This is very sweet and thoughtful..yes I wish the same for all woman this is one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to face at 50 ..2024 please be kind to us all 🫶🏼
Yes! Since entering the last leg of my transition... Entered menopause this year. It's been horrible. Never mind the hot flashes the night sweats the mood swings. Those are child's play. Anxiety over my health: my heart my arteries, my brain my legs... The panic and mental attacks that sets in physically is overwhelming. I have found a few things that do help me... But sometimes I just want to give up
My first 3 years going into menopause was the worst. It does get better, and hrt does help with some things, but not all. Doesn't help with anxiety with me unfortunately.
@@sandraflavius6144 My OBGYN said she didn't recommend bioidentical or HRT... Because of the risks. But I have found that increasing my vitamin C... Either naturally through lemons and tangerines or through natural supplementation: rose hips or acerola cherry does help! It seems to lessen my hot flashes. I've also started adding a pinch of salt to my water in the morning... This has helped immensely as well. And I do well to take one banana daily for the potassium.
Thanks for this video. I have been convinced im dying slowly. The fatigue, and all the other miserable symptoms are terrifying at times. The weight gain is depressing! Im so frustrated !
I was diagnosed with menopause in summer 2023 all of the above are present with me ..I’m dealing with a lot of symptoms at times I felt I was going insane..at 42 I had a partial hysterectomy and my life has never been the same.thank you for sharing all this I know now I’m not crazy or alone..I wish this upon no woman I’m almost 50 but the last 3 years have been awful for me presently I’m trying to deal with this one day at a time because every day is different..the worst part for me is the unexplained from the Drs and at times feel alone 😔 I’m glad your videos are a huge help explaining the unexplained 🫶🏼
@@trisha2361 No i no longer get periods since my partial hysterectomy I still have my ovaries but now facing ovaries removal because of cyst ☹️ I was diagnosed with menopause last summer because of many issues like night sweats extremely dry skin brain fog 😶🌫️ and mood swings and extreme sensitivity among many other unexplained symptoms by my OBGYN
Today one of my symptoms is "easy to cry". This video made me cry because I can relate! Thank you for making me not feel so alone in all these weird symptoms. I am seeing a naturopath who is helping me with a lot of my symptoms.
Yes the Gas have me feeling bad I can't even explain it just moves around from my back to my stomach even my but checks I have to go lay down it get so bad. 😢I just cried because it's been like this for 2 days now it goes away for week or 2 and come back. I'm trying to see if some thing I'm eating is making it worse.
I suddenly have sleep apnea. Never had an issue until last year. Now I wake up suddenly a few times a week and hubby says I snore like a bear. That's in addition to all the other symptoms. Great 😒. Thank you so much for your channel Kari. I wouldn't have made it through the past few years without you. ❤
You are an angel, thanks to your videos and explanations help me to manage my post menopause, just wish I'd found you when I was pre and in menopause. Turning women into warriors!
Thank you, Kari for these videos. Since last year, I should say precisely dec8 of 22, I can't eat carbohydrates and sugars. No pasta, white rice, white bread, etc. I get violently ill, like nauseous, throwing up/diarrhea, dizziness, panic attack and a heat rising from my neck, like flight/fight rush. Has anybody experienced this or is it only me?
Could be insulin, hormone related. Sweets have no flavor to me and too much - usually over 60 carbs - give me heartburn and nausea. This all began during the summer for me.
The itchiness drives me crazy, as well as the digestion problems😥so thank you so much Kari for being there. Never stop uploading your videos as without you on UA-cam I would be going through all this perimenopause alone. You are truly a godsend. Have a fabulous new year.
Hello Kari 🥰 many of these symptoms I deal with but the one that bothers me the most is muscle spasms 😣out of nowhere, no matter what I’m doing they kick in into my back & sometimes feels like I can’t breathe :( Until my husband rubs me down with muscle cream & sometimes gets so bad I have to take muscle relaxers which makes me sleep 🙄 So so grateful for your vids, keep em coming so I can pass em on!!! 🙌🏾🙏🏾 Thank you!!! 😊 Peace & Blessings 💕
I struggle with that, too, for several different reasons. I just want to encourage you to (if you haven't already been) track your diet for a while to make sure you're getting enough minerals. I always struggle to get enough calcium, magnesium, and potassium, which I hear affect how your muscles and nerves function. So apparently it makes my other autoimmune-based cramping problems worse! I haven't tracked my food for four days while on vacation, and my nerves are crazy tonight! If that doesn't help you out, I hope you'll find something else that does well for you. It's not fun!!!
Night sweats...covers off/covers on, repeat. Having trouble holding pee in while running to the bathroom. I also enjoy an intolerance to the cold but dread the humid summer weather more. Getting in a hot car is just unbearable for me anymore.
I just started getting cold last year. I have always been someone who ran hot . But last winter, I found myself putting on a robe that I had never even worn more than once or twice in many years. And it became my best friend. 😊This year I got myself a heated blanket.. I would’ve never thought I would be cold.
I had a terrible panic attack yesterday at 3am. I was asleep and woke up in a panic. It took everything from me not to call an ambulance. Getting old sucks😔
Oooh that itching! There's one area on my back, hard to reach without feeling like I'm pulling my shoulder out of joint! Drives me insane! Everytime I sit to watch TV, sit at the pc, as soon as I get into bed my back itches, my forehead, my scalp. I feel live a monkey, lol! The worse is if I'm texting, the itching starts while I'm trying to focus. I keep a backscratcher and sometimes have to use a fork! Last week I had long scratches on my arm and now using mederma to heal it. Sheesh! The one thing that has never been a problem is hot flashes. I dont even think it runs in my close maternal family members. I have a friend who has it so bad her hair gets soaked with sweat. Thanks for sharing! It's a bummer... Dee, NY
It is so real..apart from all the other symptoms for the last week ive been getting bad headaches i dont suffer from them its scary im waiting for a doctor to call me back..is it menapause is it something else.. you're a breath of fresh air...when women went through it years ago they were mad or moaners or whatever other label..im grateful its being recognised...its rough..
