I'm 41 yrs old & my periods for the past 2 months are very light spotting. This month is the same but with a large blood clot. Is this perimenopause?

I have very light periods; basically spotting for 2 days. Is this normal at 26 or should I see doctor? No birth control currently (implanon removed 1yr ago). Only other symptom during the "period" is that I'm a lot more emotional than usual.
