Could I Be Going Through Menopause Without Any Symptoms?

I haven’t had my period for two months. I’m not pregnant because I’ve had my tubes tied for 18 years, and I took a test just to make sure and it was negative. I’m only 41 and my mother didn’t start going through menopause til she was in her mid 50′s. Could missed periods be a symptom of something else?

There is nothing unusual about a woman going through the menopause without symptoms. I did. Never a one. But, since your mother didn’t go into menopause until her middle fifties, I would have suspected you to follow her pattern much more closely. Therefore my advice would definitely be to get yourself an appointment with a gynaecologist, let him/her get a full medical history from you, run a test or two, and make a professional determination about what’s really going on.
The last words you ever want to hear a doctor say to you are…..”If you had just come to me sooner, we could have dealt with this problem so much easier”
If there is something amiss, you’ll have jumped right on it; and if the doctor d etermines that you are simply going into early menopause, and nothing else appears to be wrong, well, then you get the peace of mind and can get on with the next phase of your life.
There are many reasons why a woman can miss her period. You could be going thru menopause. I have known women as young as 40 being finished. I would have my thyroid checked.
Also it could be a hormonal thing. A doctor can do a blood test to see if you are in menopause. You likely arent pregnant.
It is great not having a period anymore.
AIDS! OMG!! AHH!
HAVE YOU HAD YOUR THYROID CHECKED??
my guess is aids as well
Missed periods can be caused by alot of things that I am sure you know of. Stress can play a large factor, if you recently started doing more dialy activity, quite a bit of things. There are also people who start showing small signs of menopause earlier than the “normal” age bracket. Could range anywhere from spotting, period flow changes, mood swings, hot or cold flashes. I am not a doctor though. I think for a much better ease of mind you might consider seeing a gynocologist anyway. It will help you a bit. Even when the seasons change it effects mine.
Get it checked out. Menopause is a stage in life when a woman stops having her monthly period.It is a normal part of aging, marking the end of a woman’s reproductive years.More information and remedies at http://useinfo4.blogspot.com/
