MenopauseEnglish • 1 year ago

My hormones are so low my gyn said I shouldn’t have periods. Yet I do. And the past year it’s become more frequent. I just had one two weeks ago and starting again today. The past few years the first day is pure hell and I lie in bed in misery. Hopefully it’s just a few years to go but damn a hysterectomy would give me 16-20 days of my life back a year. Thanks I needed to vent.

I don’t know if it’s too high but I am not pulling a handful of hair out of the shower drain daily anymore! That’s a win! 🤣

‘Menopause isn’t really that bad’…said no woman ever.

For those who are approaching or experiencing ‘the change’ (think reverse puberty), a time where hormone levels decline either through the aging process or by medical/surgical means.

Menopause and Perimenopause (the transitional time before Menopause) are unique to every person, and while there’s no one-size fits all, we support each other on this roller coaster ride of wacked out hormones, absurd mood swings and random sweaty hot flashes.

Be kind. Be respectful. We are all in this together!
