for 10 days. Thanks for any advice.

Are you still having periods? When I started missing periods I sometimes would get the period pains as if I was going to start but didn't.

[Michelle44]

No. Not having periods now. Stopped almost two years ago. I read somewhere that it could be something called atrophy?

[Dierdre]

Atrophy can cause lots of different symptoms, drynesss, soreness, bladder problems and aching if the pelvic floor has weakened and you have a slight prolapse. Your GP will be able to see if this is the cause when examined.
