Menopause periods stop suddenly
Common Questions and Answers about Menopause periods stop suddenly
period
You are most likely going through peri-menopause. I had the same symptoms as you at that age. Two periods a month.. bled 5 days it would stop and I'd get another one for 5 or 6 days a few days later.
I started skipping periods at 46 and by the time I reached 47 to 48 I had one more period and then no more. Take care of yourself, get another opinion from another gyn just in case you are not in peri-menopause.
I would like to know if someone know about some type of medicine or supplements that can stop a period and force menopause. This seems to be my only option, since I have never been able to get help for gynocological problems. Maybe if I can get rid of the period, I can get rid of the misery. I'm pretty sure that my lack of health insurance has a lot to do with it, especially because of my age. Someone told me that they heard that it may be something out there to help me.
m 45 years old and have had healthy menstrual cycles like clockwork all my life. Suddenly it stopped 12 or so weeks ago. I have had frequent unprotected sex. I have no symptoms.
Menoupause or pregnancy?
s and have perimenopausal for several years. For me periods happen, stop....start again....stop....start and so on. Before that I was regular too. I do have a friend that said she had a few hot flashes for a few months and then just stopped and that was the end. No more periods or hot flashes.
I had horrible symptoms and was very sick several years ago when perimenopause hit me hard....so hard they thought I must have something else and tested for all sorts of things, all negative.
I would also like to add that most women over the age of 45 who receive chemotherapy such as yours, will become amenorrheic (meaning that menstrual periods will stop). For many, this cessation of menstrual periods will represent permanent menopause but a minority will have return of menstruation either regular or irregular in the future.I have read that some women restarted menstruation 2 years or more after completing Chemotherapy.
Blood is away now, she had only 1 day discharge when usually her periods had 6 days, what happened? Is this a normal issue during menopause?
Hello - 2 years ago at age 46 I was diagnosed with Grave's disease. I opted to take drugs to treat this rather than a more radical approach. It took awhile but it got under control and I now take only 2.5 mg of tapezole per day. I am still testing positive for antibodies so the endocrinologist wants me to continue. Last September I had my "female" hormone levels checked as things with my period were a little whonky - no period for three months and then three in a month.
Long periods do go hand and hand with menopause. Unfortunately menopause isn't something that appears one day it is a long process. For approx. 7 years I was on the road to menopause. It began with irregular periods, several periods in a month, periods that lasted anywhere from 1-8 weeks. It was not a fun time in life at all. There were several times when I went as long as 8 months without a period...only to kick back in regular as clockwork. Talk about disappointing.
I am 39 and will be turning 40 in June, I've been having irregular periods, but two months ago I did not have my periods. I'm also experiencing hot flushes which I find very disturbing. For the past two months, I've been having period pains but no periods.
I'm a healthy 45 year old with 2 grown children. My periods have been like clockwork all my life. I've had frequent, unprotected sex. My period has suddenly stopped about 12 weeks ago. I have no symptoms other than I felt my left ovary "twisting" for a couple of days(don't know how else to word it). I have not taken a test as I don't see how it could be possible at my age to be pregnant. Thoughts anyone?
my periods are long and painful, she said removing the uterus will stop periods and end my pain. i am only in pain when i have a period. usually the pain would stop when the period stopped but my last 2 periods were done and the pain just kept going for a few weeks, then retured again as soon as my period started. i did not want to be on birth control for fear of the increased cancer risks, so I am torn.
Looking on internet I am shocked it is major symptoms of menopause. I have had my periods thinner since last 12 months but they are regular. I never had any issue with wetness before. Really worried about my symptoms.
Any help please? I have not seen that white discharge since last two months. Tried meditation and everything within these two,but nothing improved. I am yet plan a family.
You might find that your next period makes a surprise appearance any time. It's early for menopause but not early for perimenopause, and one of the things the body can do then is not ovulate every single month.
Ovulation triggers the next period, not the other way around, so it would stand to reason that no period means you haven't ovulated this past three months. This can also happen with stress, having nothing to do with menopause.
I'm having similar symptoms, but not 8 months long.... yet. I'm going to check with my doctor now, but I've been reading online. Our prolonged periods can be due to menopause, fibroids, or endometrial (uterine wall) cancer. Therefore, it's a good idea to see someone who can rule out cancer.
Good luck!
my journey began in 2010 when I started having very heavy periods this went on for over a year when I went to my family dr. he asked me if I was anemic I told him I didn't think so but was very tired. he checked my blood and found that I was. had to have other testing done to roll out other issues. after that I was sent to my ob-gyn which did a biopy which was ok then put me on depo shots for two years to get me to menopause.
I am 43 years old and my periods have always been super regular and last about 4 days. This month I thought I had skipped a period but it came about a week and a half late. I am now on day 9 of bleeding - I am not soaking through pads but the flow has not tapered and I have been passing clots the whole time. The soonest my gynecologist can see me is 5 days from now.
Everything I google leads me to
Cancer and I am really nervous.
If you have Graves Disease you came to the right place... Are you taking any anti-thyroid medication to keep that under control?
It's always a good idea to get copies of all your test results when you have blood work. Your doctor is obligated, by law, to provide a copy upon request.
The spotting could be a result of the Graves Disease or of the ablation. I had to have a D&C shortly after I began menopause to help stop erratic bleeding, but it didn't do any good.
It's not unusual at all to keep having periods. But it's a start with you on going into menopause. You'll keep having periods off and on till you start menopause. You slowly will have longer times between getting a period.
I started going into peri-menopause last year. I always had monthly periods but they were messed up. Now this year, is the first time that I get spotting and then I don't have spotting.
I Started missing my periods two years ago at 47 years. My head will start feeling funny like a little spin like electric shock. A few seconds after I will feel depressed, frighten, angry, tired etc all at once then a few seconds after I will sweat profusely. The period came back after four months and I was normal then the next year the symptoms repeat now for the third time every timeout would be more intense several times a day in sleep waking up with palpitations and even awake.
I have symptoms that follow menopausal patterns, and would be fine with menopause except not sure. My periods were fairly regular - every 24-32 days - and then suddenly stopped. Have to say, with the stress and an inability to stomach food, I probably lost 20-25 pounds, with probably 5 of those being in hair loss. I MISS MY HAIR!! I go for months upon months without my menstrual cycle.
