Is It Unusual To Miss Periods After Removal Of Copper IUD?

Hi, I had a copper IUD removal (after 10 years) on last September 19th which was the first day of my last periods. It has been 26 days and I generally have a shorter cycle of 20 to 24 days. I have not had sex in the interval. I ve just 43 years old. I am 52 kg and 165cm. I had 2 children. I am afraid I may be missing my periods as I don t really feel the normal symptoms I have had so far ( bloating , cramps , etc...) Is it unusual to miss your periods after copper IUD removal or could that be the early signs of menopause ? I have never missed my periods before...
