PCOS and peri menopause

Hi everyone, I’m looking for some real life experiences of women who have pcos and how it impacted peri and eventually menopause.
Did you ever recognise you were in peri-menopause and what kind of age did it hit for you?
I’ve bought books and googled in a bid to be prepared and knowledgeable etc but a lot of the peri symptoms are also symptoms of pcos so I’ve been having them on and off for years and years and when you google all I can really find is that menopause happens later in women with pcos but it doesn’t give any mention of how pcos affects women during peri or even if their experiences were different.

Thanks in advance for the advice.

In my mid to late 40’s my periods finally became regular on their own, completely unmediated. I had my last period at 54/55, after a year of nothing. But as to symptoms, I didn’t really notice anything. No hot flashes. No dryness.

Hmmm, can’t think what else to tell you, but I’m happy to answer any questions you have.
