Perimenopausal: In your mid to late forties your ovaries decline in function and will not ovulate necessarily every month. However, when this happens the lining of the uterus continues to thicken resulting in heavy and/or prolonged bleeding. It may be time to see a GYN as this will likely happen again.

Irregular periods: Irregular periods are one of the most common problems obgyns treat. If this is one time problem it usually resolves on its own. If this is a recurring problem you should be evaluated. Infections & hormonal changes can cause spotting. If there is a concern for pregnancy then do a home pregnancy test . There are many options available to help regulate the menstrual cycle. Schedule a visit.
