Hello, I am 48 with 2children 14 and 10. Can anyone tell me if this is normal - for the past couple of years my periods have been all over the place, usually going 3 or 4 months in between, then every month for a few months and then months apart again - and a lot heavier . October 2012 I had a period after 6 month absence - full on flooding for 24 hours, and then normal. Since then I`ve not had a proper `period ` as such, every few months I get a slight bloody discharge - like old blood what I would get towards then end of a period. Sometimes only visiable after I have been to the loo and wiped, no need for anything other than a panty liner and sometimes not even that, have noticed my hair seems to be coming out a lot when I brush it, no hot flushes but am tired and feel down and sometimes can't be bothered getting out of bed - though I do!
