ORS/Endo/perimenopause - trying to make sense of symptoms

Hi,

I know that I am going through perimenopause and I know when I ovulate because of mittelschmertz. I had ovulation pain last Tuesday. Today I am having pain like my "period" has started. (I have ORS and endo + s/p TAH+LSO and later RSO. I have a permanently swollen lymph node in the lower left side that becomes very painful during a "period". Endo was found in the sigmoid colon area during my hyst.)

I understand that cycles vary in length-from period to period during perimenopause. I am wondering- can the length from the time from when you ovulate to the time your period starts get shorter?

Normally, I run 12 days between ovulation and period. In the last couple days I have had hot flashes, mood swings. Normally I have breast tenderness after ovulation. This month, I have none. Does this mean that I am not producing enough progesterone? Would this be why it feels like my "period" has started or can endo act differently and cause this pain prior to the actual period starting.

I appreciate your input.

Thanks! D.N.
