My periods stopped 4 years ago. However, I am still having period pains and hot flushes. Why could this be?

Period-like pains after all this time are not particularly common but may be caused by stress (this can also trigger hot flushes anytime),  or digestive problems.

I would get this checked out by your doctor as well.
