I am 43 i have been experiencing hot flushes, weight gain, headaches, fatigue, moodiness etc so went for a blood test.
They confirmed today that i have menopause as markers low and also deficient in folic acid and Vitamin D.
I am being prescribed folic acid and vitamin D . They should make me feel better

Hope the vitamins help. Have they also talked to you about HRT? Maybe have a watch of the Davina documentary that was on C4 a while back. Loads of useful info and quite inspiring to see how other women have dealt with it. Flowers

How are your periods - have they actually stopped or are you still in the peri phase where they’re all over the shop?!
