Hi, I am really pleased to be accepted in to the forum!
I went through the menopause at 46 and am just starting to get my head above water!
My Mother had a difficult surgically induced menopause, after a hysterectomy at 46 years old. She suffered scar tissue and her hot flushes still haven't stopped, she claims, at 68!
I have been luckier and in fact, found the peri-menopause years more tricky, experiencing migraine and palpitations in particular.
Having 4 daughters of my own, the whole subject has become a passion and a quest to find a lot more information for them, than was available to my Mum and I.
Looking forward to sharing with lots of you.
