I’m 45 and think that it is still too early for me to have menopausal symptoms. Recently I have started experiencing sleeping disturbances and extreme fatigue. I developed memory problems and have sensations that are very close to hot flashes. My periods last shorter than before but are not as regular as before. Am I menopausal or not?
Well you may be perimenopausal. Perimenopause may last even for 10 years in some women. You should check your total cholesterol and LDl to prevent cardiovascular disorders that follow menopausal changes in female body. Phyto estrogens that are found in soy beans are effective in reducing menopausal hot flashes. I can not say if you’re menopausal or not, your symptoms may be due to stress, tiredness or another underlying cause.
