Suddenly Shorter Cycles

I was diagnosed with endo in 2016. I lad a lap then 2 cycles later (after over a year of trying) I fell pregnant with my beautiful boy. I got my period back 7 months after have my little one. The past 6 months my periods have gotten increasingly more painful (near to how bad they were before the lap). They ranged from 29-25 days. Two months ago my mum told me she started the menopause at 36 (I’m now 34 and desperate for baby no 2). Since my mum told me my periods have been 24 and 22 days. I don’t know if it’s stress or the endo or peri menopause. I went to my GP, had bloods taken and an ultrasound. The bloods were in the normal range but the higher end of normal and the ultrasound came back fine.

Is having suddenly shorter a sign of endo return? Or does stress play a factor?

Thank you and sorry for the long post.
