Is this stage post-menopause?

I'll have booked my doctors appointment but wanted to check in this community as well.

Over a year my monthly periods were too heavy but regular. I felt some days hot flushes too. I had migraines as well.

jUST from last 6-8 weeks I do not experience any of the above mentioned symptoms. My last month periods were pain free. Last few weeks I had high sex drive, I have gained weight and I feel full of energy. Reading post menopausal symptoms these are quite similar. Does this mean im at post-menopause stage??

The definition of being in menopause is being without cycles for a year. If you had your period less than a year ago, then you are not in menopause (post-menopausal).

It's certainly not been a year as I do still get periods. For first time in year I'm few days off this month for my period.

You’re still perimenopausal
