Dear Stephanie, first of all I am so glad you are looking for an Integrative Medicine provider.
Based on your posting and without proper history and exam, it is hard to guess what may be causing your pain. Do you remember pulling a muscle? Sometimes a minor wrong move can cause the muscles to stretch the wrong way. I am more concern with the "extreme fatigue" you felt right after your period, is your iron low perhaps? Sometimes there is pain from another area of the body reflecting on another side, but instead of guessing, I suggest seeing a doctor as soon as possible if the pain does not go away with Aleve or another anti-inflammatory.
I just happened to know one of the best doctors in your area. I think Dr Tieraona Low Dog, MD is one of the smartest's doctors when it comes to Women's Health using natural approaches. I just heard her at a conference in California and I tell you, she KNOWS her stuff. She is also one of the Director's at the University of Arizona, Integrative Medicine Center. If you click on the link below you can access her assistant's e-mail and set up time for a consultation. Keep us posted!
