Hi. I last had a period in September (proper one) and then a light period in February this year. This last week I have had period like pains and the feeling I am due a period but no actual period as such. I did have some bright red blood this morning but not much. My doctor has said that I am going through menopause and has advised me to take Menopace, I can not take HRT. Is this normal? Its like a phantom period. Thanks for reading.
