I know there are a ton of syptoms of menopause but here are mine. 

Hot flashes,upset stomach,headaches,lack of sleep,fuzzy hair on the face, crying jags, and loss of desire for sex. The lack of desire is the one I am not really sure of.  Is it a syptom of menopause also?  I have a feeling it is but just wonder what syptoms others have. So anyone what syptoms do you have?

    Many women experience some physical and emotional symptoms during menopause, caused by hormonal imbalance. Some common symptoms are Periods that are heavier or lighter than usual, Hot flashes, Dry skin, eyes or mouth, Sleeplessness, Decreased sex drive, Allergies, Bloating, Weight Gain, Dizziness, Mood Swings and many more. Mood swings are surprisingly common, but can be hard to cope with.

      Pretty much had them all.  The mood swings have settled thank goodness.  It is just miserable.

    RhondaS and other ladies, I too have lost all desire to make love as it is too painful.  It is highly distressing as I love my husband so much.  Have tried all the creams including hormone ones and haven't got on terribly well with them.  I know there are other methods of having romantic pleasure, but I simply don't want to be fiddled with any more.  The question is, does desire return after we're through the other side???

      The question is, does desire return after we're through the other side???  Good question.  Maybe someone can give us that answer.
