Hello!
Remember puberty?
Your reliable young body suddenly got a mind of its own.
Crazy things started happening, both physically and mentally.
Can you recall the helpless, out-of-control feelings that you had at that time?
Your parents probably gave you a heads-up in advance, so you knew (kind of) what to expect. Your friends, sooner or later, were going through the same experience. It was scary and awkward, but there was the promise of becoming an adult to look forward to, and you coped with the changes.
Peri-menopause is a different experience.
First, no one has likely given you that needed heads-up. Honestly, it would be difficult to do because everyone experiences peri-menopause at different ages and in different ways.
Your cycle may suddenly become irregular, your sleep terrible, and your moods frightening. Then everything can go back to normal. Did that really happen?
There are the common symptoms of peri-menopause… and then there are YOUR peri-menopause symptoms. Everyone experiences this life process in somewhat different ways.
Health Care System Failure
Most of us look to our doctors for answers to personal health questions. The problem is, you may not see your gynecologist but every three to five years for a Pap screening, during which time you may move well into peri-menopause. The other problem is that many peri-menopausal symptoms are nonspecific, and your doctor won't try to treat them anyway.
If you tell your doctor, "My energy is completely unpredictable. I wake up exhausted, but then feel OK later in the day. Sometimes. Other days I'm fine. I yelled at my kids for no reason, then broke down in tears." This is unlikely to elicit a prescription, and if it did, you might not want to take it.
Conventional medicine is usually ineffective at helping you with peri-menopause. Leaving you… where?
The Cause
In your late 30s, your ovaries will begin to rid themselves of their eggs by releasing more and more eggs each month. As you progress into your 40s, there are fewer follicles available for ovulation.
