Thank you for your advice specialmom
Hi there. Well, every woman is different so there are no absolutes. Overall, 46 would be early. A typical pattern for women is to actually continue to have a regular period but have spotting about a week beforehand and then the period comes very heavy for two days and starts to dissipate on day three. So, very heavy and then gone quickly. That is a very common pattern. If you are having long spaces between periods, I'd say to perhaps get a thyroid test at age 46. good luck
