Either or perimenopa: Check a pg test , if it is neg you are of the age that you can start skipping periods , u may go 2-3 months then get another one, menopause- avg age is 51 menas no periods for 1 year, but if u were my py would have u come in for an exam hormone blood tests and an ultrasound, because if u start skipping periods u want to make sure u are not building up too much endometrial tissue which couldbe abn.
