What age did you start the menopause?

[Newone123456]

I’m early 40s and for a year or so my whole body has been aching, especially in one of my arms. I have zero sex drive, erratic periods, terrible mood swings, so emotions and cry frequently, have had bouts of hot sweats and get brain fog and forgetful. I’ve had my bloods done and they are fine. I’m being referred to an early menopause clinic just to have a chat through with them. I can deal with the symptoms above but my bod aching I feel like an 80yr old not early 40s. I’m also so tired all the time. For anyone who did have early menopause does any of the above symptoms resonate with you? thank you x

Mine didn't. Simple as that. It was over 20 years ago now though, so to be honest I don't remember much.

I presume your bloods included thyroid checks? If not do this, I had every symptom you say especially the aches when I was early 30s. I still get bad patches but it's mostly stable on thyroid meds