Thank you. Yes I have the digestive issues now, I found raw onions help when I'm out in the kitchen cooking. I have to stay away from my orange juice that I used to get along with just fine up until lately. I can feel every hair that has been lost to the inside of my shirt.
The worst for me are the hot flashes. They always come so suddenly & at the wrong moment. Thanks so much for all the wonderful videos. I’m 51 & ooh boy…. I truly ask myself why it’s called the fabulous 50’s. Was it just someone being sarcastic….coz I don’t feel fabulous at all. Happy new year gorgeous 🤗🤗😘
I take optibic herbel tablets are good vitamin d magnesium tablets and turmic with black pepper tablets and loads of water ❤ thank you for your information
Does anyone experience a very different pain in low back than the normal cramps as you get closer to menopause? Like a deep, dull pain that’s particularly bad while laying down? I’ve had all the tests.. CT scan, colonoscopy, ultra sound, bloodwork, chiropractic etc.. and nothing comes up in the tests.
I have tingling in my arms and legs which is exacerbated by stress. I have already done all the tests to rule out MS. Pretty sure it is a symptom of menopause. Anyone else experience tingling in extremities?
Why in the world are there no MDs specializing in this area... my gynecologist is clueless and has no idea how to help with these problems. Sadly, as a survivor of estrogen dominant breast cancer, hormones are out of the question. As a health coach I have also done a lot of research on my own and am helping myself that way. Good Health and Peace of Mind to all!
For stiffness and joint pain Omega 3 is excellent! It really worked, in two weeks my joints felt like brand new, like when i was in my twenties 👍 Coenzyme Q10 is great for tiredness and lack of energy, impressive results in a couole of weeks too👍 If taken together, these two supplements are really powerful😊 they boost and complement each other and improve our life quality in a big way!❤
(Iam on my sons account) ..I kept thinking i was going to die i read a book on perimenopause and it was like a light switch going on and i wasnt going mad !!! Not sure how far through iam but symptoms have come on quickly last 6 months .x❤
I shaved my head a couple years ago because the itch just would not go away. I was convinced that something was living up there. My hair grew back and it's fine now.
OMG, I'm going through that right now. I've always had itching spells since I was 15 because of my fibromyalgia. Now since I'm perimenopausal, the itching is insane. I have scratches everywhere and I'm so miserable with it. My doctor told me about a lotion that's not helping, benadryl is not helping 😢 I just have to ride it out 🙁
Hello! Just popping into say I just love you, your videos are so calming and really hit home I think I’ve been Ive been in Peri menopause since age 30 but used birth control pills the past 10 years now I’m 41. My biggest symptoms are mental, anxiety ocd and horrible sleep. Btw I have seen you with both wigs and your natural hair and you look just fine with both!❤
One symptom that does affect many women and can rule their lives is migraines and tension headaches. Whilst in menopause they aren't as painful as in perimenopause, they do change from once a month to several times a month at different severities. I went through menopause 7 years ago and 3 out of 4 weeks I have headaches and migraines of different severity. I can be 7-10 days without a headache/migraine. I usually have a LH migraine for 1-2 days then a tension headache for a day, then RH migraine for another day, a total of 5 days altogether. Does anyone else encounter this issue? I'm assuming some headaches are due to high cortisol and some are fluctuations in oestrogen. I'm hoping eventually it will settle!
It’s like they(doctors) are afraid to tell you ugh. But it’s a business to them so with all business they want to keep you coming back. But guess what? I continue to change my doctors
Thank you Kari for your informative videos😊. I have a lot of these symptoms, especially the dry itchy skin and extreme bloating along with fibroids that ive had fot ten years. Achy joints and stiffmess on certain days. Foggy memory at times and i have no get up and go and i was always full of energy. I take herbal supplements but dont know exactly how much they help. I might try a good brand of collagen. I hope the Lord Jesus blesses you in this new year😊
I have it all. Going on 13+ years now, it just won’t stop. Until I started the collagen recently (because of this channel) the hot flashes were hourly, without fail, 24/7. Now they have calmed down to 5 or so a day. I do wonder why I never heard any of the issues besides hot flashes from the older generations????
That’s fantastic! I always get so excited when I hear that another woman is being helped by the liquid collagen. It’s doing wonders for me too. All women in midlife should be replacing lost collagen for health. Loss of collagen in midlife affects every inch of our bodies and it causes so many symptoms and discomforts.
@@KariAnneWright Absolutely!! Best thing I’ve done and even slowly losing weight! Highly recommend Modere to my friends!! I’m soooo amazed and happy ❤️❤️❤️
Have you read the book Your Body in Balance ? It has really helped me to understand what has been happening with my body. The most valuable thing I learned is how eating enough fiber helps the body get rid of excess hormones.
Oh Kari Vagina Atrophy this one is not easy,I went through this for 8 months, and I suffer with it, burning, hottest, can't sit properly only on one side, could not sit down down,oh boy it's bad,I pray to God I don't have to go through this again
Thanks for The video Kari. I am having the symptoms you mentioned. Vaginal,discomfort and stomach upset often made me down . Always think of ending my life as it is suffering. I am 49 soon,
It is suffering but women are strong and we are better together. Your life is valuable and a gift. One day at a time. I have support groups if you want to connect with other middle aged women. It helps. The links are in the description under the video.
Thanks Dear Ladies , I used think that i am tough and strong but the suffering is really beyond what i expected I am telling myself one step at a time and stop setting expectations
God Bless you , try to enjoy the small things in life, enjoy the beauty of nature , there’s always something to be thankful for , and pray , wishing you well , stay strong sister
Oh God the itchiness! I too thought there were bugs in the house. Tortuous it nearly drove me insane. Nothing worked if anything anti histamine made it worse. Finally it settled own and now just occasional. Also had the itchy scalp quite a lot! Gonna try collagen.
@@Jesus_isLord_andGod oh dear it’s hard isn’t it? I still get flare ups now and then. I had it for almost 8 months. I found using baby shampoo helped and products with simple ingredients and little perfume helped. Also coconut oil.
