On And Off Cramps Like That Of Menstrual, No Periods, Fluttering In Lower Abdomen. What Is Going On ?
I am a 44 year old female. My last period was May16, 2013. I have been experiencing what seems like menstral cramps on and off for the last 2 months but no period. During this same time, almost everything I eat makes me feel bloated. Over the last month I've started feeling a fluttering feeling in my lower abdomen. All pregnancy tests have come back negative. Any idea what's going on? Just a little background....in October 2012 I had sepsis which stemed from a urinary tract infection.....in April 2013 I had my gallbladder removed.

hi... you have irregular menstruation and pain abdomen with bloated sensation.. you are nearing to menaupause, that could be the reason for irregular menstruation.. pain abdomen and bloated sensation is due to the cholecystectomy, that will lead to fat intolerance, so you need to restrict fat intake and increase protein and carbohydrate intake, see your dietician for diet chart.. all the very best..
