[quote=Anonymous]Short answer, yes, likely peri. For many people, cycles get shorter before becoming erratic, then finally spacing out and ending. Everyone is different, however. Some people have regular cycles right up until then end when they one day just stop. Others have cycles that only get longer. There is no rhyme or reason. In any case, by 53, you are definitely in perimenopause even if you have no symptoms. While most people have SOME symptoms, there are a few who don't. That pain behind the ribs? While as another poster mentioned, could be caused by heart attack, may also be another perimenopause symptom. Hormonal fluctuations can cause joint pain including pain in the costochondral joints (around the ribs). So congrats! You now are having multiple symptoms of perimenopause.[/quote]
