Hi,
I'm nearly 54, saw my last period about three years ago. I've never had any HRT because A. I'm too scared, and B. My symptoms have been manageable so far; poor memory, regular hot flashes day and night and various aches and pains.
About a month ago I started to notice a sticky clear discharge and what I can only describe as a mild ovulation discomfort like the old days, also my nipples became tender. A few weeks later my breasts became heavy and tender/painful - again - just like the old days and a week ago my hot flashes stopped. Completely. Last Wednesday I slept like a log for the first time since the whole peri/menopause debacle began. I have every physical symptom of getting ready for a period. Is this likely after having no periods for perhaps three years? I'm freaking out a bit because I cannot find anything on Dr Google (I know, bad idea) relating to this. Currently I'm blaming everything from my recent second Astrazeneca jab to various types of cancer.
