I used to have a very irregular cycle with and average length of 36 days. Very rarely it was as short as 29 and once it went to 42. After having my baby and my periods returned they were still a bit erratic but generally short cycle (32 days). Then more recently I had one cycle of 26 days and then for many months very regularly every 28 day. That is until this cycle. I’m on day 39 and no sign of it! I had what seemed to be ovulation symptoms for at least three weeks (constant ewcm, bloating, heaviness in belly, achiness) and felt as though my period was about to start for several day, but nothing happened. The ewcm stopped, and I’ve been wearing “just in case” pads for the past 2 weeks and nothing has happened. I have no unusual stress, no illness, no reasons to skip a period. Is this “normal”? Might the next period come when it would have been due (+56 days)? I’m 46. Is it a perimenopausal symptom to completely miss a period after completely regular 28day cycles for many months?
