Hi friends,
I'm new here and this is my first post. You all have such great insights.
I am 47 and have been in peri for a few years. Hot flashes at night, mood swings, weight gain, all the fun stuff.
For the past few years my cycles have shortened, to an average of maybe 25 days.
But some months, it's only 15/16 days. I've been keeping track, and this year I've had about 4 of those.
I thought cycles would spread out more if not ovulating, less periods not MORE.
I went to my new gyno, and she said she wanted to do a uterine biopsy to rule out something worrisome.
Which of course made me WORRY. I had one in 2017 for a similar bout of weird periods and it was fine but REALLY hurt.
Side note, I did have breast cancer two years ago, but it was stage zero (DCIS) and have been told there would be no correlation if something else came up. But even going to the doctor has me on edge.
Did anyone experience short cycles? I'm not spotting and the flow is normal.
Thank you!
