Hello, I am 51 years old and premenopausal. My OB/GYN seems to think my menopause is still quite some way off. My periods are a little less regular than in my thirties but not very irregular. I have not yet noticed any menopause symptoms _ hot flushes etc.

But in the last two/three weeks I have noticed my hands tingle a little and very slightly my feet. Has anyone else experienced this? Can this be hormonal/related to perimenopause?

I always worry about my health but am in generally very good health

Thanks for any reassurance

My arms and legs do a lot at night mostly. Amongst the night sweats keeping me awake at night. Fun times...

  Yes fun times! But was the tingling your first symptom? If it really is 'just' the menopause thats OK but I'm not sure if it is. I don't have any night flushes (yet...)

  That's how it all started with me. Tingles and restless legs at night. Welcome to the club. Xx

  Thanks Rosedee - thats reassuring to know it can start with tingling, even before sweats and mood swings.
