Hello,
Your history is suggestive of Pelvic inflammatory disease.
There may be infection in your uterus.
Backache and lower abdominal pain is classically associated with PID.
Change in the colour menstrual blood is also in favour of PID.
Maintain good Perineal hygiene. Recurrence is very common.
A course of antibiotic should taken to eliminate the infection.
