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've been this was for about 4 years. Meno was surgical in 1999. I was using estrogen patches till about 4 years ago. That is when I got down and over reacted to everything.

Of course, I do work with the public and sometimes they just are not right either. Some people can be so stupid.

I thought that was a good price but guess what? Yesterday morning, I...

Anyway, I am putting on some progestone cream when I think about and things seem to be a bit better. Also trying to get back on my B vitamins. They help the nerves.
When I had the hysterectomy my physical body needed it. But my spirit didn't want it. Emotions make things more difficult. I wish there had been easier treatments 20 years ago!
