    Hello julie. Overactive thyroid is common in middle aged women so it tends to coincide with the menopause. That's why some symptoms mirror each other so it's wise to have a full blood test.

      I'm not real sure I know it kinda goes hand in hand if that makes sense. I went like a whole year with falling to pieces I even had the worst symptoms you can have before going to doctor. I was pretty sure something was seriously wrong with me my speech even slurred. I havent had blood work for hormones to confirm perimeno.. I just turn 47 I'm pretty sure that I am.. Hope you feel better soon smile
