Im in the freak out zone cause I just had a pregnancy scare, so Im noticing everything! My period should be here anyday but no cramps just lower back pain. I haven't done anything to bring it on myself, I've been pretty lazy actually. just wondering if thats ever a pms thing for some ladies. Thanks ;)

Back pain and muscle cramps in the lower back are very common in PMS. This is simply because the nerves from your uterus attach to your central nervous system here....
take some paracetamol (if you think you may be pregnant, don't take any anti-inflammatories) go to your dr ASAP especially as tis is abnormal for you.

Here, read all you want in the link.
Mood swings, tender breasts, a swollen abdomen, food cravings, fatigue, irritability and depression. If you experience some or all of these problems in the days before your monthly period, you may have premenstrual syndrome (PMS).

Yes, premenstrual as well as menstrual cramps can cause lower back pain. Several of my friends have had this happen on a regular basis with their periods.

Yes, I only get tummy aches but I have heard many other gals say they get, back and leg aches too. Don't worry! It should be fine. If you are still worried consult your doctor.

When my back started to ache I knew it was time for my period.

You can have cramps in your lower back when you're menstruating or about to.