Thankyou for this info , been struggling with the symptoms , for some time , pain in knees and feet is the worst , and sensitive bladder , going to try a few supplements , and look at diet . Last resort estrogen if it gets really bad
These are mild compared to what many women silently suffer with. I so wish someone - ANYONE - would speak to those of us with debilitating, terrifying symptoms.
@@anonanonymous1970 It means I feel for those struggling and I have videos on scary symptoms as well. I try to cover everything to help as many women as possible.
@@KariAnneWright I appreciate your videos. But many women are bedbound and/or can't work/drive/sustain relationships during perimenopause. In fact, about 20% of women leave their jobs over peri symptoms. I haven't seen the videos these women need.
I have just missed my first period and the very painful cramping for ten days still is happening. Is this normal? My stomach seems effected by perimenopause more and more. I have a painful upset stomach a lot. Thank you for your videos . I would feel so alone if not for them
No wonder for the past 6 months my back shoulder blades be so itchy in the evening btwn 6pm-7pm i rub my back against a spiked wall in the house for relief! My knuckles hurt in the morning as well..I be worried im developing arthoritis🤔💭
Thank God i got you Ladies to discuss things with because i know a few ladies of similar age but none seem to be suffering like me. -and i'm the one on this HRT thats supposed to be the wonder drug. Even my pal with( now ) fibromyalgia was seen swinging on a trapeze at a summer carnival ! Lol - no one seems to be a shit as me . I only read similar stories here . I only find ladies here who are experiencing the same .
I use lubricants and coconut oil for my vaginal dryness. It gives some relief, but still very sore and irritated. Im scared of taking the hormones theirs a slight cancer risk..😬😩
Does it ever end? Because I am 57 and I guess then I’m in post menopause. So how much of this is going to last you know, forever? Yikes. Also, I have one more thing that may be some of you have noticed. Since menopause, none of my deodorants that I had ever used worked anymore. Does anyone else have or have you had anything like that? That puzzled me for a very long time and I finally found one that made in a way that it actually does work. It’s a cream lotion type of full body deodorant. My therapist actually told me about it!
I genuinely want some advice please. I am 49 next month. I have been in PM for about 9 yrs I have had 2 ablations to ease extremely heavy bleeding, I have an ovarian cyst and fibroids. In the last 2 years I have had 5 periods. Following a health check in September I have lost 26 lbs. I was considered 3 stone overweight. Since the weight loss, I have resumed regular ovulation and a bleed exactly every 30 days, just like my old cycle. My boobs are killing me too. I had really hoped I was nearing the end of PM but this recent flurry of regularity is confusing me. Can anyone suggest why this might be and am I not as close to the end as I had hoped??? Happy New Year to you all. ❤
Peri periods are ridiculously chaotic and unpredictable. I had a month long period then a regular one then they stopped for 16 months and I was in post menopause and got a period.😳 Then nothing! Don’t let this get you down although it is frustrating. They could just stop again.
@@KariAnneWright thank you. I also wondered if this was my body telling me to use it or lose it!! 😬 I am hoping this might be my final fling, so to speak. Thank you for taking the time to answer. 🥰
The health anxiety over this is awful, I'm in tears most days wondering is it something other than menopause or is it menopause. I can't stand this, this is absolutely brutal what we go through 😢
The very worst symptom here is the health anxiety. Or imho, it is just the crazy amount of symptoms that prop up. I used to wonder why people ignored symptoms when they got older... but now I know... because once menopause hits... you have about 18 concerning symptoms a day... and, if you get them checked out, they usually turn out to be nothing. Women's health is never going to be good until we get better ways to test for serious issues. (such as a liquid biopsy).
This video came at the right time! My health anxiety was ramping up again today with all the body twitches/cramps/aches and this helped to calm me down. I am going to save this and rewatch when needed to calm myself. I had no idea about skin itch...I was getting embarrassed during the holidays with all the scalp scratching and was thinking it was from hair products. Thanks Kari for a great video!
Thank you Kari for another great video! And thank you so much for addressing so many health issues, we menopausal women have. As the previous subscriber mentioned, I myself thought that I am getting crazy until I found your channel 🙏🙏🙏 Many health problems during menopausal journey are simply ignored by many doctors. What they usually say is anxiety and gladly prescibe medications. Not even trying to go to the roots of the issue. Thank you again Kari for doing what you doing ❤ Happy New Year everyone 🎉
Yes I have the health anxiety, the itching I thought was something else going on like bugs, I have so much aching and pain and I am 55yrs old, the middle age spread isn't good..I am barely eating and totally off carbs and now a piscatarian and still can't lose that last 20lbs, terrible gas and diarrhea which is also due to my IBS, brain fog and short term memory loss makes me worry about dementia, thank you for enlightening us on this stage we must go through, and I pray for all women everywhere🙏🏼❤️
I’m going through all of this right now! Some of the things she mentioned I had no idea were related to menopause. The joint pain and itching your skin till it bleeds, I mean who knew? I definitely believe that diet is a huge impact on all of this. Have not tried the collagen, but will certainly look into it. I teared up, knowing that I’m not crazy. Someone else has going through what I’m going through. Thank you and please don’t stop producing videos so we know that we’re not alone.
Yes the health anxiety 😩😩😩terrible. I’m experiencing allergies sinus and headaches all for the first time in peri menopause it’s frightening and frustrating. Anyone else ??
Every day is an adventure for me. I never know what symptoms I'll have or go through. I honestly can't stand the electricity pulses that zap anywhere in my body at any given hour. People think I'm crazy when I cry out in pain or say ouch. The other one is the constant joint pain. I am so glad that I found your channel. Supplement really does help. I learned to keep them in stock because when I run out of them, it's like 10-fold pain! 😢 I'm thankful for you and for all of us going threw this. It truly does help talking about this. I'm not going crazy. This is real.
