Hi, I have gone through your problem. Your symptoms are suggestive of anovulatory changes which are common when woman is nearing her menopause. There will be no changes in ultrasound or blood hormonal tests in this case. There are changes in the lining of uterus.
You can wait for maximum three months after the last periods. If you don't get periods after that and your urine pregnancy test is still negative, then you can have periods with progesterone pills (medroxyprogesterone acetate).
Hope this answers your question.
Wishing you good health.
