To ask how old you were when your periods stopped/started menopause?

[CheapSausagesAndSpam]

Because I'm 45 and still regular and getting a bit tired of it now. :( I'm not wishing away time or anything but it frigging makes me feel like crap.

When is the average? What was it like for you?

I started at about 11/12 and had my last period when I was 42. I’ve always been v irregular and light.

Started at 12. Menopause at 52. Another fan of black kohosh here!

All over at 45, thank god.

I started at 14 and am still having very regular periods at 52.
I’m fed up with it all, athough I haven’t got many perimenopausal symptoms, I do get awful PMT.

47 and still get one every mpnth but sometimes very heavy and sometimes v light. No night sweats. That sounds awful. Does that happen when periods stop?

I was nearly 14 when i got 1st period.

Told by GP I was peri-menopausal at 42, a few years ago.
Now having the most horrendous hot flushes during the day and at night. I am gasping for breath and at night drenched. Male GP suggested citalopram, but I didn't want an AD.
I'm going to go and see another GP soon.
My periods are lighter and less regular, but they were always quite light and short anyway.

OK I posted earlier in this thread that I was 48 and regular as clockwork every 24 days. Well....my period tracker ap tells me I am 13 days late which has never happened ever. I am definitely not pregnant so I am guessing this is the beginning of it. Excitingly brought to you by mumsnet 😂😅😅

I'm 45 and used to be regular as clockwork. Bang on 28 days every month.
These past 12 months I've fluctuated between 22 and 30 days, my skin is absolutely shit and have awful mood swings. And periods are heavy and painful but always have been. Can't wait for them to finish
