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.

This is my third day with this headache and for two weeks I have had these itchy bumps on my chin and around the bottom of my mouth. They seem like maybe they are getting a little better now. They have been red and very itchy and look terrible. Anyone else have these symptoms?

I've gotten the damn things, too, but luckily, they're not on my face. They are, however, on my arms and legs. I know they're not flea bites (I know what those look like) and neither my husband nor my 9 yr-old have them, so it MUST be the menopause. I just keep applying Gold Bond and try my best not to scratch, and also put high-moisturizing lotion on at least twice a day.
After a few weeks, they subsided, although I still get a few here and there.
Okay, I think we've got enough to deal with. No more other symptoms, ok, PLEASE?!!
