    I am 39 years old and i had an hysterectoy about 5 years ago, i still have my ovaries. I have had very very bad mood swings which i am generally a happy person but lately i feel a dark cloud come over me and i dont trust myself which makes me scared.. and my back goes very hot and sweating at night and it comes up from my feet and takes a lot for me to cool down, also not sleeping well tossing and turning early hours of the morning. I have had a blood test and all normal but i feel i am not in control of my body and feel i have no one to talk to about it please help with any suggestions what to do??? I have thought about going back private to see my gyne surgeon what do you think ???

    I am 53years and 7months and not had a period for 13months until
    yesterday when one has started yet again. I thought that it was all over
    and have had no problems to really complain about. I was enjoying my period free life, so why and does this mean I am at square one again.
    Thanks.

    Does taking the contraceptive pill mask the symptoms of the menopause. I 49 and am taking Microgynon.

    Hi I am 50 years old and have been suffering with symptoms such as night sweats, tiredness, sleepless nights etc but I have a very weird sensation,all I can say it is like little electric shocks going off all over my body but more so on my face and hands. I went to the doctor who referred me to a neurologist who found nothing. My iron is low and I am taking tablets and for a while the sensation stopped but it is back now as bad as ever. Do you think this is a sign of the menopause, I still have regular periods and if so is there anything you can recommend. It is driving me mad and has been for 2 years.
    Many thanks

    Any synthetic hormone will mask changes ..Seek advice if you have been on this long term

    If you are not happy with The advice of your GP ask for a 2nd opinion, this may be from a gynaecologist who is the expert !
