    41 here! Just started on bcp 4 months ago even though I had tubal ligation after my daughter. Wow has it balanced me out. Finally the night sweats, rage, brain fog, chronic fatigue, insomnia etc etc has subsided and I feel me again.

    Dr. Haver, I am 68, and started menopause at 50. I have never had any type of treatments for menopause, other than eating fruits, vegetables, lean meats, seafood, healthy fats & carbs. I also lift weights and perform cardio five days per week. The last three years has been unbearable - - unable to sleep, averaging 3 to 4 hours per night, severe cravings, night sweats ( thermostat set at ), and loss of libido. My primary care doctor said at 68, it is too late to start menopause treatment. Would you please explain to me why did it take so long for me to begin having menopause symptoms, and is it too late to start hormone therapy?

My understanding is that estrogen can cause my endometriosis lesions to start growing again. I am really hoping to find the right questions to ask , articles to read and care to advocate for myself. I am so grateful for you being on this journey with me so far.

It would be nice just to go to a regular primary doctor or a specialist that doesn’t cost a fortune I went to my primary Doctor Who doesn’t know anything about menopause and then I went to an endocrinologist who ran my labs and said oh yeah you’re in perimenopause, but gave me no advice or help on what to do I’m 50 years old.

    OBGYN and menopause specialist Dr. Mary Claire Haver discussed her book
    “the new menopause “
    which Dr. Haver went into the advancement of menopause awareness today versus earlier years in both the medical industry and people’s knowledge of menopause. The open discussion of menopause symptoms such as different types of menopause such as perimenopause Drew has who discussed her interest in Dr. Haver’s view of women having menopause not necessarily being identical to others symptoms and needs. Gayle pointed out Dr. Haver’s medical tool kit which is based on menopause symptoms ,which I I thought was a great idea, along with Dr. Haver’s book having the quote
    “ menopause is inevitable, suffering is not”. ❤❤

      I have breast/prostate cancer survivors in my immediate family and although I am not a BRCA gene carrier, I have also been advised against HRT. I just realized that I was dealing with perimenopause about 4 years ago and it was horrible, there were times I thought I was going crazy. I am now in full menopause, a couple of months ago I was starting to gain weight in my midsection and feeling very sluggish despite consistently exercising 3x a week. So I changed things up. I started doing time restricted eating (eating good foods during my eating window), I gave up diet soda(which I consumed daily), drastically decreased my sugar intake and traded the elliptical machine for weights. I’m on week 6 and I am feeling so much better. My clothes are back to feeling good, I have more energy, more clarity of thought and headaches are gone. I also had a blood panel last week and everything is looking good. Not sure about your options, but talk with your doctor about making other changes to help you along. I imagine hrt to be a magic bullet for most women, but some of us have to make our own magic.😉. I pray that you never have to battle cancer again. Stay brave and strong, be kind to your body and work on doing the best you can with what you’ve been given. 💕

    Try 16+ years of hell. The birth of my third child at almost 36 triggered my hormonal changes. The OB ran a blood test to figure out why I was becoming so cranky. I would cry at commercials & be sweating when it was in the 40s outside. Post partum had my temper volatile. My Sister's aunt began & ended her menopause between age 36 & 38. So it isn't written in stone when & how bad it will be. We are all different. Personally I have known women who didn't experience any of the typical phases like hot flashes. But who suffered depression beyond belief. I love that Dr. Marie Claire Havers is speaking out for women, people need to at least try to be understanding.

    I am in perimenopause now in California and Dr. Mary Claire’s located in Texas and you have to fly in to see her and I think it’s $1100 just to get in the door. It would be nice just to go to a regular primary doctor or a specialist that doesn’t cost a fortune I went to my primary Doctor Who doesn’t know anything about menopause and then I went to an endocrinologist who ran my labs and said oh yeah you’re in perimenopause, but gave me no advice or help on what to do I’m 50 years old. I know I’m in perimenopause, and I have no idea how to treat myself still
