@moahmed3678 10 месяцев назад

Can early perimenopause start at 25 ? My periods were heavy since I started having them but became a bit heavier at 25 and then started to get closer together at late twenties/early thirties.I heard that these are symptoms of menopause. I am 39 now, had some hot flushes at 34, they subsided after a couple of months, came back again at 38, subsided after a couple of months and just came back. I knew that hot flushes are symptoms of late perimenopause.

@SKatz27 3 года назад

I had my first hot flash at 36 and every time I brought it up to my doctor, they brushed me off and said I was too young. Then I started missing periods and they said "it could be PCOS". Now I'm 40, I went of BC to get pregnant, and no period, extreme hot flashes, and hormone levels in the postmenopausal range. I feel so angry and so cheated for missing out on my chance to have a baby because so many doctors think you have to be in your mid 40s for it to be perimenopause or straight up menopause.

@saramarie9050 Год назад

Just came acorss your video. Very helpful! For about a year or so I have been wondering if I am in perimenopause. (I just turned 41). Changes in my period (flow), sleep/mood changes especially with PMS. I never dealt with cramps or mood swings and suddenly I do (have not been on birth control for over a decade) plus the ruminating on thoughts when trying to sleep which is not something I ever experienced but now I am frequently waking up at 4/5/6am with thoughts. Night sweats have started as well. I feel as though my "normal" day to day body temperature has increased as well. I used to run really cold and now some of my favourite cozy clothes are just too warm! Anyway, a long winded way of saying thankyou for the video. I will track things a bit more to bring to my doctor as HE rarely believes my symptoms.

@qnkendra1523 9 месяцев назад

I've had my hormones checked a few times and I thought that would tell me if I was approaching this stage of life- good to know that most everything I've been dealing with for years falls under the perimenopause umbrella. Acne has been driving me crazy for a while now I even joked that it sucks that I have it worse now then I did in puberty. Other then that I'd have appreciated just getting the heads up that my general anxiety disorder and clinical depression could get worse I thought I'd been failing at working my therapy instead of dealing with a new level and ever since a throw away comment this summer by one of my physical care team it has helped inform my mental therapist about struggles I'm having controlling my diagnoses.

@AncientOne222 Год назад

I am one month shy of turning 50 as I look back I believe my first sign of perimenopause was vitamin D deficiency 4 years ago at age 46. Unbeknownst to me that was the beginning of this roller coaster ride of joint pain, heart palpitations, agitation, breast leakage, hot flashes, anxiety, crying spells, insomnia but I feel energized in the morning. I want off this ride of menopause because it’s not fun at all.

@GenXer333 Год назад

The palps are awful! I get PACs/PVCs, as well as a long grocery list of symptoms. I'm nearly 52 and still have my monthly, although I did skip a month a couple of times. I got excited thinking, is this FINALLY the end?! Nope. Aunt Flo can feck off already because I'm done with this shite. I've heard it doesn't get better until a FULL YEAR after meno! I want to find a surgeon who will rip everything out STAT. The symptoms are getting worse by the day. Wouldn't wish this upon my worst enemy. Well, maybe I wish it a little bit on the male doctors who blow me off whenever I ask for hormones or anything to help (and they don't).

@crepesuzette5540 3 года назад

From my study of 1, I agree with your symptom list. My research subject also had insomnia and hair loss. Once a day Estradiol Gel and Progesterone was helpful but insomnia continued until switching to E & P topical dosing BID. It is my hypothesis that women are under served by traditional HRT dosing and frequency and route. This is also the hypothesis of many other clinicians. Just like many diabetics need an AM and PM dose of Metformin perhaps E & P deficient women need AM and PM dosing based on the half life of their HRT option.

Great content…. I am 49 and thought for sure I was in peri menopause because my periods were a bit heavier and starting to become a bit inconsistent but after an ultrasound it was determined I had a uterine polyp that needed to be removed. Now my periods are normal again. I would also encourage people to get an ultrasound done and not just assumed they are in perimenopause because some thing else could be going on. I heard you mention the Fibroids but not polyps. Should an ultrasound be done, at least once a year, as we approach peri menopause, to make sure nothing else is going on? Thank you so much and can’t wait to watch the rest of your videos.

@heatherhirschMD 2 года назад

Its hard to say, but should be based on symptoms and personal history

Even polyps are a sign of estrogen dominance during peri menopause. I am going through the same . But removing them is not going to fix anything. They will reappear until you fix your harmones.

@HisHersTheirs Год назад

Could severe mood swings be perimenopause for me at 38? My cycles shortened to about 25 days for about a year now, but for the last month, I have had mood swings every day that are sometimes so severe that the only thing I feel like I can do is lock myself up I'm my room. I'm married with 5 children, so it's somewhat not an option, but it's better than treating everyone badly!

Please help!!! My doctor told me i was in perimenopause last year then said i wasnt after lab results now this year shes saying im in perimenopause again, but really basing it on bad memory of what we talked about last year and lab results again. I only had hot flashes for a couple of weeks once last year and once this year.. along with that i have had multiple positive pregnancy test. I had been tracking my lh and bbt on the premom app, i was ovulating perfectly and bbt would spike after ovulation all the time... my mom didn't get menopause until she was 62, shes 63 now, i cant imagine getting menopause around the same time as my mom.. i just turned 44. I haven't had a period for 2 months but had faint positive pregnancy test during this time. Doctor says not pregnant but never did tell me why i keep getting positive test after ovulation a number of times. Does perimenopause cause false positive pregnancy test? Also i have cyst in my ovary, just discovered, can that cause false perimenopause symptoms? Or false positive on pregnancy test? Also can vitex and progesterone cream mess up cycle? After taking vitex my cycle went crazy, I stopped taking it but 3 months later, cycle is still not normal. Wondering if its causing false perimenopause symptoms? But despite some teat and doctor just carelessly using the word perimenopause, i just dont feel like i am actually in perimenopause yet.

