Irregular periods

Irregular periods

The worst periods of your life? Welcome to perimenopause, the hormonal rollercoaster that takes you straight to menopause.

When oestrogen outpaces progesterone, the endometrium thickens and
causes heavier periods. But when oestrogen levels drop, bleeding
can become lighter, even if cycles are shorter (every 2 or 3 weeks, for example).

Is it normal?

Yes. During the years when your oestrogen and progesterone levels fluctuate, so does your cycle: it can disappear for months, return without warning, and come with light spotting between periods.

99% of women experience irregular periods before menopause.

What can you do?

  • Keep a record of your periods to identify patterns.
  • Avoid stress and take care of your diet, as they affect hormonal balance.
  • Consult a healthcare professional if bleeding is excessive or very
    frequent.
