A 40-year-old female without a uterus cannot have a true menstrual period because menstruation involves the shedding of the uterine lining. However, some women may experience symptoms that feel similar to periods, such as pelvic pain or bleeding from other sources.
-
No uterus means no menstrual bleeding: The uterus is essential for menstruation, so without it, there is no menstrual flow.
-
Possible causes of bleeding: If bleeding occurs, it might be from the vagina due to other reasons like vaginal atrophy, infections, or hormone-related spotting.
-
Other symptoms: Some women may still experience cyclical pelvic discomfort or hormonal symptoms related to the ovaries.
If there is any unexpected bleeding or symptoms, it is important to consult a gynecologist for proper evaluation and care.

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?
It's not uncommon for your menstrual cycle to be slightly delayed after an illness like dengue, as it can affect your hormones and overall health. If the delay is only a few days and there are no other concerning symptoms, it should be okay, but if the delay continues or you experience unusual symptoms, it might be worth consulting your doctor for reassurance.
