I went to my Aunt's funeral last week and on Saturday I came on for the first time in 5 months. I am bleeding quite heavily and in a lot of pain. Does anyone know if this can happen or could it be something else?

Hi - Sorry to hear about your Aunt.  I'm not sure about grief causing you to have a period, but my menopausal symptoms started just after I lost my Dad in 2012, so I think stress/grief can be linked to things.

Through the peri meno stage it's not uncommon to have a long gap from periods and for them to start up again.  I personally think our emotional state has an influence as well.  DG x

Sorry to hear about your Aunt.  Did you meet people not often seen?

Yep - my periods were influenced by my emotional state.

Thank you for your comments. Yes I did see people I hadn't seen in ages which was nice.

Funerals can often be quite jolly  ………..

How heavy is the period?

My period is quite heavy and some clots. Been in contact with the doctor and if its no better in a few days I need to contact him again. Did have a better nights sleep last night which seems to have helped a bit.
