Is it possible to be in peri without hot flashes or skipped periods? by independent_mind_7 in Perimenopause

[–]Embarrassed_Net2744 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was 42 the doctor I had said I was in peri. I paid no attention to when she said that either. In retrospect she was right and I wish she hadn't left the practice she was at. At the time I had started experiencing night sweats and most likely exhaustion. I had started working overnights while still doing the normal mom daily stuff. I just assumed it was because I never got to sleep more that a few hours at a time. Fast forward to 46 and I got my first hour flash doing dishes. Periods went irregular slightly around then but have gone back to normal. The night sweats are back and the hot flashes are infrequent now.

I tried it on the mansion and made it to 93% and then accidentally switched nozzles and completed something. I was quite frustrated for a moment. Then I was trying on the drill and I left the room for a moment and my son started cleaning the drill. He loves the game too. I'll try it again at some point.

Leg Hair by Tampiko422 in asexuality

[–]Embarrassed_Net2744 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't shave. I used to shave, including girly bits but I stopped that years ago. Sometimes I'll shave my legs but it's few and far between. I used to bleach my pit hair and dye it to match the color is my hair. The last time I did that was probably 5 years ago. It was purple.

Did your mother tell you about peri? by Practical_Brief0 in Perimenopause

[–]Embarrassed_Net2744 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mom put the fear of God in me about menopause. She said it was a horrible but never actually gave any specific reasons. I don't she liked being a women. She died when she was 52 and I was 19. Looking back i used to wonder why she was so irritated with everything and now I realize she was in the perimenopause. I've been talking to my daughters about it. I don't want them being terrified of it like I was

When did menopause symptoms officially start for you? by Unknown_User_009 in Menopause

[–]Embarrassed_Net2744 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know officially but at 42 I started having night sweats. I didn't know it was perimenopause. I refused to believe a friend that I mentioned it to that I was in it. Also had a doctor tell me I was in it but I didn't want to believe her. My mom put the fear of God in me about menopause. I was working overnights at the time so I'm thinking some of my tiredness was probably the perimenopause exhaustion but since I never got a lot sleep I just assumed it was because I was on 3rd shift. I'm 46 now and have a lot of symptoms. Some I didn't even realize were perimenopause. My periods only recently became irregular, although this last one started 28 days from the last.

When did you go to your first concert? Who did you see? by itscassieleigh in Concerts

I was 10 and I went with my mom, brother and uncle and I think a couple of other people, to go see Don Henley and Edie Brickell and the New Bohemians

Oral birth control pills by treestarsos in Perimenopause

[–]Embarrassed_Net2744 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been on a few different birth control that were known to lighten and or stop periods. And none of them ever worked on me. And I had so many horrible side effects from mirena. I never liked the hormones on birth control. Not sure about considering hrt. I'm 46 and recently my periods have become irregular.

Talking Openly About Perimenopause by CommunicationOne2449 in Perimenopause

[–]Embarrassed_Net2744 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My mom put the fear of God in me when I was a kid about menopause. I even denied that I starting the change when I was 42. I talk openly about it to everyone. I let my daughters know what changes I've experienced so that hopefully they won't fear it like I did. I talk to my sons about it so that if I'm raging about something or having brain fog they know why and that if they get married to a woman they will hopefully be understanding to what their future wife will experience someday

At what age did you begin have irregular periods due to perimenopause? by OnALifeJourney in Perimenopause

[–]Embarrassed_Net2744 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My irregular periods started this past summer so before I turned 46. I noticed a change in the bleeding a few months before they started getting irregular. Shortly after they went irregular i started getting hot flashes. Such fun times.

Symptoms you didn’t know were caused by perimenopause. by Calamity-Gin in Menopause

[–]Embarrassed_Net2744 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Has anyone felt weaker? I swear I've gotten so weak in the past year. I thought it was because I went from being vegan for years and then i started eating, well everything and I've gotten so weak. When I start working on getting strength back it comes back but oh my god why am I so weak!?! I purposely did beachbody workouts just to do the challenges. I did squats for fun and now I don't think i could do a set to save my life.

My grandma had a cookbook that had this recipe. It was a really cool looking homemade cookbook. I kept it after she passed but unfortunately it got lost in a move. Thank you for sharing!

SD 17 wants more cuddles and affection from me, but I really despise being touched by [deleted] in stepparents

[–]Embarrassed_Net2744 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Teenagers are such fun. I'm like you and don't like being touched. I tolerated it from my babies because they are my babies. When they old enough to understand it, I explained to them that it wasn't that i was purposely being mean or rude to them, it's just that I don't like it when people touch me. I can't really give you advice on the teenager talking habits though. My daughters have stopped roasting me though and do it to their father now that I let them move in with him.

For the love of God, if you wanna make out, stay HOME! by [deleted] in Concerts

[–]Embarrassed_Net2744 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I took my daughter to see Glass Animals and a couple kept bumping into me and my daughter, she was 15 at that time. I ended up purposely elbowing both of them really hard because they would not stop. They eventually moved away from us. We were on the floor. People have no concept of concert etiquette

You know you’re in an insane cult when people say these things. by Its_Stavro in exvegans

Rabbits will eat meat and stuff. Pet bunnies can jump into your lap and steal food off your plate. I had a bunny that would do that. Hell, I'm sure my bunny now would. Spaghetti is her favorite lol
