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.
I was so excited when I skipped two months and was hoping that my dreaded periods would disappear! But now I'm regular again, every 3 weeks my dreaded period arrives. The only difference is that now I am cramping about two weeks before my period starts, so I have about a week of feeling ok and then the shiat starts again.
Grrrrrr.
When is this going to stop?
Also, my periods were lasting about 3 days for the last 7 years or so, now all of a sudden they last a full week with more bleeding than I've ever had.
This is getting annoying!!

Of course, check with your doctor to rule out any other potential issues.
I'm almost 50 so I am really hoping that I am near the end of this.
So for those of us that are in peri-meno...we have a looooong road ahead of us! Thank God for estroven! I have NEVER believed in ANY herbal stuff. Just thought it was all a bunch of BS, but this herbal multi vitamin stuff is a godsend for me and my husband!
According to my hormone levels, Dr said i am MENopausal.