Thank you for giving a name to why I’ve been so focused on every little twitch and pain. Health Anxiety. I thought I was just going crazy or just too hyper focused on my health since I turned 60 last year. My doctor says the blood work looks good and I look great, so now I can calm down because I have a real name to my feelings. I entered menopause at 48 and it’s been a roller coaster ride. Dealing with it as naturally as possible. Diet, exercise, sleep, supplements etc… Glad I found your channel I am sure your advice will be very helpful. 😊
The itchiness for me is terrible! It's constant, all day, every day. The right side of my back is so itchy that I carry a retractable back scratcher with me at all times! I never thought it could be a symptom of menopause. Thanks for educating us. 😊
Heartburn twice this week while sleeping. Pains above breast in past few weeks. The colder weather doesn't help. A brighter and healthier New Year to you, Ms. Kari💞Thanks for the update. I absolutely appreciate All your posts. 💜
Oh yes, When the cold flashes pass in my body,I am so sick, I feel like I am going to fall , when moving around,it just changed me at once, change my mood,I am so tired of menopause, right now a hot flash take me I just moved my coat on me,😢😢 what a life
Dows any one wlse experience severe dizziness??? I have to drink iethe a antidepressant or herbal menapause tablet for it to stop...and the anxiety...awful...also, when I am in the moment of an attack, I can't stand someone touching my skin...even a slight touch is unbearable...and I love to give hugs, give comfort. Oh, this is horrible
Omgoodness Kari that's been so me lately 😢 it's been horrible. Thank u so so much for these videos. U are always posting right when I need to hear it. Wishing u a Happy and blessed New Year🎉❤ We Love u Kari!
Beef bone broth. The right kind. Made without anything. Just simple plain beef bone broth. Taste bland as you can guess!! I add a bit of ginger. Beef bone broth has so MANY benefits, not only for joints but it heals the intestines. Ginger does amazing things as we all already know. I make a cup everyday for me and a cup every other day for my 4 year old big dog to maintain his joints and gut health.
My feminine internal part often got so dry the lining cracked.Thus, I had to sit on an ice pack a lot. HRT's helped my other symptoms, but did not solve this problem. Inserting castor bean oil has been healing it. Immediately, the thick oil comforted that part, but it has taken time for it to heal the internal part's lining. But it is doing that. As I continue to do this over the months, my internal part continues to improve. Not that I think it is up to marriage. But I am 68, so the rest of me isn't either. However, I have given up the ice packs! Yippee!
@@8yearsago153 Thank you. What my doctor prescribe was estradiol cream made from wild yams. During the 10 years I used it, my other symptoms improved, but not my vagina. And my labia started shrinking and kept shrinking until it looked like it belonged on a 3-year old girl. I switched to estradiol cream made from soybeans. My labia grew to it's adult size, and my vagina improved. But I also need castor bean oil.
As long as Im getting back normal results that is something Im going to use as a consolation. I do intermittent fasting, weight training, walking and supplement with magnesium glycinate, omega 3,probiotics, a whole multivitamin and Im looking for a vit d3 with k2, an almost ketogenic diet and I use to take kelp or sometimes ashwanganda but it's a bit steep for my pockets now. These help to a certain degree and sometimes I do get the occasional joint pain, GERD and anxiety attack As I said as long as my test results are normal I use this as my consolation and I listen binaural beats or music to help me relax. My sistas Im here with you and for you
Thank you , i have all of what you just described countless visits to the dr . today included for the uti symptoms . I have mentioned the pessary before to them and just gave me another patch to use with another . So i am now going to see this pessary , due to endo + ovarian cysts i think the hrt patches are worsening my symptoms . I want to try a different method , thank you for the info on collagen + vit d , tumeric as i am determined to get on top of my health this year . Perimenopause + 2 years of menopause have really had major impact on my physical + mental body . I really appreciate this video today thank you again ✨
A new symptom I’m experiencing now is DRY MOUTH even when I’m not thirsty.😏 This is the explanation I found - When estrogen and progesterone decrease in women experiencing menopause or the time around menopause, they may experience perimenopausal or menopausal dry mouth. This is when the salivary glands may decrease in their production, and a woman’s mouth could have a dry, cotton-filled sensation to it. In my menopause experience there were 5 ugly years. I think I’m in the tail end of my meno as my hormones are probably starting to settle. I’m better but I can’t explain how but still not my old self. It’s like a big storm that left destruction and I’m the one who has to repair what was damaged and clean up the mess. Well… it feels and it looks that way - literally! Hopefully now the body will cooperate as I try to lose weight. 🤞
Yes with the itch in the middle of the back! Of course, it's where I can't see it. Have a dermatologist appt scheduled to rule out something that should be treated, but I'm 90% sure it's just one of those peri things.

My first 3 years going into menopause was the worst. It does get better, and hrt does help with some things, but not all. Doesn't help with anxiety with me unfortunately.

Ear ache and dizziness are the worst for me ..😢😢😢caused me 😢😢😢
so much health enxiety

Thank you, Kari for these videos. Since last year, I should say precisely dec8 of 22, I can't eat carbohydrates and sugars. No pasta, white rice, white bread, etc. I get violently ill, like nauseous, throwing up/diarrhea, dizziness, panic attack and a heat rising from my neck, like flight/fight rush. Has anybody experienced this or is it only me?
Processed grains and sugar are a problem for me too.
😢
I have experienced a couple of panic attacks, but they were unrelated to carbohydrates and sugar just stress.
Could be insulin, hormone related. Sweets have no flavor to me and too much - usually over 60 carbs - give me heartburn and nausea. This all began during the summer for me.
Yes, I do experience all of what you're going through and more. Be blessed ❤
The itchiness drives me crazy, as well as the digestion problems😥so thank you so much Kari for being there. Never stop uploading your videos as without you on UA-cam I would be going through all this perimenopause alone. You are truly a godsend. Have a fabulous new year.
Happy New Year!
