Erratic periods: You may be having hormonal swings due to perimenopause changes. You may be having other symptoms or hot flashes, fatigue, depression, decreased libido, emotional swings, mood swings etc. See your doctor who specializes in female hormal problems that only uses bio identical hormone therapy.
