hi, this is my first time posting here. I just turned 41, but for the last 2 months or so ive been waking up extremly hot not sweating really, just feels like im burning up with a fever. For the last couple of years my period has been really light and short sometimes only 3 days. I have also gained alot of excess weight around my middle section and I workout 3 times a week. I have never missed a period and I am usually bang on every 28 to 29 days but not this month I am now 1 week late at what age do you start missing periods or do they just become irregular. Im really stressing right now. I really hope im not pregant.
