I need reassurance. I am 9 days late with my period. Well, I bled a little today but I have had period cramps off and on for most of 11 days. I have been having some mucous discharge for 2 days now, some of it discoloured. Lower back ache. Weak heavy legs. Feel emotional and Anxious. I’m 47 yrs old and haven’t missed a period in years so this is strange. It feels like my period “can’t start properly”. What’s going on? This hormonal backache and cramps is getting me down.
Is it a menopause symptom or what’s going on??😭😢😢😳
And I struggle with health anxiety so it’s all made worse. Thanks.
It sure sounds like it. This is how mine started 7 years ago. I'm 47 now. It was just the first of many symptoms to come....blisters in my mouth, rashes, heart palpitations. I get so sick around my monthly that I dream of gross things and wake up nauseated. Hang in there. Your not alone. Its a wild not so great ride. Try not to get depressed. That's the worst part.
Yes, hon...it's peri. Shenanigans and malarkey. Read through similar threads on this forum for support and advice, you're not alone. ..and you're not ill.
Hugs!!
Yes! I just had my cycle...15 days late! I keep track on an app just so I know what's going on. I'm 45 and started with these what I know now to be perimenopausal symptoms. I had hellish left breast pain (never just had the left breast hurt) so I started looking around. Lucky for me I found this forum to help calm my nerves, you are not alone! Keep reading the discussions on here it will really be a support for you! Good Luck! 😊
Hi!! I’m 52 and I have been having the samethong happen to me on and off for the past couple years. I also get lower back ache and my hips hurt as well as health anxiety!! Try not to worry! Your mot alone!! I believe this is all peri related!! Xo
Thanks so much. I felt reassured hearing from you about your experiences. I feel depressed and not ready for this but ready or not... here we go!
Thank goodness for this forum !! Feels good to know we aren’t alone! Have a nice day!!
