Hi,
This problem can be due to pre-menopausal age as during this time there is some depletion of female hormone.
At this age there might be having osteoartheritis changes in joints and some osteoprosis of bones giving rise this problem as well.
Take Calcium, vitamin A and D supplements.
Go for light walking daily.
Ok and take care.