Hello Kari 🥰 many of these symptoms I deal with but the one that bothers me the most is muscle spasms 😣out of nowhere, no matter what I’m doing they kick in into my back & sometimes feels like I can’t breathe :( Until my husband rubs me down with muscle cream & sometimes gets so bad I have to take muscle relaxers which makes me sleep 🙄 So so grateful for your vids, keep em coming so I can pass em on!!! 🙌🏾🙏🏾 Thank you!!! 😊 Peace & Blessings 💕
I struggle with that, too, for several different reasons. I just want to encourage you to (if you haven't already been) track your diet for a while to make sure you're getting enough minerals. I always struggle to get enough calcium, magnesium, and potassium, which I hear affect how your muscles and nerves function. So apparently it makes my other autoimmune-based cramping problems worse! I haven't tracked my food for four days while on vacation, and my nerves are crazy tonight!
If that doesn't help you out, I hope you'll find something else that does well for you. It's not fun!!!
Night sweats...covers off/covers on, repeat. Having trouble holding pee in while running to the bathroom. I also enjoy an intolerance to the cold but dread the humid summer weather more. Getting in a hot car is just unbearable for me anymore.
🥺
I just started getting cold last year. I have always been someone who ran hot . But last winter, I found myself putting on a robe that I had never even worn more than once or twice in many years. And it became my best friend. 😊This year I got myself a heated blanket.. I would’ve never thought I would be cold.
I had a terrible panic attack yesterday at 3am. I was asleep and woke up in a panic. It took everything from me not to call an ambulance. Getting old sucks😔
🥺😔
Oooh that itching! There's one area on my back, hard to reach without feeling like I'm pulling my shoulder out of joint! Drives me insane! Everytime I sit to watch TV, sit at the pc, as soon as I get into bed my back itches, my forehead, my scalp. I feel live a monkey, lol! The worse is if I'm texting, the itching starts while I'm trying to focus. I keep a backscratcher and sometimes have to use a fork! Last week I had long scratches on my arm and now using mederma to heal it. Sheesh! The one thing that has never been a problem is hot flashes. I dont even think it runs in my close maternal family members. I have a friend who has it so bad her hair gets soaked with sweat. Thanks for sharing! It's a bummer... Dee, NY
It is so real..apart from all the other symptoms for the last week ive been getting bad headaches i dont suffer from them its scary im waiting for a doctor to call me back..is it menapause is it something else.. you're a breath of fresh air...when women went through it years ago they were mad or moaners or whatever other label..im grateful its being recognised...its rough..
Thank you. Yes I have the digestive issues now, I found raw onions help when I'm out in the kitchen cooking. I have to stay away from my orange juice that I used to get along with just fine up until lately. I can feel every hair that has been lost to the inside of my shirt.
Yes, I had orange juice other day and made me itchy all over. Never been a problem before.
@@IamMerryjane well what the heck
@@pattycake8272 I'm tell you!
Thanks for the Information
Im 50 , yes I have discomfort menopause symptoms
The worst for me are the hot flashes. They always come so suddenly & at the wrong moment. Thanks so much for all the wonderful videos. I’m 51 & ooh boy…. I truly ask myself why it’s called the fabulous 50’s. Was it just someone being sarcastic….coz I don’t feel fabulous at all. Happy new year gorgeous 🤗🤗😘
Happy New Year!
I take optibic herbel tablets are good vitamin d magnesium tablets and turmic with black pepper tablets and loads of water ❤ thank you for your information
Where did you purchase??
Does anyone experience a very different pain in low back than the normal cramps as you get closer to menopause? Like a deep, dull pain that’s particularly bad while laying down? I’ve had all the tests.. CT scan, colonoscopy, ultra sound, bloodwork, chiropractic etc.. and nothing comes up in the tests.
🥺
I have tingling in my arms and legs which is exacerbated by stress. I have already done all the tests to rule out MS. Pretty sure it is a symptom of menopause. Anyone else experience tingling in extremities?
YES!!!!!
Yes! What test did you have to rule out MS?
Yes paresthesia is common. It happens to me as well. I had nerve conduction tests on my legs because of it.
Omg me too 🤯
@@SzazaM077 I had MRIs and a spinal tap.
Why in the world are there no MDs specializing in this area... my gynecologist is clueless and has no idea how to help with these problems. Sadly, as a survivor of estrogen dominant breast cancer, hormones are out of the question. As a health coach I have also done a lot of research on my own and am helping myself that way. Good Health and Peace of Mind to all!
For stiffness and joint pain Omega 3 is excellent!
It really worked, in two weeks my joints felt like brand new, like when i was in my twenties 👍
Coenzyme Q10 is great for tiredness and lack of energy, impressive results in a couole of weeks too👍
If taken together, these two supplements are really powerful😊 they boost and complement each other and improve our life quality in a big way!❤
(Iam on my sons account) ..I kept thinking i was going to die i read a book on perimenopause and it was like a light switch going on and i wasnt going mad !!! Not sure how far through iam but symptoms have come on quickly last 6 months .x❤
I shaved my head a couple years ago because the itch just would not go away. I was convinced that something was living up there. My hair grew back and it's fine now.
🥺
Anxiety rage moods anger is bad weight gain 10 lbs in 4 months n tired
My anxiety mood swings r baddddd n anger
Add the menopause itchiness and fibromyalgia itches together and it is living HELL
🥺
OMG, I'm going through that right now. I've always had itching spells since I was 15 because of my fibromyalgia. Now since I'm perimenopausal, the itching is insane. I have scratches everywhere and I'm so miserable with it. My doctor told me about a lotion that's not helping, benadryl is not helping 😢 I just have to ride it out 🙁
Hello! Just popping into say I just love you, your videos are so calming and really hit home I think I’ve been Ive been in Peri menopause since age 30 but used birth control pills the past 10 years now I’m 41.
My biggest symptoms are mental, anxiety ocd and horrible sleep.
Btw I have seen you with both wigs and your natural hair and you look just fine with both!❤
Thank you for the kind words. I appreciate them. Wishing you well.
One symptom that does affect many women and can rule their lives is migraines and tension headaches. Whilst in menopause they aren't as painful as in perimenopause, they do change from once a month to several times a month at different severities. I went through menopause 7 years ago and 3 out of 4 weeks I have headaches and migraines of different severity. I can be 7-10 days without a headache/migraine. I usually have a LH migraine for 1-2 days then a tension headache for a day, then RH migraine for another day, a total of 5 days altogether. Does anyone else encounter this issue? I'm assuming some headaches are due to high cortisol and some are fluctuations in oestrogen. I'm hoping eventually it will settle!
