Hi I just turned 53 and It's been one year since I had my last period.I have been experiencing migraine headaches on and off since.Yesterday, I had a pins and needles feeling in my face and for a feww months now I have no desire to have sex.Is this the start of menopause?
Yes, sounds like it. Go see your gynecologist to get something for the lack of sex if this is your concern.
Hi Virginia, sounds like it - im your age and have had a hysterectomy and also suffer terrible migraines and get the tingly pins and needles in my face aswell, sometimes it goes into my nose and cheekbones and can be sickenly horrible. Feel for you.
Sounds like what they call peri menapausle
😢
Menapuse from start 2 finish van take up 2 15 years .
If you have no other symptoms ie, hot flashes/sweats, fatigue, I would go and get the pins and needles feeling checked out with a doctor. And mention the migraines, he may be able to give you something to help.
Hi Virginia
I have just turned 50 my periods stopped 3
Years ago and I was told I was peri. The only thing I get is hot flashes and now seem to be getting
More frequent at night time disturbing my sleep and cramp / niggle
Like pains that change from overy to overy as if
Periods is about to begin not sore but I know it is there. And I to have no desire for sex but if it happens it is good. Hehe. So I'm not sure what any of this is.
Hi Virginia, when I got pins & needles feeling my doctor found I had an injury in my neck. Such that it comes from some type of arthritis. If you ever suffered a whiplash or some sort of injury on your neck or spine, the pins & needles is common for arthritis unless you have diabetes then I would get checked out immediately.
