What Causes Heavy Menstrual Bleeding In A 49 Year Old Person?

The irregular periods at this late age of forties, yes, it could be the time of menopause. It is not always you will be having other associated symptoms.
In case the bleeding is continuous for more than a week and small amount you may need to visit your gynecologist for further evaluation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
