background

I am 42 and have been getting a lot of stress lately. My periods are more frequent, and can be heavy. I do have sore breasts for longer, even when my period has finished. I’m tired and feel low and irritable. My mum started the menopause at 43. Do you think that I am starting mine?

Do you have questions? Please feel free to ask.
