Hello dear hope you in good health, 3 days periods are not less but still if your periods are regular also you can start tab yaz once a day for 28 days, and from day 29 start new packet, this for 1 year so your hormonal deficiency will be corrected

Get am ultrasound and a serum FSH done. That will gv a better idea. Menopause is usually after 45 years so this is unlikely.
