I’m so pleased I found this forum. The last few days of headaches and a pulsating vibrating feeling in my groin has had me going crazy and only a couple of hours sleep last night. I saw posts about this vibrating feeling at about 3am and the relief that it’s not just me and there is a reason, was palpable. Looking forward to sharing more.

Thanks everyone  :-) I’m 50, 2 years since I came off the pill , not had a period for years due to the pill type. No periods since I stopped. Have very little symptoms so far… until now. Honestly feel like everything is changing. My hair (head) is feeling less full, hardly need to shave legs etc but my facial hair is increasing. And I know this sounds vain but my looks are changing, any final attractiveness left is going I just look wrecked and sad. Husband says I look fine which of course does not help lol. Hobbies are crafts - love them they keep me sane.

 ;D. what would you have your husband tell you?  Wear a brown paper bag .............

No one is vain on here - stuff happens due to a lack of oestrogen. Do read the vaginal atrophy threads - 4warned is 4armed!

My hair follicles aren't putting out as much hair, it's not falling out - simply not growing as fast so it begins to look thin  >:(.  I started a thread years ago: My Chin! : have a read and a giggle.
