usually is. I'll save you the description of my symptoms.

really wouldn't mind the description, mehitable. And thank you for answering!

No , sparx104. Knowledge >>>>>>>> WTF?.

ive just looked it up on wikipedia and no, i'd rather live in ignorance after that....

on the other hand, yes, it does appear that the symptoms are connected.

aww, that doesn't sound nice. you should try what i'm on, it stops menstruation altogether but in a healthy way

uncertain that artificially stopping menstruation can be healthy; just sometimes less damaging than other things. Link, ginarama?

i was trying to remember its name it;s this, from what i know it's as safe as the pill

TY, ginarama. Mostly, though, samiam was only concerned about normal life-stage vs. disease process.

actually now i look at it again, you might respond differently to it

wouldn't tinker with anything if it's, indeed, a symptom of perimenopause.

yeah, that might not be best. if it's not, though, something like that might be worth looking into?

that if it's not perimenopause, samiam would start worrying about thyroid function and endometrial abnormalities.

or some other term she can't remember that basically translates to "weird shit in your bloodstream".

as little as i'm qualified to speak about this but to me it does sound like it's probably the first one.

Yayness!

the wiki article said that things can go a bit "haywire" normally. good luck with that...

accustomed to "haywire", just in a different context!
