Skipped a month and bad cramps

Hey peri warriors. 42 and in full peri. Heart palpitations, anxiety, itchy ears, all the loveliness, including wonky periods.

I’m coming off of a skipped cycle. Normal period so far, but man, these cramps are gnarly tonight. Anyone else have this? I’ve only skipped 2 cycles since entering peri, so I’m wondering for those who skip them often, is this something you experience? My thoughts is it’s heavier from the lining build up.
