Women with a low body weight, are frequently under high stress, or in perimenopause tend to have irregular periods. These women have very low estrogen production, so the body has trouble communicating to the ovaries that eggs need to be released, and ovulation does not take place.
The symptoms you have now- bloating, rapid weight gain, spotting like period lasting 10-14 days, all points towards perimenopause. However, these symptoms can also occur due to thyroid deficiency and hence, I will advise you to get your thyroid profile evaluated too.
