Is shorter menstruation a sign of perimenopause? Has anyone conceived in perimenopause?

Question

If you conceived please gives details of what you did.

Answer

Yes shorter cycles than usual for you is a sign of perimenopause: then it can shift to longer cycles then no cycles. Menopause is clinically defined as no periods for one full year (no other issues) and a day 2-3 FSH of 40+.

Answer

You should just test your hormones to see for sure. All else is guessing. Everyone can have the odd cycle out per year.

Answer

How short is shorter? Anything under 3 days and I will be suspicious of some hormonal disbalance.

Answer

It’s not, as long as it’s your “normal.”
