I am 52 and have not had a period in 42 days.

Missed periods are often one of the first signs of the approach to the menopause and you are in the average age range 45-55 so it is possible.

Your doctor may be able to test your hormone levels and that will give you a better idea of what is happening.

In the meantime looking after yourself well is very important and you may find a good female multivitamin helpful.
