Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.

Cramping in the lower abdomen only during the night , enough to keep you awake with backache and staining through-out this time can be due to mild for of menorrhagia, which you may not be noticing due to being busy throughout the day.

I would advise you to have a direct examination by a Gynecologist and have abdominal and per-vaginal ultrasonography to get a proper diagnosis.
Proper treatment would help you.

IF required the curettage and biopsy may be needed to rule out cancer of the uterus .
I find this answer helpful
