No periods for 5 months

[MrsPerfect12]

I’m 45 and I have not had a period for 5 months. Should be concerned about this or is it just part of the change? The year prior was longer between period and light periods.

Sounds pretty normal. Once you're into peri-, anything goes.

I often went for months without and then suddenly it would appear again. Most annoying was the year that after several months without, it appeared on holiday!!

Thank you. Of course it did! I’m away in summer, hopefully I don’t have the same fate. Better prepare just incase.
