I am 51 years old and I've not had a period fro 2 years. Now, suddenly, I am having a period.

This can happen and it is often be caused by things such as a 'last fling' by your hormones, stress, illness, strenuous exercise, dieting, and a change of diet - especially if you improved it.

However, it is best to get it checked out by your doctor as well.
