I am 45 and had eight pregnancies..7 kids and one m/c.  with my last I had abnormal pap and was treated /scraping  for pre cancerous cells on cervix but cleared up after I gave birth. Al my kids are healthy. I am at a point where I do not have insurance until November when it takes effect, I have  brown vaginal spotting with turn the normal red color bur never enough to fill a pad  for 2 weeks no  period and slight burning sensation on outer pee hole, been married for 14 years and he has been fixed. Last pregnancy was 2007.

I did  start mod to heavy period type for two and half days which filled a pad but looked normal with a strawberry jam type red. Now I am peeing clear but when I wipe I see tinge of blood on  toilet paper..period residueI guess.  Sept 14,2015  I feel all hot,sweaty,tired,like puking,weak..flu bug?…UTI….do I have cancer..  peri menopausal…,what??  Sept. 15 2015, I feel fine .. first wipe was tinge a bit when wipe and when I went to bathroom again no tinge when wiping..al clear urine is clear and noblood tinged wipe..all clear.  The way pee hole is kinds stingy on the outside leaning towards UTI or yeast and possibly peri menopause. Sept. 16..been drinking alot of tea bag tea and pee is clear and no  sting outer pee hole.so idk..Set 1,2015.hubby and I had sex and entrance was a bit sore.no raw? vaginal dryness.I gotto face it,I'm old sad Sept. 18,2015 tummy feels weird.

    iv had 7kids to had my twins last in 08. my husband got fixed to.

    i started with symptoms of peri this year but had it on and off i think for a few.

    im geti g the on and off spotting with brown to red to orange red when i wipe

    my periods started geti g shorter like i used to be every 28 days and on for 7 

    then it went down to 5 days and lighter then id come on bleed for a few days then stop then start again a few days after for a few more days, then id stop but then when id think id stoped id have sex and start again then stop.

    im dry now its horrible i put lubricant ky on when i go to the toilet to help but its horrible.

    my doctor told me that there was no tests or anything to confirm peri menopause and I know what you mean  I am 45 look early 30's..and sex is dry and my hubby has no sex drive so he isn't choosy when he gets it..( at least he didn't say anything)

    except he mention I was peri menopausal last week.. rolleyes

      mind u i cant be making the ice cold dryness up hes been complaining about. hel be saying its all my fault next. cant beleive somthi g hasnt been done in the medical feild by now on menapouse and help for women as its real bad and goes on for years. hrt from a flipin femail horses pee just isnt good enough. why not get it from flipin men i read they have to much of it compared to us when tney get old. and why not get it from you ger women.

      must be better than horse pee homones from an animal.why hasnt the medical scientists found a good pill for us poor women. if men went through all this theyd have the pill ow yer they did make the pill flipin viagra.
