I am 42. My period last for about 10 days. I will go from one extreme to the other. I will have no spotting, nothing all day; then a sudden gush so quickly that my protection doesn't have time to work and my clothes, skin are flooded. I have week so of being extremel tired and not caring about anyone or anything; I would just like to be left alone and stay in bed. From that it goes to a week of irrational emotional outbursts. :-S I just feel grumpy, mean & miserable. Then I wake up one morning and finally feel like me. Life is good, I love my husband and family - I'm happy! :-D This is a viscious cycle that I seem to be on. Between the flow and the mood swings I have only about 5-6 good days a month.

I noticed back in Dec. that I was loosing alot of hair when I shower. Now I am loosing my eyebrows. They use to end in a diagonally straight line with the end of my eyes. Now they are only 2/3 the lenth of my eye. I don't know how qucikly this has happened but I just noticed it. What are my possible causes ?
