Hi ladies of a certain life stage Smile
I'm a 44yr old woman & lately (past 6months or so) I have been having spots/raised lumps appearing over my chest/neck. Is this a sign of menopause??

No. UNLESS it's adult acne which can spring up due to hormonal changes. Are your cycles still the same?

Maybe see a dermatologist.

I am on contraceptive that means I don't have periods (desogestrel) so not sure if my cycle is regular.

I have a dermatologist appointment next week anyway (for other issue), so I'll mention it then.

Thanks
