Menopause Or Pregnant ?
Posted: 10-05-06 18:45pm

Sad hi, this is my first time posting here. I just turned 41, but for the last 2 months or so ive been waking up extremly hot not sweating really, just feels like im burning up with a fever. For the last couple of years my period has been really light and short sometimes only 3 days. I have also gained alot of excess weight around my middle section and I workout 3 times a week. I have never missed a period and I am usually bang on every 28 to 29 days but not this month I am now 1 week late Crying
or Very sad at what age do you start missing periods or do they just become irregular. Im really stressing right now. I really hope im not pregant.

If you take a pregnancy test, you'll know if you are pregnant or not. Are you having unprotected sex?

It could also be perimenopause, the odd ball time leading up to menopause that can last for a decade. This is the time when our bodies go through major changes. Weight gain. Wonky periods. Night sweats.

Just like when we start our periods as teenagers, there is no 'set' age on when we'll start going through the 'change'.

This sounds a lot like what you are going through.

However, if you are having unprotected sex, there is a possibility you could be pregnant.
