A member asked:

I have had abdominal/lower back pain for the last few days. the pain is from a mild ache to shooting pains. i'm nauseous. not pregnant. pd 2 days late?

Maybe premenstrual: This would be the simplest explanation, with just a slight delay of your period. Don't be so quick to eliminate pregnancy, either normal or ectopic. Other considerations are infection, endometriosis, gastroenteritis.

Probably not related: It's unlikely that these 2 problems have anything to do with each other. You should see your doctor about the back pain, and if your period is still late you can ask about that too. Good luck.
