My friends is very concerned. She has noticed that her menstrual pattern, recently, has been odd. She has been having very frequent, and heavy, periods. The past four weeks she has been bleeding very lightly, but her PMT symptoms have been quite severe. She has been under a lot of stress in the past three weeks, and we think that it has affected her hormonal balance. In the past she has had different physical symptoms of stress. Although she is now 45, she is still wanting to try for a baby. Is it possible to conceive whilst she is experiencing these symptoms?

Stress plays a very big factor in hormonal health, and it is quite posible that this latest episode of stress has caused these symptoms.

Unfortunately, the older women get, the less likely conception is, even if they are still ovulating.

I would suggest that she contacts Foresight, as they focus on conception by natural means and they are very successful.
