      I went to the doctors about 4 years ago complaing of excessive sweating thinking it was a side effect of my new anti depressant and didn't think anything to do with menapause as was on the injection birth control, doc suggested a full blood history to check for infection etc and that's when the results came back saying I was menopausal. Hope that this helps šŸ’•ā¤ļø

        @LouB yes. I have been on wellbutrin and Prozac generics for a long time. Tried the pill but it made me sick. Severe bleeding, tingling numbness and terrible rash so can't do that. Curious about natural supplements or ambren. Had bloodwork done but not at gyno at primary care. I've heard cholesterol cam be related to hormone levels. Should I do blood work at the gyno? Also, I'm curious about possible endo. But probably with being almost 44 it's probably the start of the big M lol.
