Hi ladies
Does anyone get flu like symptoms with congested chest, body aches, low mood.
I've been having it for few weeks now, it's on and off. I'm sure it's perimenopause related. I don't cough or have fever.

It sounds like YES to me a few years ago i kept having these symptoms around my periods. It was awful. I had them almost for a year on and off but they stopped now. So try bot to worry. Hopefully it will stop soon for you too. Hugs

Yes! I often feel like I'm sick or hungover. It is discouraging.

I find my symptoms vary from month to month. This month my period was normal only to follow with digestive issues of bloating and constipation followed by rib pain and right back pain. The pain reminds me from when I had shingles 3 years ago. two weeks before my period I usually have some sort of pain last month it was shoulders and neck and same in December. If I get a week out of a month where I am not affected by perimenopause it's a good month. I try to carry on and keep living life but I did decide to take a break from work to see if destressing will help.
