menopose at 37??

Hello everyone. I am 37 almost 38, my periods were very regular and on time. but this year in April it became very unusual for me very, very light, no symptoms. just very odd for me. so I went to the doctor and did an exam and nothing. Then in September yet another "no period" no symptoms. I ignored it thinking it was stress. ( really I have been more stressed and my periods were never off) then October it was regular and November was off and this month I had a 2 week cycle. I have had on and off hot flashes and I am very emotional, angry. Could this be the beginning of pre menopause?? my doctor says no way for my age and there isn't any family history of menopause at 37. But I have been reading alot on it and im beginning to think that I might be the first in the family :/ any thoughts?

As everyone will direct you first to your doctor.  If you don't get a blood test, and a OBGyn test, find a doctor that will care about YOU!

But yes menopause apparently can start at that ripe age of 35 and go to forever it will seem.  But I would check with the doc first.

See a different gynecologist if this one won't run a simple blood test to determine if you're in pre-menopause or other tests to determine what's going on if it's not that.
