I'm 44. Cycles pretty regular at 24/25...sometimes 22.
But last cycle was 22 and AF hasn't shown up for this cycle ....so I'm now 2 days late! Currently on 28 day cycle now!

Taken a pregnancy test this morning but was negative. Squinting for a line and nothing!
It was a cheapie though and not a digital or Clearblue.

I've felt fine the past few weeks without the usual PMT symptoms.

I'm worried that this is the start of the end.

We have been TTC number 2 but feel my time has run out.

Will my cycles be longer now..?

So confused!

Leave it a few days and test again. I know that doesn't help now but it's hard to call it at the moment. How will you feel if you are pregnant?

@threelionsonashirt thank you so much for replying.
We would be totally fine if I was pregnant as we have on and off been TTC number 2.
My DS is now 4.

I think because we have been trying with no success I don't believe I am pregnant, if that makes sense!
It's like oh here's AF - put another month.
But now this!
I'm just wishing AF does show.

A negative on a pregnancy test has got to confirm it's a no, surely? Cheapie or not?

Update ..AF has showed up. So this month is a 28 day cycle..,
Compared to usual 24/25 or occasionally 22!
Am I entering menopause??
