    Here is my story about my teenage premature menopause. I am currently on HRT to manage my condition and some of the symptoms I experienced before diagnosis such as weight gain and low self esteem and will need ivf with donor eggs if I wish to attempt to have a successful pregnancy and children.
    If anybody has any questions or would like any advice then feel free to get in touch with me. I have a keen interest in Health, especially woman's health and fertility.

    I have the same exact story as you. I have had hypothyroidism since I was 11. I got diagnosed with post menopause since I was 15. Been on HTC for 5 years now. Bone density got down and I got into weight lifting and I’m very active and eat really healthy. I can’t believe I found this video, makes me feel less alone. I feel great am 19 years old and study medicine now to actually expand reaserch in myself in the future.

      My ovaries were also checked like you and they me never developed. I won’t be able to have children. But I cope with it because I really want to focus on my career and I’ve always have had my mind on adoption.

    Thank you so much for sharing your story...I was diagnosed with POF at the age of 25 and was pretty much told I would not be able to have anymore children (I had already had a 6 year old at that point). I met my husband a year later and told him that we would not be able to have any children of our own when things began to get serious and he married me anyway...Well long story short we now have a 3 year old daughter and doctors can’t explain (I guess God had other plans for us), we are currently on a ttc journey trying to get pregnant again, we have been trying for about 2 years now and nothing, so we are looking into ivf. You are so beautiful, sending positivity your way.

    Hi Amanda, you are remarkable! Being transparent in your experience has shed light on one of the many conditions women go through as far as reproductive health goes. I am new to your channel and happy I found it. There is so much emphasis on preventing pregnancy, here in the US, UK and likely most of the world, the majority don't even consider "is the ability to become pregnant and have a live birth even there?". Although my fertility starting point is not the same, parts of the journey and the destination goals are. I can't imagine what that was like for you to feel you were being punished, that brought me to tears. It is lovely watching this and knowing you have 2 healthy sons. I am learning through your shared experiences. Thank you, Natasha aka a fellow Brit.💛

    Hi, I’d just like to say thank you so much for this video, it’s been the only kind of support system and story that I’ve found relatable. I’m currently 17 and got diagnosed with POI last year... I have never had my periods and I saw my weight increase by almost 40kgs these past couple of years. As a teen my self esteem has deteriorated and currently wrapping my head around the fact I can’t have kids, my HRT which hasn’t benefited me in any way so far, the risks and diseases associated with this condition has been a constant battle. I’ve never cried so much watching a video, every part of your story is exactly what has happened and is happening to me as of right now, from the weight gain, awkward checkups lying naked in front of doctors, students etc. , people feeling sorry for you. The last 2-3 years of my life has just been a constant downhill trying to figure out everything and have a positive outlook doesn’t help with severe anxiety :(. Also in my final year of high school and my mentality and lack of self confidence has affected my concentration and ability to maintain good relationships with my friends :( it honestly SUCKS! but I can’t express enough how thankful I am for this video and just watched your other videos !!! :) CONGRATS ON BEING PREGNANT YAYYYY! you’ll be an amazing mum❤️❤️❤️

    • @AmandaDawn87
      @AmandaDawn87  6 років тому +1

      Kristyj oh hun :( my heart bleeds for you. It's so tough so much harder than people realise but you're doing the right thing and searching for answers. The weight gain sucks, I have always struggled but have found different ways to eat to get around it. I think everyone is different and you need to find what works for you. The same with HRT, I've been on so many types and they're often fine for a while then make things worse so trial and error them - there will be one for you. Try not to focus too much on your fertility,I lost so much time worrying and stressing at times in my life where normally wouldn't be thinking about having children. Try and live for the day and concentrate on your studies, career and doing something you love. That's my only regret as now I'm pregnant and it's all ok, I just grieve for the years I let this take from me mentally. It will all work out for you. Any questions let me know and all the best xxx

    • @AmandaDawn87
      @AmandaDawn87  6 років тому +1

      also on the self esteem and anxiety front, seek counselling and really open your heart. I only done this a couple a years ago and it done so much good I wish done others ago. Try not to assume people feel a certain way about you, again huge regrets for me. you need support with this, friends will properly not understand, no one really can except us. I still get hurt now by friends. But someone professional or someone like myself can help. Often it's just not feeling alone or not normal xxx

    I was diagnosed at 34 after having my second child, the Dr' s believe it started right before I got pregnant because I started missing periods and then having a period the next month and missing one the next month then I got pregnant had my daughter and never had a period again. 6 months later I started having hot flashes and I knew those were related to menopause I Googled it and emailed my doctor told her to test my FSH and sure enough they were in early menopause levels. But thank you for sharing finding the right HRT has been a nightmare this condition is completely a nightmare! And thank you for making videos on what you ate to help improve your bone density mine has dropped since the scan I had 3 years ago and it's very hard to find information on this anywhere so thank you very much please keep making videos!

