At what age did your periods get longer in between?

I was 43 or 44.

Haven't got to that point yet and I'm 49. Still have pretty regular periods although they vary by a few days and type of flow.

I went off the pill because my periods were down to a 1/day/lightday type flow. Thought that I'd just quit all together once I didn't have the mini doses of hormones...

Now I'm 51 and have been a regular as clockwork for 2 years!! AND the regular 4-5 day flow. Plus all the peri symptoms.

I'm anxious to hear the range of ages here too!

I was 48. Had a couple after the long stretches that were 14 days apart, but that only happened once or twice. And a few perfectly spaced ones. But mostly the stretches got longer and longer.
