Some time back I was having very heavy periods, but that has improved. Then for a while, I would spot for a week before, and a few days after the actual week long period. I did tell my doc about it all, but she didn't push me to do anything about it, and I preferred to wait it out.

My mom and sisters all had either hysterectomies or ablations so I don't know when they would have stopped. I read of some women actually going to their late fifties!

I'm just venting, sorry. I know it could be worse.

Any end of periods stories?