Headaches can be horrible. Dehydration and low sodium can be a factor. Often water and a dash of celtic sea salt can help.
It’s like they(doctors) are afraid to tell you ugh. But it’s a business to them so with all business they want to keep you coming back. But guess what? I continue to change my doctors
Thank you Kari for your informative videos😊. I have a lot of these symptoms, especially the dry itchy skin and extreme bloating along with fibroids that ive had fot ten years. Achy joints and stiffmess on certain days. Foggy memory at times and i have no get up and go and i was always full of energy. I take herbal supplements but dont know exactly how much they help. I might try a good brand of collagen. I hope the Lord Jesus blesses you in this new year😊
May the Lord bless you too this year!❤️
I have it all. Going on 13+ years now, it just won’t stop. Until I started the collagen recently (because of this channel) the hot flashes were hourly, without fail, 24/7. Now they have calmed down to 5 or so a day. I do wonder why I never heard any of the issues besides hot flashes from the older generations????
I’m happy the collagen is making a difference.
Kratom green tea literally got me through and now I started the modere collagen and it has done wonders for me ❤❤
That’s fantastic! I always get so excited when I hear that another woman is being helped by the liquid collagen. It’s doing wonders for me too. All women in midlife should be replacing lost collagen for health. Loss of collagen in midlife affects every inch of our bodies and it causes so many symptoms and discomforts.
@@KariAnneWright Absolutely!! Best thing I’ve done and even slowly losing weight! Highly recommend Modere to my friends!! I’m soooo amazed and happy ❤️❤️❤️
Have you read the book Your Body in Balance ? It has really helped me to understand what has been happening with my body. The most valuable thing I learned is how eating enough fiber helps the body get rid of excess hormones.
I haven’t read it. I don’t have much time for casual reading but I’ll keep it in mind. Btw fiber and broccoli both help.
Thank you for sharing this video Kari. Your channel has been a relief to me with my perimenopause journey. More power to you!💜
Oh Kari Vagina Atrophy this one is not easy,I went through this for 8 months, and I suffer with it, burning, hottest, can't sit properly only on one side, could not sit down down,oh boy it's bad,I pray to God I don't have to go through this again
It’s absolutely brutal.😔
Tell me about it this is the worst symptom of the Menopause Wolff's ointment save me try this
Thanks for The video Kari.
I am having the symptoms you mentioned.
Vaginal,discomfort and stomach upset often made me down . Always think of ending my life as it is suffering.
I am 49 soon,
Do not end your life. We are here for each other.
It is suffering but women are strong and we are better together. Your life is valuable and a gift. One day at a time. I have support groups if you want to connect with other middle aged women. It helps. The links are in the description under the video.
Thanks Dear Ladies ,
I used think that i am tough and strong but the suffering is really beyond what i expected
I am telling myself one step at a time and stop setting expectations
Thank you so much for the encouragement.
❤
God Bless you , try to enjoy the small things in life, enjoy the beauty of nature , there’s always something to be thankful for , and pray , wishing you well , stay strong sister
Oh God the itchiness! I too thought there were bugs in the house. Tortuous it nearly drove me insane. Nothing worked if anything anti histamine made it worse. Finally it settled own and now just occasional. Also had the itchy scalp quite a lot! Gonna try collagen.
How long did you have the eatchiness, I am going trugh this right now 😮
@@Jesus_isLord_andGod oh dear it’s hard isn’t it? I still get flare ups now and then. I had it for almost 8 months. I found using baby shampoo helped and products with simple ingredients and little perfume helped. Also coconut oil.
Thankyou for this info , been struggling with the symptoms , for some time , pain in knees and feet is the worst , and sensitive bladder , going to try a few supplements , and look at diet . Last resort estrogen if it gets really bad
😢
These are mild compared to what many women silently suffer with. I so wish someone - ANYONE - would speak to those of us with debilitating, terrifying symptoms.
🥺
@@KariAnneWright Not sure what that emoji means.
@@anonanonymous1970 It means I feel for those struggling and I have videos on scary symptoms as well. I try to cover everything to help as many women as possible.
@@KariAnneWright I appreciate your videos. But many women are bedbound and/or can't work/drive/sustain relationships during perimenopause. In fact, about 20% of women leave their jobs over peri symptoms. I haven't seen the videos these women need.
I have just missed my first period and the very painful cramping for ten days still is happening. Is this normal? My stomach seems effected by perimenopause more and more. I have a painful upset stomach a lot. Thank you for your videos . I would feel so alone if not for them
I call that a phantom period. It can happen. I’m not sure if that’s what is happening in your case.
Constant internal tremors with no other explanation are ridiculous for me
😢😔
Always love watching you Carie Anne thank you ❤
No wonder for the past 6 months my back shoulder blades be so itchy in the evening btwn 6pm-7pm i rub my back against a spiked wall in the house for relief! My knuckles hurt in the morning as well..I be worried im developing arthoritis🤔💭
Wow this really helps. Thank you so much ❤
My arm be killing me pain omg
😢
So true. Thank you & happy new year. 🥳
Happy New Year!
Happy new year and God bless you🎉❤🎄🙏

Hello Keri Anne, thank you for sharing this with us 💕NonnaGrace 🐓
Bloatedness gas farting burning mouth... anxiety depression... no period for two years
😔
Thank God i got you Ladies to discuss things with because i know a few ladies of similar age but none seem to be suffering like me. -and i'm the one on this HRT thats supposed to be the wonder drug. Even my pal with( now ) fibromyalgia was seen swinging on a trapeze at a summer carnival ! Lol - no one seems to be a shit as me . I only read similar stories here . I only find ladies here who are experiencing the same .
We are your tribe!😊❤️
Thank you and Greetings 👋
What is HRT I am always hearing about that but I don’t know what that is?
