I'm currently on the Cilest Contraceptive Pill and I've been bleeding mid-cycle for a while. I'm 48 years old and I've also been sweating a lot. Are these menopausal symptoms?
The average age to start the approach to the menopause is 45-55 so you are in the age range.
Some women do find that menopause symptoms 'break through' the Pill, so the best thing to do is see your doctor.
Although it is very difficult to test if you are going through the menopause as the Pill will mask your own natural hormone levels, your doctor may be able to give you more information about what is best for you to do next..
