Many women gain weight around menopause starting as early as from 40 years of age which can be controlled by healthy eating habits and physical activity. There is no rule which applies commonly for all women in terms of this duration of weight gain but on an average it is 5 years.

I'm a bit worried because my period is late by 4 days this month, even though they've been regular before. Last month, my period started on September 2nd, but I had dengue then and maybe because of the fever or weakness, my flow was really low. Do you think there's something wrong or should I be concerned? Could you give me some advice on what to do next?
