After feeling strange for a while,I have googled my symptoms and the answers have pointed to the perimenopause.I am 48 and am still menstruating,it's usually 21 days instead of 28.
I am tired,got insomnia I am too hot at night,putting on weight,feel emotional,itchy dry skin,get too hot all of a sudden,impatient,thinning hair ,forgetful and sometimes panicky short of breath.I have had night sweats in the past but not so bad recently just a bit.I have also felt down,and had no motivation.I feel like I am having mental health difficulties.
Does this sound like the perimenopause?Do I need to go to the doctor's?What should I do next?
Thanks for reading this.

hi hilbre, sorry you're feeling like this, i really feel for you as i'm going through similar. try looking here -
www.34-menopause-symptoms.com
www.menopausematters.co.uk

i would try your doc, i've had no success with mine as they're bloody hopeless but thats not to say that yours will be the same, make an appointment. i meditate to help with the anxiety & depression, going for a walk or exercise when you can find the energy, i'm struggling with the exercise as i feel so incredibly exhausted, no motivation or just ill. take care Flowers
