Hello!
Around perimenopause variation in cycle length is common. So don't worry!
If the cycle length becomes shorter than 21 days, you face heavy bleeding, pass clots, bleeding or spotting at other times of the cycle or have severe pain, then you can get a consultation for further evaluation.
Health Tips
Get a Pap smear done regularly (once in 3 years at your age) to stay safe from cervical cancer.
