Answers:
You have mentioned that you missed the last period and this time the dischage is marginal. This means that otherwise you have had reglar period in the past. So do not worry about a missed period or two over the course of a year. More variation than that may indicate to us the beginning of perimenopause or a disruption of the natural chain of hormonal events that controls menstruation. Your age -34- also indiate that it is not yet time for the curtain to come down, though this is woman-specific and may vary anyhere from 30 to 55 years. You have not stat ed if you had any other symptoms like night sweats, irregular periods, vaginal dryness, But remember this period of approching menopaulse(if it is that) called Perimenopause (and even the later, menopause itself) is not an illness, but a natural process in a woman’s body. Your symptoms, if you have them, are just indicators of underlying hormonal imbalances or metabolic damage from poor nutrition, stress and other factors.

It is possible for people to hit perimenopause as early as 34. However with your sore breasts are you sure you are no pregnant? a light period can be just spotting which can happen when women are pregnant.
