Many women in their 60's still have periods, but there is no "Guiness world record" for latest onset of menopause and no definitive or exhaustive study to document the Oldest Onset of menopause.

although there may be one for the oldest woman to give birth, which would by deductive reasoning mean she wasn't in menopause when she conceived the child. That would still not answer the question though!

Menopause is a process not an event and having "a period" is not the end or only requirement. Unlike the onset of a woman's period, there is not a day or hour when it "stops". Intermittent periods, end of ovulation, rapidly dropping in Estrogen and Progesterone production. Or the onset of some, many or all of the symptoms which may include:

  • Intermittent Menstrual periods that eventually stop

  • Fast Heart rate or racing,

  • Hot flashes, and Night sweat

  • Skin flushing

  • Sleep problems (insomnia)

  • Low Libido, Decreased interest, decreased sexual pleasure

  • Forgetfulness, foggy thinking

  • Headaches

  • Mood swings including irritability, depression, and anxiety

  • Loss of muscle & Muscle tone, Urine leakage

  • Vaginal dryness and painful sexual intercourse

  • Vaginal infections, Urinary Tract infections

  • Joint aches and pains, specialy in major joints like hips, knees shoulders.

Usually woman experience perimenopause and menopause (I call it PM&M for short!) beginning in their forties or fifties. Some women experience it earlier than 40.