Hormone replacement therapy.
@@KariAnneWright all right thank you so much I was just curious cause I hear that word a lot .
I use lubricants and coconut oil for my vaginal dryness. It gives some relief, but still very sore and irritated. Im scared of taking the hormones theirs a slight cancer risk..😬😩
😢
I can relate
I tend to get up in the morning with nausea and vomit saliva with blood?
🥺
Does it ever end? Because I am 57 and I guess then I’m in post menopause. So how much of this is going to last you know, forever? Yikes. Also, I have one more thing that may be some of you have noticed. Since menopause, none of my deodorants that I had ever used worked anymore. Does anyone else have or have you had anything like that? That puzzled me for a very long time and I finally found one that made in a way that it actually does work. It’s a cream lotion type of full body deodorant. My therapist actually told me about it!
Post menopause is forever but some women eventually feel better.
Kari what are your thoughts on “bioidentical HRT”
I think it can be very helpful for many women but it isn’t appropriate for everyone. I can’t use it. If you can use it though it’s worth trying.
I genuinely want some advice please. I am 49 next month. I have been in PM for about 9 yrs
I have had 2 ablations to ease extremely heavy bleeding, I have an ovarian cyst and fibroids. In the last 2 years I have had 5 periods. Following a health check in September I have lost 26 lbs. I was considered 3 stone overweight. Since the weight loss, I have resumed regular ovulation and a bleed exactly every 30 days, just like my old cycle. My boobs are killing me too. I had really hoped I was nearing the end of PM but this recent flurry of regularity is confusing me. Can anyone suggest why this might be and am I not as close to the end as I had hoped??? Happy New Year to you all. ❤
Peri periods are ridiculously chaotic and unpredictable. I had a month long period then a regular one then they stopped for 16 months and I was in post menopause and got a period.😳 Then nothing! Don’t let this get you down although it is frustrating. They could just stop again.
@@KariAnneWright thank you. I also wondered if this was my body telling me to use it or lose it!! 😬 I am hoping this might be my final fling, so to speak. Thank you for taking the time to answer. 🥰
And RAGEEEE
😢
The health anxiety over this is awful, I'm in tears most days wondering is it something other than menopause or is it menopause. I can't stand this, this is absolutely brutal what we go through 😢
It can be brutal! Sending love!
Yes it sucks so much. I am a nervous wreck everyday. I'm terrified of all the new symptoms that are unraveling.
Without your videos, I think I would have gone crazy.❤ Thank you so much your soooo on point with this menopause crap😊 😊😊 ❤
If it wasn’t for your down to earth videos , I would be going crazy with all my symptoms. After watching your videos I’m like “phewwww” thank you!!!
The very worst symptom here is the health anxiety. Or imho, it is just the crazy amount of symptoms that prop up. I used to wonder why people ignored symptoms when they got older... but now I know... because once menopause hits... you have about 18 concerning symptoms a day... and, if you get them checked out, they usually turn out to be nothing. Women's health is never going to be good until we get better ways to test for serious issues. (such as a liquid biopsy).
I get a different symptoms every day ♥️🌹👍
This video came at the right time! My health anxiety was ramping up again today with all the body twitches/cramps/aches and this helped to calm me down. I am going to save this and rewatch when needed to calm myself. I had no idea about skin itch...I was getting embarrassed during the holidays with all the scalp scratching and was thinking it was from hair products. Thanks Kari for a great video!
Thank you Kari for another great video!
And thank you so much for addressing so many health issues, we menopausal women have. As the previous subscriber mentioned, I myself thought that I am getting crazy until I found your channel 🙏🙏🙏
Many health problems during menopausal journey are simply ignored by many doctors. What they usually say is anxiety and gladly prescibe medications. Not even trying to go to the roots of the issue.
Thank you again Kari for doing what you doing ❤
Happy New Year everyone 🎉
Yes I have the health anxiety, the itching I thought was something else going on like bugs, I have so much aching and pain and I am 55yrs old, the middle age spread isn't good..I am barely eating and totally off carbs and now a piscatarian and still can't lose that last 20lbs, terrible gas and diarrhea which is also due to my IBS, brain fog and short term memory loss makes me worry about dementia, thank you for enlightening us on this stage we must go through, and I pray for all women everywhere🙏🏼❤️
I’m going through all of this right now! Some of the things she mentioned I had no idea were related to menopause. The joint pain and itching your skin till it bleeds, I mean who knew? I definitely believe that diet is a huge impact on all of this. Have not tried the collagen, but will certainly look into it. I teared up, knowing that I’m not crazy. Someone else has going through what I’m going through. Thank you and please don’t stop producing videos so we know that we’re not alone.
Yes the health anxiety 😩😩😩terrible. I’m experiencing allergies sinus and headaches all for the first time in peri menopause it’s frightening and frustrating. Anyone else ??
Yes I was dealing with terrible sinus / skin issues/ allergies
I cut back on gluten it has truly helped!
@@lisadavis9993 I’ve been raw vegan for 12 months so no gluten. I’m hoping this goes away soon 🙏🏻
@@mandalamama7563 It will go away I know it’s frightening and very frustrating please know you are not alone 🤗
🥺😔
@@lisadavis9993I'm thinking I'll need to do the same seriously my sinuses and the headaches goodness.
Every day is an adventure for me. I never know what symptoms I'll have or go through. I honestly can't stand the electricity pulses that zap anywhere in my body at any given hour. People think I'm crazy when I cry out in pain or say ouch. The other one is the constant joint pain. I am so glad that I found your channel. Supplement really does help. I learned to keep them in stock because when I run out of them, it's like 10-fold pain! 😢 I'm thankful for you and for all of us going threw this. It truly does help talking about this. I'm not going crazy. This is real.
Ladies….have you noticed a change in the way sugar treats yu in menopause ?
