To invite you to list upsides of perimenopause (in your personal experience)

[CurdinHenry]

From about 13 I suffered thrush several times a year every year. It was bad. Since turning 40 I haven't had it once.

Pmdd has basically gone too. I feel a bit down before my period but in a normal and manageable way.

Don't want to jinx it but I can think much more clearly at the moment than I can remember for a long time. Much less in the way of inflammatory brain hormones feelings.

There’s already a thread exactly the same running.

At 49 I suddenly started having regular as clockwork periods, every 28 days on the button after decades of no periods, due to PCOS

At the same time my thrice weekly migraines disappeared, like magic

Unfortunately 5 years later, HRT has made the periods go all over the place and my migraines are back (prior to the HRT though)

The breasts! After a life of boob envy I suddenly have a great rack and no periods

Ach my boobs are getting smaller so I am envious of this

Maybe hrt will fix it

I hardly ever have to shave my legs these days

Oh that's a good point I probably only need a bikini wax once a quarter now Vs once a month before!

My migraine frequency has gone down hugely!

Horny all the time 🔥

Haha I get phases of this agree it's fun
