I haven't had a period for 2 years, but some months I get all of the symptoms of PMS. I have nagging back pain, sweats, and I could sleep for the whole week. I only have these symptoms and I wondered if this is normal?

Period pains without a period is very common, even after all this time there can still be a hormonal 'cycle'. It is  not high enough to trigger a bleed anymore but still high enough to give PMT symptoms.

It can take a few years, even after your periods have stopped, for your hormones to settle down. You may find a daily magnesium supplement can help with this.

However, if the pains get worse or they are starting to affect your daily life, it would be best to get it checked by your doctor as well.
