At the age of 38 my periods started messing about, I know I was young but I knew it was the start (there are 6 women in my family of which four have had hysterectomies) the two that haven't are myself and my Nan who is 93. I went to the Drs and all they said is that I was too young. Returned to the Drs years later and still no help I might add they were both male. Today I have an appointment with a female Dr and I am hoping to be able to get some help from her, I am almost 46, so I think suffering for 8 years is far too long. My periods stopped for 17 months and then returned for a few months, I have now been period free for 142 days. The night sweats are getting worse, I have no motivation what so ever and I'm fat something I have never been. I would like to try HRT patches, so fingers crossed. My libido is dead and buried. I HAVE HAD ENOUGH!
