    Wow! You described my current symptons in a nutshell. Except for the diarrhea, I have constipation all the time!! 😦 It's miserable. I am 45 and have been going through perimenopause since I turned 38. These recent symptons have only become highly bothersome over the past few months. They were always there in cycles, but now they are taking over my life. I completely understand your plight.

      try aloe vera juice and a probiotic and plenty of water everyday. My constipation has got better.

    thank you for your support its means a lot to me.

    How are you now with all your symptoms? I've had headaches, liver pain, major acid reflux, hair loss, breakouts of spots, nausea, brain fog, very heavy periods, two breast scares even more 😢

    Now leg and tailbone pain!

      Hi Edith

      My spots are cystic ones so painful! I'm using a good cleanser and a cream by zoe bee have a look at her range. I use the green cream and aloe and avocado one.

      They are underneath spots. My stomach has been like this for 2 years had endoscopy all clear apart from mild gastritis.

      I take aloe vera juice, a probiotic and completely changed my diet. Had a food tolerant test done too.

      When its really bad I take antiacids only for a few days as they are not the answer.

      I'm constipated some days too and my bowels have changed due to peri!

    Hi Kim,

    I can totally relate! I had a partial hysterectomy at 39, kept my ovaries but perimenopause started. I was crazy, off the chain with attitude and anger and all kinds of mood swings. Started on bio identical hormones around 42 and did them for about 5 years. They were so expensive, so I went off them for about a year. Been back on them for about a year, but being a couple weeks from turning 50, I've experienced the worse stomach problems that seem to happen the first 5 days of the month. My stomach bloats like I'm pregnant, and I can feel it coming on. My stomach growls like I am hungry, but have so much anxiety and always feel like i cant catch my breathe. I've tried ginger pills, teas, adding estrogen, applying testosterone, nothing helps. I feel like I cant cope during these days. I dont really know if i am still in perimenopause or menipause because i havent had a period since hysterectomy. Dry skin, thinning hair, painful intercourse.. hot flashes followed by cold waves... we are in the same boat! They say it will pass and i hope its soon!

    I know how you feel. I ate a couple of hours ago and about an hour ago, I felt like I was dying. Nausea, sweating, and just vapor locked/gassy. Ugh! I hate feeling like this and I go from burning hot to icy cold in seconds with it. I took a gas pill and burped and feel some better. I have been going through this sort of stuff since my late 30s and I am just three months over 50 now. I wish I could tell you when it stops but I don't have the answer to that myself.

    Last week, my knees and elbows nearly drove me crazier than I already am. This week they are fine. It is like a nightmare ride on a roller coaster and you never know what symptom is coming next. Plus, I had my period the week before last and it stopped last week around eight days. This has been torture for what is now going on 15 years. 😭️
