Hi everyone! I hope you don't mind if I ask a question that's probably already been asked 20 times on this thread.... somehow i'm just not in the mood to read through 18 pages of posts! (Guess what TOM it is!?!)

Here's my deal: I'm 44 and the only real perimenopausal symptoms I've had is irregular periods. But they've got me pretty confused.

Had a period around Dec. 20. Then had another one on Jan 2!! That's 2 weeks. The Jan. one I had no cramps or bloating, lasted 4-5 days, bright flow. (GAWD, I hope no guys are reading this!)... so I'm thinking this one is mid-cycle bleeding, right? So here it is, another 2 weeks have gone by. I've gained 3-4#, feel a little crampy, a little PMS depression (y'know: people make me sick!), etc.... but then I never started!! So do you think I had all the symptoms of a period except for the flow?? Is that possible?
