Hello,
The absence of menstrual cycle is sign of pregnancy but also perimenopause, if you are around 50. You can do a pregnancy home test at least 5 days of delayed period to check if you are pregnant. Also you can do a Beta HCG.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
