Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
By going through the description, it appears that you might have started with peri-menopausal symptoms.
However, the first possibility to be taught of if there is delay or missed period is pregnancy. Peri-menopausal symptoms could be caused due to hormonal imbalance.
To know the cause, kindly get the following tests done:
1. Serum beta-HCG levels.
2. Serum FSH, LH and Prolactin levels.
3. Trans-vaginal ultrasound scan of pelvis.
Kindly consult Gynecologist with the reports of the above tests so that it could be properly diagnosed and treated accordingly.
Wish you all the best.
