I swear I?m going into menopause

mm29

AF is still not here.  Like I said yesterday I am almost never late, early, yes,but not late.  Being obsessive I POAS again, stark white again.  This has me thinking.  Am I in menopause? 

I started googling, and mayo clinic listed the symptoms and I swear I am in menopause. Please tell me i am being a crazy IF!  The symtoms I meet are in bold

Irregular periods Decreased fertility Vaginal dryness Hot flashes Sleep disturbances Mood swings Increased abdominal fat Thinning hair Loss of breast fullness

I think i'm going to email my RE if AF doesn't arrive soon.  I hate this!

Nooooooo. I've done this to myself too so I get it. I would run around the house telling DH "I think I have menopause"

I just think all the meds we take throws off our cycles so much. After my last cycle, my cycle went from 28 days to 21. All of those are symptoms of the meds. Not to worry!

Having gone through menopause myself 7 years ago (I'm 36 now), it's entirely possible.  Do you know your FSH level?  That will indicate if you're approaching pre-mature menopause or not (20 or higher is menopause.)

Talk to your RE - s/he will run some tests to let you know.

Good Luck!

This happened to me the last 2 month's.  Poor Bear received a call from me crying Out.Of.Control, the ugly girl cry.  I hope I am wrong!

I have not had my FSH drawn for about a year, it think it was 15 then.

First - step away from Google

Second - Can you call your RE and tell them your concerns?  Maybe they can do some additional testing to put your mind at ease.  I feel like it is something they maybe would have mentioned if it was approaching.

Third - I'm sending you big huge virtual ((hugs)).  I'm so sorry that you are having these concerns.  I hate that IF even makes us think about these things at this age.  Hang in there, I hope you can get some answers soon.
