background

I'm 45 years old and in the last year or so I have been experiencing irregularity with my periods. Last October I had a heavy flow and the doctor advised me to have a D&C since my endometrum lining was unusually thick, about 17.5 cm. After the D&C I was regular for 3 months and then last month I skipped my period. This month my period has returned but I'm bleeding excessively. What is the matter with me?

You won’t get the menopause the minute you turn 50! The average starting age is actually between 45 and 55 and it can often depend on a number of factors including hereditary, weight and health, however every single woman will have an individual menopause.
