Hi - I'm RedB and it seems I'm going through the menopause at 45. Feeling a bit depressed about it. I'm having flushes in the night (not super sweaty yet) and occasionally in the day, but it seems my main sympton is anxiety and bad temper! I'm struggling with it to be honest, I have a 6 year old and I am worried I'm sharper with her than I should be. I've had a blood test, results were very high levels of whatever were expected to be high (FSH?) which indicated I was definitely in menopause. Had no period for 2 months after being fairly regular before, but we'll see what happens on that one!
Anyway, looks like there is a lot of info here, so .... hello!
