What Causes Irregular Periods Along With Drainage Of Brown Vaginal Clots?

Hello I am 36, and had my first period age 8 and since then have been very regular with a 24 day cycle. But recently they have jumped about a bit so I went for a smear test in December which came back fine. Then 15 days after my last period I had brown clots for about 5 days and now my period is late. Could I be nearing the menopause earlier than usual due to starting my periods early and having a short cycle? Thank you.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, chances of menopause is very likely after the age of 30 years and this is not the case that if you had early menses in just age of 8 years so you would be having early menopause, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
I find this answer helpful
