My periods have been coming every 2 weeks for the last 4 months. Is this a sign of the menopause?

This is a very common scenario on the approach to the menopause.

However, frequent periods are not good for you and may cause anaemia which in turn can cause low mood, fatigue, or sleep problems so if this does continue it is best to get it checked out by your doctor.

In the meantime you may find a gentle iron tonic beneficial for you
