Is it the Perimenopause

[reeree1805]

Hi
Iv had 3 blood tests that say no but i already have a Mirena coil in and my periods are very light now.
But i hardly sleep any more, i get very hot n sweat, i am moody little bint, i am well dry u know down there , headaches im a worrier anyway so havent noticed a difference in that.

Doc says no im to young . Im 40 anyone else the same xx

I'm the same. Also 40. I've had one blood test that says no. But hot flushes are such a big change for me. I'm usually a very cold person so this is a big big sign. I'm struggling with sleep too. But my periods are very heavy still. I get anaemic due to the blood loss, so I really don't know where I'm at with it all.

The coil does help my period but thats all. Im thinking of goin back even just to get somethin to help me sleep xx

I'm 41, been having night sweats, aches and pains, SERIOUS brain fog (I'm finding this to be the most distressing symptom), drying up everything (hair, skin, vag) in varying degrees for maybe a year now (can't remember how long exactly - see 'brain fog', above).
About a month ago I started taking chaste tree berry/vitex.
Night sweats have more or less stopped and am generally feeling a bit better. Wouldn't say brain fog has lifted. I have been looking into trying maca for concentration and libido (which, if I'm honest, has alway been low so not holding out much hope for that!)

Oops - should have also mentioned, blood test didn't show peri/menopause but dr felt my symptoms clinically fit the picture.
Sleep has improved a bit since starting the chaste tree berry but I hesitate to say it's cured

I am 40 too, blood tests said no last year. The hot flushes have been getting worse and I am so exhausted due to lack of sleep. Went through the list of 34 symptoms and I have 31. Have made an appointment to see a different GP as this is all making me miserable!
