I think i am having an early menopause, symptoms are excessive sweating to the point of running down my face sorry tmi, have even had to get my hair cut short due to it, had started taking duloxetine for anxiety last December and was told that sweating can be an initial side effect, but thinking back the sweating started in the September previous, other symptoms that have just recently started are racing heart quite often. Extreme exhaustion, brain fog, lack of concentration do you think I need to see a dr, I have an underactive thyroid aswell x

It depends how old you are and what you think is 'early'.

I'm 38 and having an early menopause or premature menopause. Oh god the dreaded heart palpitations!! I have them every night! Also a fairly long list of other menopause symptoms.

Yes Matjas you need to see your dr. There are lots of posts on this forum about early meno and you can also read about this in www.menopausematters.co.uk and the Daisy Network.
You need HRT until your early 50s to protect your bones.
