Last spring one of our writer's sent a note to several women on our staff
that read, "Help! I think I'm dying!" A day or two later I received
this question by e-mail? "Hi. I'm 37 and for the past 3 years have
been experiencing some strange stuff. I have never been the sickly type
but I'm beginning to wonder if I might be premenopausal. My symptoms:
"new" thick facial hair, intestinal and stomach problems, slight occasional
dizziness, feeling "out of it", tired, full blown panic attacks, quick
changes in blood pressure, feeling of fullness in head, heart palpitations.
Am I going nuts or could I be headed into early menopause?" I realized
then we needed to address this 'happening' of life on the web site. --Sharon
"Although menopause has been defined as a point time, in truth this
is a process which unfolds over many years. These years bring a variety
of changes associated with decreasing estrogen levels. These changes
or "symptoms" most often start in a woman's 40s and sometimes in her
30s. Many women are surprised by two things: the age at which menopause-related
symptoms can begin, and the range of symptoms. Other terms often used
to discuss menopause include "pre-menopause" (all the reproductive years
leading to menopause), "peri-menopause" includes the time immediately
prior to the menopause (when the endocrinological, biological, and clinical
features of approaching menopause commence) as well as the first years
immediately after menopause, and "post-menopause" (all the time beyond
menopause)."

Do you have signs of menopause or peri-menopause? Are you having
hot flashes or other symptoms? Have you been forgetting things? Wondering
if you're going crazy? Feeling totally alone? Does your family tell you to take a
"chill pill"? Have you been thinking about HRT? If you answered "YES"
to even one of those questions, then you have found the right place!
As you wander through this website, you will start feeling more confident
and less alone......you may even recognize the person in the mirror
again! There are many websites that have information, products, advice,
support, news reports and more, but we also need to laugh and this is
the ONLY place to get the most natural form of HRT ever created...
