My periods have become very irregular and the gap is huge now, doc said im close to menopause. But we still want a baby. Is it even possible to conceive at this stage? honestly thoda confused and worried.
While you are transitioning, hormonal levels fluctuate a lot. Natural conception is extremely rare after menopause, but if you have any doubts, a simple hormone test at the clinic can clear everything up. Take care and don't stress.
Actually yaar, once you hit full menopause (meaning no periods for 12 months), conceiving naturally is almost impossible. But if you are in the transition phase, ovulation can still happen. Best is to consult a fertility doctor to check your ovarian reserve.
This is such an interesting question. I've read that once you reach proper menopause, natural pregnancy isn't possible because ovulation stops, but perimenopause is a different story. It must be so confusing to figure out where you stand!
Haan na, many people get confused between perimenopause and menopause. If your periods are still coming once in a while, pregnancy can still happen. Safe side ke liye doctor se mil lo ek baar aur tests karwa lo.
My doctor told me that during true menopause, ovaries stop releasing eggs, so natural conception isn't possible. However, IVF with donor eggs is still an option for many women. It's always best to get an AMH blood test done to check your status.