    Thank you for making this, your story is very similar to mine and it’s so nice to hear someone actually talk about it. I was diagnosed at 17 with POF because I hadn’t ever had a period and my mum was getting concerned. When I got tested they said that they think my ovaries failed when I was about 8/9 years old but obviously I just thought I was a late bloomer. I’m 21 now and I think I’m only just allowing myself to think about the effects that my condition has on my body. I already have some mental health struggles and the doctors have never told me I’d have any side effects with the HRT or POF so I’m starting to wonder what’s normal and what I’ve just never known to be any different. I’d love to hear more from you about some things to look out for and ways to minimise the impact on my body.

    I'm a little surprised and impressed that you got a diagnosis at such a young age. I had my first period at 11 and have NEVER had a regular period (I don't think I've ever had more than 3 in a row). I started telling doctors at 13 or 14. It went from "It's normal for a girl your age" (even though it had been years of irregular periods when I started bringing it up) as a teenager to "Well you don't actually need to have your period if you're not actively trying to get pregnant" as an adult. Countless doctors and over a decade of being ignored. I finally got a new doctor who actually listened and was able to diagnose me with ONE blood draw. One blood draw that could have been ordered by any of the doctors I've had over the last 12+ years. I've been put on estrogen and progesterone and am wondering how HRT will affect me as a ciswoman, since I've only ever heard the experiences of transwomen on HRT

They couldn’t figure out why I wasn’t going through puberty and I was on meds that never did anything. Finally after tests and a surgery they figured it out.

I pretended like everything was and I was fine but I was crying myself to sleep every night for 3 years straight because my first thought was “so I can’t have children” and it broke my heart. It’s hard it still is hard every single day. I’m 18 now and I do still think about my future, having kids... I still do worry but I’ve learn to accept the person I am and to pray everyday for a miracle.

I just wanted to know if HRT has helped you to feel somewhat normal.

      Hi Marianne, HRT is super important. It looks after your bone health and brain health. Without it we have many more risks to tackle! It can help to balance your mood as well so I really encourage people to have it. I had a 3 year break and ended up with low bone density so have been on it since and got back into the normal range. POF is devastating any age xxx

    Well, Amanda. I can say your story looks similar like that of my friend. But fortunately she went for treatment in Bio tex clinic. And now she is alright. Early and premature menopause can increase your chance of developing other conditions. These include. Infertility. Most women going through early or premature menopause cannot get pregnant. Stress, anxiety, and depression. Often results from infertility and other early menopause health issues. Bone loss (osteoporosis). Caused by low estrogen levels and leaves women more at-risk of bone fractures. Going through early or premature menopause can be challenging. Consider joining local support groups and talk to your doctor about any concerns you have. Learning more about your condition can arm you with the knowledge you need to make informed decisions about your treatment.

I would also recommend some counselling as you do need to grieve for the loss - strange as it sounds. Then I tried to look at it this way - I could focus on me and my career and choose exactly when I start a family - no surprises. Thats not to say it didnt hurt me every day as it did. There are alot of us on facebook groups with this condition so lots of support and places to rant and be angry. Find a good support system as I have always found friends dont understand it, especially when you are so long.

She acts as if I'm making this stuff up, but I literally wake up in the middle of the night drenched in sweat! I'm getting seen for my chronic abdominal/pelvic pain at the moment & I keep getting these ovarian cysts that ruptures. And honestly between everything that's going on I just be wanting to give up! My CoC is what keeps me going nowadays!

    Hey Amanda. Thank you for sharing your story. You are really beautiful. I had my menarche at the age of 9 years 11 months and I’m really scared . I don’t want to go through early menopause and I always wanted to have kids. I’m really stressed. Help me please

    Oh my God I was 9 When I got my period. I never had abnormal periods and now I'm getting it 2x in one month some months. I have an appointment with my doctor because I thought it was cancer I thought I was dying. I am praying at this point that its early menopause/premenopausal symptoms 😢. Thank you for this video

      Hi Ray, I hope you get a good diagnosis. There are many other hormonal and fixable things it could be and I hope for your sake is it not only not cancer but also not early menopause as it is not a nice diagnosis to have. Best of luck

    I think I’m going through this now. I’m 35 and I have missed three periods- and my ovulation test are positive every day. I’m having hot flashes and tired all the time. I started my period at nine and been regular my whole life. Although yours started a lot earlier in life than even most early menopause. I thank you for this video.

    Hi Ladies. I have ovarian cancer and due to have my last ovary removed soon. Im very nervous about surgical menopause and all the problems. How long did it take you all to feel"normal" again and get the right HRT? im very fatigued now and overweight because of hormones and im worried this will get worse

    • @AmandaDawn87
      @AmandaDawn87  4 роки тому

      Hi, I'm so sorry about your diagnosis and journey. HRT is so different for everyone I'm afraid and can ever changing. To be honest as I was so young I am not sure what normal feels like, I struggle with tiredness alot. I highly recommend seeking a POF specialist as they offer a lot more then general doctors that just choose a HRT then try a new one. They will look into what level of each hormone works best for you. I highly recommend contacting the daisy network which is a charity for POF which caters for worldwide and has lots of information from specialist doctors x
