Hi everyone! I'm Jenny and 46 yrs old. I have 3 boys ages 21 yrs, 15 yrs and 20 months. I I'm not sure how long I've had symptoms. But, from the things I've been reading, I think it's been a while. I do have a question, do fibroids have anything to do with perimenopause? As I get older, they have gotten worse. Just curious. Thanks!

I “popped a bleed” today. Since October I have had 3.5 “periods”—this HAS to be another indicator I’m definitely in Peri. My cycle has been like clockwork pretty much since I started at 13yo… Anyone have similar experience?

I’m scheduled to talk with my GP to ask her for hormone testing to see where my levels are at this point that it seems peri symptoms have kicked in at a fuller force than ever before. What are some things I should bring up/ask? I have started a list of symptoms to make her aware of and keep track of for my own info.

Just went to see a primary care physician…trying to get to the bottom of this excruciating nonstop ache/pain in my legs & feet. I already knew going in that I wasn’t gonna do what she suggested (Gabapentin or Lyrica) but when I told her I started HRT P caps & T injections she told me she didn’t think T was the answer to my legs “testosterone is only given for 1 primary reason…libido”. I’m dumbfounded & at a loss for words. And THIS is why I trust no one

Hey everyone! 👋 We have a lot of new faces in the group and we’d love to get to know you! Let’s kick things off with a fun question: If you could give your perimenopause/menopause self one piece of advice before it all started, what would it be? Feel free to share your thoughts, experiences, or even just a little emoji to say hi! Can’t wait to hear from you all 😄💛