You mention that if you've had an ablation that you can't use your period to determine if you are in Peri-menopaus ... I was wondering why you believe this? Is this because you assume that if you've had an ablation that you won't have a period? Or is there another reason? I've had an ablation but continued to have my period. My period was easier to deal with (lighter) and I didn't feel like I should go to the hospital every month due to blood loss but I did continue to have a 'normal' period every month. Well, that was until recently when my period started getting heavier and sporadic. For Info: I'm 52 yrs old

Waiting to see a gynaecologist. My moods are all over the place. I’m definitely not as easy going as I once was lol. I get hot flashes and palpitations. My pelvic floor isn’t as good as it once was. Need the toilet more. My eyes are also really dry. My last eye exam didn’t show any issues. I have started on her. Patches and utrogestan. Think I need an increase though.

I am 49 and last cycle I had a very painful experience with fibroids. I felt like I was in hard labor for 5 days. My doctor said the only way to fully prevent reoccurrence is partial hysterectomy. Has anyone had ant experience with this? By the way I have just had another light cycle this month.

@clairee4939 Месяц назад

Sorry to hear that. Not me but my mother went through the same thing and had a hysterectomy. She was very glad she did. So was I. It was terrible to see her in such pain.

I know its different for everyone but what age range would you see as normal in terms of menopause? I had no syptoms, had full hysterectomy at 48 no hrt given, but now out of the blue have symptoms in my late 60s. Pretty much textbook symptoms, apart from no periods after hysterectomy

@Its-Kat_ Год назад

I'm 40, 41 in November and I lost my period. Not sure if it's because I had weightloss surgery and don't eat a lot and forget my vitamins sometimes. I don't know if I'm in menopause or not.

@loveinautumn3978 6 месяцев назад

@raymarriss2440 5 месяцев назад

Please help!!! I am turning 44 next month February- and for the last 1 year i have irregular cycles. I would go almost 3 months without a period. I have palpitations and anxiety at times. I did go see my obgyn, he was did labs and a vaginal sonogram. I had a grape size cyst on my left ovary and had a redo sono 6 weeks later which showed it went away. My labs were all normal including thyroid and A1C. This month i got my period and then again 4 days later. With health anxiety, these symptoms really scare me. Is discharge a symptom as well?

@mystery79 Год назад

So I have a Mirena iud since April 2017 and I thought my period changes were due to it, my cycles got shorter with me starting to bleed in day 22 or 23 , it’s very light but it’s like a minor trickle for 6 days. Prior to this it was pretty much a very regular 28 day / 5 days of period cycle. I’ve also been dealing with gastritis since 2022 and insomnia at times. I can’t tell if this is from my GI issues or hormonal changes.

@lorieller8882 10 месяцев назад

I have also had my Mirena since 2017 and I am having short cycles with 7 days of spotting, weird GI issues, and insomnia. I was planning on keeping my Mirena since it was approved for up to 8 years, but now I'm wondering if it's time to get it removed.

@MayanPrincess3 2 месяца назад

Can I be in perimenopause at 38? I had my second baby 21 months ago and breast fed her for 16 months. I don’t feel like myself at all and I have a ton of symptoms. Mainly my very on-time period has been coming earlier and earlier to the point that I don’t know when it’s coming. This has been happening for about 3 months. Hot flashes, insomnia, appetite changes, heavier bleeding, way more cramping and pain and mainly a huge mood disturbance a week before and during my period. My doctor said I may just have to deal with it for now. Bc I don’t want birth control. I haven’t had birth control since I was 25 years old

@GenXer333 Год назад

I'm a mess. Every symptom, including about 100 more. It's literally debilitating. My useless doctors just brush it off and say I just worry too much. Not just the male doctors (A-holes) who have no freaking clue what it's like, but also some women doctors. I don't bother setting up appointments anymore because they won't do testing or help in any way. If men had to go through this, you'd better believe they would've had something to help with this 100 years ago. Hello Viagra! Men couldn't get their weiner's to stand proud, and they treated them like it was a life threatening emergency and quickly came out with something to fix those poor little limp guys. But, insufferable perimenopause? Meh. Just deal with it....for up to 15 years ladies. Fekkers.

@katherinestojanovski6734 Год назад

100% correct. The best they do is tell you to take some Ibuprofen. Gee, I never thought of that 🤪. I have said the exact same thing as you for years, too about the viagra.

This definitely sounds like perimenopause. Perimenopausal anxiety & depression isn’t discussed as much as they should be. It can make you feel horrible! I hope you can get on hormone replacement therapy soon to alleviate it.

Same, had to change my diet and it has been trial and error with foods. one thing I used to love and cannot tolerate now is garlic. I also find that I get allot of inflammation especially around the time of when my period is due. Lots of pain in my legs tummy back. Mood changes fatigue and tearful, generally worse after exercise. I over do it without knowing then crash physically and emotionally.