Thank you for giving a name to why I’ve been so focused on every little twitch and pain. Health Anxiety. I thought I was just going crazy or just too hyper focused on my health since I turned 60 last year. My doctor says the blood work looks good and I look great, so now I can calm down because I have a real name to my feelings. I entered menopause at 48 and it’s been a roller coaster ride. Dealing with it as naturally as possible. Diet, exercise, sleep, supplements etc… Glad I found your channel I am sure your advice will be very helpful. 😊
The itchiness for me is terrible! It's constant, all day, every day. The right side of my back is so itchy that I carry a retractable back scratcher with me at all times! I never thought it could be a symptom of menopause. Thanks for educating us. 😊
Heartburn twice this week while sleeping. Pains above breast in past few weeks. The colder weather doesn't help. A brighter and healthier New Year to you, Ms. Kari💞Thanks for the update. I absolutely appreciate All your posts. 💜
My poor husband is tired of scratching my back he doesn't like it.looolll😂😂 😂😂
I don’t know if this is a common symptom. But I have cold flashes
Yup! When I get up or going to bed.
Yes it is. I sometimes get so cold I have to take a hot shower to warm up.
Oh yes, When the cold flashes pass in my body,I am so sick, I feel like I am going to fall , when moving around,it just changed me at once, change my mood,I am so tired of menopause, right now a hot flash take me I just moved my coat on me,😢😢 what a life
Yes! So cold that it takes 10 minutes in a hot shower until I even start to feel like I’m thawing out.
Oh my goodness me too! I hadn't considered that it could be menopause, but I get so cold that I have to steam myself in the shower to try to get warm!
❤Thank you for helping us all with these awful symptoms! You are helping many women! ❤
Dows any one wlse experience severe dizziness??? I have to drink iethe a antidepressant or herbal menapause tablet for it to stop...and the anxiety...awful...also, when I am in the moment of an attack, I can't stand someone touching my skin...even a slight touch is unbearable...and I love to give hugs, give comfort. Oh, this is horrible
🥺😔
Omgoodness Kari that's been so me lately 😢 it's been horrible.
Thank u so so much for these videos. U are always posting right when I need to hear it.
Wishing u a Happy and blessed New Year🎉❤
We Love u Kari!
Happy New Year!❤️
Beef bone broth. The right kind. Made without anything. Just simple plain beef bone broth. Taste bland as you can guess!! I add a bit of ginger. Beef bone broth has so MANY benefits, not only for joints but it heals the intestines. Ginger does amazing things as we all already know. I make a cup everyday for me and a cup every other day for my 4 year old big dog to maintain his joints and gut health.
I totally agree with you about the health anxiety. It’s terrifying. I never had anxiety until last year in my life. It’s just awful.
😢
My feminine internal part often got so dry the lining cracked.Thus, I had to sit on an ice pack a lot. HRT's helped my other symptoms, but did not solve this problem. Inserting castor bean oil has been healing it. Immediately, the thick oil comforted that part, but it has taken time for it to heal the internal part's lining. But it is doing that. As I continue to do this over the months, my internal part continues to improve. Not that I think it is up to marriage. But I am 68, so the rest of me isn't either. However, I have given up the ice packs! Yippee!
The atrophy is brutal. I’m glad you found something to help.
Systemic HRT or vaginal? If systemic, tell your doctor you need a vaginal treatment. I've read that you can have both if needed.
@@8yearsago153 Thank you. What my doctor prescribe was estradiol cream made from wild yams. During the 10 years I used it, my other symptoms improved, but not my vagina. And my labia started shrinking and kept shrinking until it looked like it belonged on a 3-year old girl. I switched to estradiol cream made from soybeans. My labia grew to it's adult size, and my vagina improved. But I also need castor bean oil.
As long as Im getting back normal results that is something Im going to use as a consolation. I do intermittent fasting, weight training, walking and supplement with magnesium glycinate, omega 3,probiotics, a whole multivitamin and Im looking for a vit d3 with k2, an almost ketogenic diet and I use to take kelp or sometimes ashwanganda but it's a bit steep for my pockets now. These help to a certain degree and sometimes I do get the occasional joint pain, GERD and anxiety attack
As I said as long as my test results are normal I use this as my consolation and I listen binaural beats or music to help me relax.
My sistas Im here with you and for you
Thank you , i have all of what you just described countless visits to the dr . today included for the uti symptoms . I have mentioned the pessary before to them and just gave me another patch to use with another . So i am now going to see this pessary , due to endo + ovarian cysts i think the hrt patches are worsening my symptoms . I want to try a different method , thank you for the info on collagen + vit d , tumeric as i am determined to get on top of my health this year . Perimenopause + 2 years of menopause have really had major impact on my physical + mental body . I really appreciate this video today thank you again ✨
A new symptom I’m experiencing now is DRY MOUTH even when I’m not thirsty.😏
This is the explanation I found -
When estrogen and progesterone decrease in women experiencing menopause or the time around menopause, they may experience perimenopausal or menopausal dry mouth. This is when the salivary glands may decrease in their production, and a woman’s mouth could have a dry, cotton-filled sensation to it.
In my menopause experience there were 5 ugly years. I think I’m in the tail end of my meno as my hormones are probably starting to settle. I’m better but I can’t explain how but still not my old self. It’s like a big storm that left destruction and I’m the one who has to repair what was damaged and clean up the mess. Well… it feels and it looks that way - literally! Hopefully now the body will cooperate as I try to lose weight. 🤞
I can't sleep. I want to thank you for your help. I showed my doctor your videos and he watches them now and helps other women now! Thank you
Oh wow! I can’t believe a doctor would watch my videos. Most of them think they know best. Good for him.
That's great
Grazie per i tuoi video. Sono importanti per me. Tutti pensano che sia pazza quando spiego i sintomi che ho. Ti auguro un sereno 2024 e tanta salute.
Thank you!! Finally someone talking about the digestive issues!!! My doctor recommended a colonoscopy but deep down I know it’s perimenopause related.
Yes with the itch in the middle of the back! Of course, it's where I can't see it. Have a dermatologist appt scheduled to rule out something that should be treated, but I'm 90% sure it's just one of those peri things.
All generations that have gone through menopause are resilient. You learn to adapt, accept, and work with the changes.
