I am a female and this is about female menopause. I am writing to say that YES I have met female menopause and what an experience it is!

The symptoms started at age forty and actually even in my late thirties.

I have experienced many of the normal symptoms. The symptoms come and go often; sometimes they stay for a prolonged period of time. I did at first search for help online and also through doctors.

I spoke to my gynecologist and also went for a check up. I also spoke to close friends and family. I have experienced hot flashes where at one moment I am sweating for no reason and then the next moment I am cold.

I do not know why. I hate going through this. The funny part of this is that I found out that you can experience menopause even if you do not have a uterus. If for some reason you have had a hysterectomy, you can still experience menopause.

Not all women experience menopause, and for some women the symptoms are worse than others. My symptoms also include mood swings, insomnia, drowsiness. I’ve had almost all of the symptoms you can have. I discuss it often with my friends.

We compare what our symptoms are. Some of them lie and say they haven’t gotten there yet but when they express a symptom, you can tell that they are going through it as well. It’s quite a unique experience to go through menopause. Menopause is horrible I didn’t know that men can go through it as well.
