    I have found magnesium to really help with constipation. I use a magnesium fizz that you add to hot water. Magnesium is great for so many things especially muscles (I have night muscle cramps) and also helps in the regularity department. Just thought I'd mention this. The best to you all!

    You must explained all of mine,

    Except I have a doctor who will not have any of it and says I'm too young and refuses treatment as bloodwork came back normal (when I already read that these tests aren't accurate as our hormones fluctuate daily even hourly,

    Wish I had been aware of perimenopause 3 years ago because I had a good doctor then (I moved 2 years ago and had to change doctors),

    Its not right we aren't aware of it and suffer so much its like being robbed of years of your life stuck in a dark low place and you wait to feel better,

    Every morning I wake hoping I feel better if I feel okay and do some house work or something small it makes me ill in the nignt so I can't win,

    So I know exactly how you feel xx

    Dear all,

    I have been having spotting before the period come/in between period. Around after 15-17 days from the 1st day of the period and lasted till my period come.

    Never missed my period, she will come every month.

    Any have the same experience with me?

    Is this perimenopausal symptoms?

    It started in 2020 and lasted for 9 months already

    I am 45 years this year

    Does perimenopausal cause enlarge lymph node in neck ?

    I google here and there and seeing cancer every way.

    It is so worrying, i even have nightmares about my health and terrible sleep.

    Waking up almost every hour.
