Hello everyone I am 46, and I've begun to notice some changes, for starters I'm not as regular as I was, it can start early and catch me by surprise or it can be late. sometimes heavy, sometimes light. sometimes after a light one I pay for it next time around. PMS also seems to bother me worse, and lately I've noticed intensifed emotions. Is this how it starts?
Thank you Dee. I've been through a week of cramps and feeling like my period was going to start and yet no period, then it finally came and only lasted for 3 days (not that I am unhappy about that!) but it is normally six days . I have also been feeling a little depressed lately. I'm guessing this is all part of the process?

Yep, standard symptoms of peri-menopause. Just keep reading and try to keep your sense of humor. It helps to kind of know what is coming instead of being blindsided.
