Hormonal imbalance: Menstrual irregularities are not uncommon and anovulatory cycle is a common cause. If you miss more than two periods it would be time to see your doctor. If you do not wish to be pregnant, use contraception all the time. You may consider implanted contraceptive or an IUD.

Delay in periods ?'s: At 44 years of age, menstruation tends to be irregular. With long stretches between ovulation, estrogen production continues in the ovaries, which thickens the lining of the uterus, causing bleeding to be heavier, along with clots. The clots are difficult to pass, causing severe cramps, dizzyness. Adenomyosis will accentuate, since cells of endometrium invade uterine muscle.
