Question;-I’m 45  I started feeling strange sensations in my body at odd times in the month.Sometimes feeling weak in the arms and legs (almost tingly). I find that if I miss a meal I feel just dreadful, even though I may not feel that hungry. My breasts can tingle more than they used to and at odd times during the month (not just approaching a period like they used to).

I don’t feel ill as such, just tired at times.Its almost like I get a ‘rush of hormones or sensations’.

Am I normal? I’m quite scared at times..my partner is very understanding but its so difficult to describe what’s happening

This may be the start of the peri menopause as several of the signs you have already experienced ….YES you are normal.

Keep a diary of your feeling and symptoms, note how your body is changing…..

Look at your diet, it essential to keep blood sugars level, not to skip & miss meals as this causes soaring highs and lows in the blood sugars and this in turn will affect hormonal balance.

Do share how your feeling, read information found on this site, become aware then you’ll be more prepared  as you approach the menopause.
