    My fsh was 9.6 and I'm peri menopause I would think you're in menopause. I was led to understand that at fsh10 and above the ovaries are not functioning very well and failing (peri menopause) and the higher the number gets show ovaries failure (menopause)

      Hi

      Thanks for response. I had bloods done and got letter from gp saying they are within the menopausal range. On the paper works it reads FSH level 34.9 u/L and LH level 37.7 u/L

      Been getting hot flushes on and off this years, and waking me at nights; was getting sweats a year or two ago; plus high anxiety-more a couple of years ago-and palipitations more ongoing-but worse when anxiety was high. Been real moody and irritable. Periods been particulary last 2-3 years. Now not like clockwork, but still have them and they take a little while to start after browny stuff. My 'sexy' has gone...or comes for visits not as often! Etc, etc...

      Even the test result says positive, I don't know why I am still seeking information, but I am....

      Be glad when my periods stops for good! It's like I don't beileve I'm anywhere near menopause until that happens.

      Hope this all makes sense. When anxiety was really bad 2-3 years ago, I went on srri sertraline and that did help take edge off. Weaned myself off under year ago. Take 10mg amitriptyline for tension headache pain relief; tension headache also has eased up, bur still take amitriptyline because it helps me get that much needed sleep....
