My mom is 40, going to be 41 this october.
She's had her period normally forever.
It came normally last month, but
afterwards her breasts were hurting, like
they did before her period. Well her
period came two weeks early (very unsual).
She's going to the doctor on monday to
get blood work (results do friday). But I
want to know some possibilites, and hoping
this site can help
1. Even though she says she cannot be
pregnant...Could she be?
2. Even though she thinks she is too
young for menapaus (sp?) could it be that?
3. Could it be something really serious?
Should I be worried? Cause I kinda am.
But kinda anxious cause i'm really hoping
she might be pregnant. I don't know what
to think. Please help me

Early Menopause Posted: 08-25-06 17:58pm
Just an fyi...My body threw itself into
menopause at the age of 22!!!!! It
sucked! I had hot flashes worse than my
own mother! You mom may be going through
early menopause or it may be hormone
related/endometriosis, etc? She should
go to the doctors if it is overly
concerning to her.

yeah it doesnt seem like something major
to worry about..Some women have regulated
periods for years and years and then they
can become unregulated..It could be stress
or like the person that posted above said
..It might also be hormones...But the best
thing is for her to go to the doctor
..Which you said she was doing..
Good luck
and dont worry it doesnt seem like
anything major!

It's probably really nothing to worry
about. Stress or anything can throw a
period off or make it early. It can
always be a possibility that she could be
pregnant- my mom had me when she was 40,
and my brother when she was 42. But, if
she says thats not a possibility, then it
probably isn't. Hope everything turns
out alright!
