Peri menopause?

hi.  Im a 47 year old gay woman  with no children and currently 8 days late on by period.  My body is giving me no indication I'm about to start either.  Is it. Possible I'm about to go into menopause?  I'm never this late.  I can't ask my mother when menopause hit her as we are estranged.  I don't feel stressed either at least not in the last couple of days.  Thanks in advance to those who have advice or comments.

Perimenopause often appears as irregular periods. Starts late, finishes early, heavier, lighter, spots here and there out of sync with your typical cycle. It's kinda sputtering, on its way to its deathbed and fighting with your body all the way to the bitter end, lol

Depends on how long your cycles usually are have you been stressed? Cause stress can delay your menstrual symptoms of menopause is feeling hot flashes irritated inside and some can get cramping as well
