No Period Since November...

But my tubes were "burned" in 2000. I am 44. No other real symptoms--a little breast tenderness, some mild cramping off and on, a little spotting once last month--didn't even last a day. So...most likely not pregnant, but what then???

What can I do next?

Menopausal symptoms are definitely possible at 44. Periods can become irregular. We aren't considered through menopause until we've not had a period for 12 months, but typically they will space farther out for a time first.

If you are concerned, you can see your doctor.

Perimenopause or pregnancy. Either way, wouldn't be a bad idea to see your doctor to discuss.

It's either menopause or pregnancy! You should take a pregnancy test -there are lots of stories of failed tubals on here, and I personally know of several myself. Most likely you've started early menopause -you should go to your doctor. They can do a blood test to see if you're into menopause.

I urge you to see your doctor. This is probably the beginning of menopause or perimenopause but there can be other causes. You want to be sure that everything is OK.

I would go in like other said either pre-menopause or pregnancy. With all three of my kiddos I spotted lightly for less then a day that is now I knew I was pregnant. The failure rate for Tubals increase the longer you have them. So 11 yrs is a long while I would go in. but on the other hand you could just be the less worrysome issue :)

I had just had the same issue!! I had my last cycle the week of Thanksgiving and gave in and took a pregnancy test two days ago. My husband had a vasectomy almost 2 years ago, but never went tested. Mind you, I went in and watched the procedure and if ANYTHING gets through what that doctor did, well then a new baby is meant to be! But it was negative and the next morning I started my cycle.
