I'm always amused when they call it the menopause, as though it's some sort of item that arrives one day through the postal service.
All our fluctuating hormones can cause weird and wonderful symptoms.
One of which is that you become sensitive to various things, the vaginal tissues become thinner and drier, there's not very much lubrication either so sometimes there can be a little friction which can cause a little bleeding.
Peeing a lot, yep, me too.
I was prescribed very low dose Oestrogen vaginal pessiaries as I had that problem too. Discuss options with your family doctor or practice nurse. Some practices have well women clinics too which can be helpful.
Drink plenty of water. Keep hydrated. Avoid fizzy drinks and, if you can, cut down on tea and coffee. That should help.
If you possibly can, don't Google symptoms, it only makes things more difficult. Groups like this are the best way of finding out things from women going through menopausal symptoms.

That's ok. It's not at all unknown. What we have to try is to find some way of stopping this vicious circle of anxiety that will work for each of us. We're not all alike. We're not clones, so we each have to find what works and what doesn't.
The human brain is amazing. However, it can fool us into thinking weird, wonderful and strange stuff at times. At night, especially if we're on certain medications they can cause strange dreams.
Sometimes our sleep is disrupted so we don't get all the healing sleep our body needs. That can make us feel tired and less able to cope with day to day life.
It will pass. It will pass. I say that to myself every day. When you are struggling it may not seem it will ever go, but it will.
You are strong. You may not think so just now, but you are. We all have doubts but we are strong too.You've taken the first step by posting on this forum. Remember. We are all here for each other.xx
