Menopause Support Group
Menopause is the physiological cessation of menstrual cycles associated with advancing age. It normally occurs in women between the ages of 45 and 55, when the body begins to slow and stop the production of eggs, estrogen and progesterone production decreases, and menstruation diminishes, eventually stopping altogether.
Hi all,
I am 52 and apparantly in menopause hell. I have been having a rough week - extreme fatigue and low moods. I am starting on Magnesium tomorrow. Has anyone had luck with it? Also, does anyone else suffer with itchy skin? Thank you for the support!

Yes, I itch sometimes. Mood swings were worse than the hot flashes that were hell too. Sounds like you are normal!!! I wish I could say it will pass but mine hasn't yet. 17 years later!

Wow! How are you dealing with it all? I have had most of the symptoms since I was about 42. I haven't had a period for almost 9 months, just very very light spotting a few weeks ago. This is a great site since my best friend is in her 60s and had a very easy menopause and other woman I know don't seem to want to talk a lot about theirs.

Name something you’ve gotten better at as you’ve gotten older.
