Got my period a week after the last one. This time its quite heavy. I’m turning 47 next month. This is the start of menopause isn’t it? Any advice from people who are going through it would be appreciated.

Same. Then nothing for a month.

Google Dr marie Claire haver, "the zone of chaos".

Initially the cycles shorten and be one erratic, over time they lengthen, eventually the ovaries shrivel up and there are no more eggs. You probably have 4 years to go, which would be typical age of 51.

Stress can also bring it on, it's a stress time of year.

Yes, it happened to me as well. Periods went all over the place. I got the mirena coil which put a stop to them.
