To think I've had my last period?

[HaveIhadmylastperiod]

I'm 51 and according to the app on my phone my last period was 64 days ago.

Is that it now?

What age were you when you had your last period?

My periods stopped at 50, then came back! I was 59 when they stopped completely

Mine stopped for 11 months, restarted every other month for 6 months and THEN finished. I was 46 at my last one.

I’m 54. I went six months without one and then the bastards came back. Starting to think this will never end.

I'm 51 and I had a period in Nov.... and then again in Feb. It's just random at this point!

When you’ve not had a period for 12 months you can consider you’ve stopped. Twice I had an 11 month gap, thought it was over but it wasn’t.

I’m 47 and it’s been 98 for me - oh how exciting - I hope I’m done with the fuckers.

I'm 54 and have had 3 a year for the past 2 years. An hour of red smudging once this year.

Last one last summer...

I was 55 and had had almost a year period free! no more arrived after that one though

Yeah I had an 11.5 month gap and then had another one. That one was the last one though. I was 51

I had an 8 month gap before the last hurrah.
It seems to be extremely common.

I doubt you have finished. Mine were 7 months apart for about three years at the end. I very much doubt you will get another 10 months without one.

Hahahahahahahahahahaha.

No, you don't trust your uterus one bit until you've passed a full year - and then still carry some emergency supplies for a while yet.

Source: 6 months, 3 months, 11 months and one week, 2 months, 7 months, 16 days, 4 months, 10 days (and then lasting 3.5 weeks).

My last was December 2024. I'm 50 + 11months old.

Defuckinglighted!

You can’t be sure until you’ve had at least a year without one.

My last one was at 51 (as was my mother’s), but I had a mastectomy and had just started chemotherapy, one quite long period started a few days after my first chemo and then never any more.

My cycle has been 65 days, 51 days, 122 day, 38 days, 25 days, 107 days over the past year. So although I hope you are done, you probably aren't.

I will say that after years of very heavy periods mine are now very light and I only get 3 or 4 days, rather than 4 days of heavy, a couple of light days, nothing, then surprise, a couple more days!

I'm 50 soon, so I'm hoping this is the slow end to 40 years of the damn thing!

I’m 52. I went 6 months without a period last year, but I’ve had 2 since December.

Really, really hoping that’s it now. One of the most annoying things is not being able to predict them any more.

My last one was when I was 51, where I had 3 in the one year, the last was really quite heavy, which I was surprised by.

I was 51 when I had my last period and I remember it lasted for 3 weeks, just went on and on like a final clear out. Before that I had an 8 month gap.

I was just short of my 57th birthday when I had my last one. None since and I'll be 60 this summer so I can finally be considered postmenopausal. Woohoo! Liberation.

51 when I had the last but I did go 11 months at 50 and then had another one so 54 days is nothing. In the last few years I was having one, skipping two, having one etc. Now 55.

Yeah I once got to 13 months then had a rogue one. Had sore boobs and ovulation mucus before as well. Nothing since .

I'm 49 and still getting a period every month. Maybe 1-3 days early or 1-4 days late. I thought by now they would be getting a bit unpredictable but not a chance

Such an interesting thread! I'm 51, went 10 months without one and thought great, must be done. Then it came back... have had two in 2 months.

Seems common if these experiences are typical.

I’m 51 and still regular. Getting annoying now but I suppose they could stop anytime. 🤞

53 and still regular.

i am fine with it as menopause seems to do a number on your joints, bones and skin so I’ll keep the hormones as long as i can. I’ve just had an x ray in preparation for surgery and was complimented on my excellent bone density 🤣
