      You are just about within the normal age range for this nightmare, if normal is a word that can be used for it, and the fact that your mom had it early, is also an indicator that you are starting this lovely process! XXX

      Hi Yasmin, if you aren’t pregnant, and your periods are all over the place, then yes, all those symptoms can be part of peri. Google 66 symptoms of peri, they’re all there.
