I am experiencing hot flashes, night sweats, severe weight gain (more than 10 pnds. in 2 weeks), no period. I look like I am 9 months pregnant.
Hi Brandi! First big question - how old are you? 2nd when did all this start? 3. is there a chance that you ARE pregnant!?
I am 32. The abdominal bloating started about 6 months ago. The night sweats and hot flashes about 3 weeks ago. I am 2 weeks late. There is no chance that I am pregnant.
OK! I would really like you to see your doctor and have your hormones checked I have a feeling you are in peri-menopause! IF your mother/aunts/grandmothers/sister had early menopause then this would be more likely for you! Also smokers are more likely to have early menopause, as well as if you have been around radiation/chemotherapy! So get checked - there are TONNES of options! PLUS IF your hormones are fine, I would also suspect ovarian cysts - these can cause pregnancy/hormonal imbalance symptoms! Either way you need a check up and a transvaginal ultrasound! Please let me know how you make out OK? Good luck and health!
