I'm 45. For the last couple of years my periods have been fairly normal - a few months where the cycle has been short, 24 dayish, and a couple of times where it's been a week late. Nothing dreadful.
Then in June I had a strange week of what must have been hot flushes. In the evenings, every half hour or so, I'd have a sudden real hottening from my chest, up my neck and across my scalp. It only lasted a minute, then stopped. Odd sensation, but not debilitating or hugely unpleasant. And then it stopped.
And now in July my period is nearly 7 weeks late. I feel completely normal, not periody, nothing. Poor paranoid DH made me POAS, despite him having the snip 2 years ago, and me saying I definitely didn't feel at all pregnant. And of course it was negative.
But it worries me. I don't want to bother my GP if its normal. So do I just wait and see what happens? Some sites say I should seek medical advice as I'm under 50 so need to be checked out.
Any advice much appreciated.
