Hi Ladies, do hope you're all doing ok & keeping well. Well it's a year now since my last period, many symptoms are slowly settling down but I'm not completely free yet...still have my 'funny moments' sometimes with hot feelings in my face which can make me a bit woozy, have thought maybe my BP spikes a bit, doesn't really feel like a flush as I don't get sweaty, just feel 'off' n not right. I get really bad hip pain at times(Dr confirmed arthritis, in knees, they're like sandpaper rubbing on sandpaper but no pain...really freaky lol & fingers, possibly lower spine) this freezing cold weather doesn't help...come on summer! & my hair is OMG! just crappy, every day is a bad hair day WT...?! LoL I will be 56 in a few months, how long after the one year mark does everything get back to normal? such a slow process ho-hum sigh!..... 😔 thinking back, I must have been peri menopausal through my forties considering all my states of mind & emotional upheavals etc even though it had never been mentioned to me & i'd never heard of it back then. I'm still taking my menopause herbal tablets, I'm sure they are helping, starting to feel sort of feel different, calmer...if that makes sense.
Take Care, hugs to all 😄
I don't know how long it all takes; everyone's different and it seems to go in phases or stages as our bodies adjust. It's about change, transition, adaptation, finding balance and ways that help our bods feel better. I wish there were an app for that. L.
