It sounds to me like you are having normal symptoms from your period. You may not have experienced them before, but are now due to a change in your hormones. As time passes, our hormones change and so do the symptoms we experience with our cycles. I am 27 and have bad cramping, bloating, and hot flashes a week before and during my period. Some women go through this and some don't. I would not be concerned about menopause just yet. If your period becomes really irregular or nonexistent, then you might have a chance of being near menopause, but even the irregular periods are normal for many women. Menopause typically comes after 40. Hope this helps!
