I'm 44 and my periods since having my kids have got worse and worse. I think I am going into peri-menopause too. Periods are very heavy, awful cramps, heart palpitations and anxiety. I also can't stop crying for a couple days before they start.
I am finding them overwhelming and slightly unmanageable- I am going to see the doctor about what to do.
But Aibu to take a day off work with my symptoms - I genuinely don't feel fit to go to work, partly because of the heaviness of my periods, partly because of the awful pains but also because of the effect it has on my mental health- I am a wreck and don't feel fit for work. I'll be fine once the hormone storm has passed.
Aibu?
