I'm 48 and I have gone as long as 7 months without a period and then all of a sudden here the b***h come I have lower back pain have experience hot flashes out of no where then I get cold and I have mood swings not where I'm going off ,but I get very irritated then I calm down like nothing was wrong I was so happy without my cycle
Same thing is happening to me I've been regular for 28 days I had hot flashes like last year but now I'm 13 days late on my period I took two pregnancy tests and one at the Dr all negative! I feel different I feel tired a little heart racing I'm forgetting things other than that I'm fine
I'm 46 & this is the 2nd week with no period. I am feeling sick to my stomach, with some cramping here & there but still no period. I am also having the same symptoms that I did 18 yrs ago when I was pregnant with my daughter. Could it be stress or menopause?
OMG me too I was 45 in may I'm about to be married on Saturday boxing day then boom periods is now five days late, a little cramping but no regular period symptoms like tender breasts etc, I took three pregnancy tests all negative, yes I've been forgetting a lot I noticed that sometime aback I will now put my keys down and can't find it! I've become a bit moody and also a lot calmer, I am also awake a lot earlier and I have difficulty having a whole night's rest, also I'm urinating a lot sometimes I have to run to the bathroom... Wondering if all of these are menopause symptoms, is anyone else experiencing these symptoms?
Can I ask what the outcome of your situation was?
Had the exact thing. With heart palpitations. My thyroid was slightly elevated. Put me on medication and within 2 weeks felt 100 % better!
I will be 42 next month. Last month my period lasted 10 days. This month I have spotted fit 4 day s. I have heavy cramping like I need to start but nothing comes. I have had hot flashes, anxiety extremely bad for a week. I have had a bad taste in my mouth for months. It's this normal pre menopause? I took two pregnancy tests that were negative.
Well as I read so many post, it makes me not feel so alone or strange. I turned 45 in August and the last time I had a period was June 19th. I've always been on a 28 day cycle and now I've gone 3 months without a period. I feel pretty much normal. Except I have noticed I'm hot most of the time and all my life I've always been on the cold side, wearing sweaters or using blankets in the summer. Now I'm always hot, but I just assumed it was because it's been a pretty hot summer in Southern California. Now Im thinking its my change of life, I guess I just wasn't expecting this to happen this early. Any advice anybody? In case things start changing more drastically or faster.
That's exactly what i am going through right now, excact same problems. I lost my mother in JAnuary due to MRSA and the more i stress about getting my period, the. Worse it gets. Don't know do not have a mom to talk yo anymore!! Frustrated in Indiana.
Did you finally get your period?
Hi...i am 48 years old...i am without periods for last 9 months. little worried pls can some one explainme the reason.
Im 47 and have missed periods for 4 months,its came last month and i have been bleeding for 4 weeks now,at the start i passed afew big clots but just small ones now,told by a friend whos a nurse its menopause without any other symptom,bloods are normal
I can't even believe the anxiety a missed period can cause at the age of 45! Ugh! I had some dark spotting days ago and have felt all the symptoms of a period...but no period. I had blood tests ran several months ago as I was sure I was either pregnant or peri-menapasal. Neither was the case according to blood tests. Here I am again wondering the same and freaking out. I had a baby at 40 and am already the oldest parent at every event. I'm going to just have faith that God is in control and He'll equip me with the strength to handle whatever the outcome.
Nobody ever commented their findings! Has anyone actually been pregnant. Are we all early peri menopausal women. I'm 43 same boat. Hot flashes once in a blue since April. Then this weeks bam..every darn day few times a day. Period late. Preg tests neg and he my annual dr said all looks good. Ugh
Perimenopause is when you a full 12 months with no period , then you will fall into menopause. You may still have some symptoms of a period , cramping , mood swings , cravings , hot flashes , nesausa. ..depends on the person as everyones different
