Hello, am new and in London, UK
« on: January 17, 2022, 08:05:41 PM »

Hey,

I have been having night sweats and really bad mood swings, also my cycle has changed, I suspect I'm menopausal.

I'm 46 and have an almost 3 year old.

Just started black cohosh and red clover today.

Some ladies find that keeping a mood/food/symptom diary useful to chart progress. 

Peri-menopause - the years prior to the last monthly bleed = menopause.  Have a look round the alternative room .  Make notes.

Peri-menopause begins sometimes years B4 the final bleed.  Then we get into menopause ....... clear as mud  ::)
