    You are not alone, some days I forget stuff too, I even forget people's names, or if I'm talking I quickly forget what topic we were chatting about.  luckily it's not an everyday problem as my friends would think I'm going crazy....lol... Yes I'm sure it's another meno symptoms...

    I know my memory is shot too. I was looking one day all over the house and my purse for my reading glasses, and couldn't find them. Guess where they were? On top of my head. Craziness right?

      Oh that's nothing. I was looking for my phone so I could leave the house and couldn't find it anywhere because I was talking on it. Lol

    I almost did the same with my cat, but he's on steroids and couldn't remember if I gave him his pill, so I just skipped it. I didn't want to mess around with prednilisone. This is normal I guess.

    Forgetfulness is definitely one of the biggest and hardest challenges we have to face while in perimenopause. I took Ginkgo Biloba for it and it seemed to help quell that symptom. It also helped with tinnitis. Killed two birds with one stone.

      I might try that, can that forgetfulness happen just in a matter of mintues ?

      Yes, it can happen anytime. but most of the time it's all the time, lol. At least while at the peak of perimenopausal symptoms.
