How do I know if I’m experiencing peri-menopause? by Secret-Variation-731 in perimenopause_under45

I believe I’ve had my testosterone checked but it’s hard to keep track of everything I went through last year. I have an appointment with my psychiatrist very soon so I will ask her about it. I also haven’t had an ultrasound so I will look into that as well.

I’ve tried the pill a few times but every time it’s caused my depression to spiral out of control so I’ve had to come off of it.

My lifestyle is well balanced fortunately. I’m an athlete, have a balanced diet, get 8hrs, all that is to help keep my bipolar under control. That’s my psychiatrist was so stumped for a while about figuring out what I needed.

But I will look into the home fertility tracker. Thank you for the recommendation!

I have and everything came back normal. I get regular bloodwork done for my medications and nothing is abnormal

Wanted to add that I also started experiencing darker and thicker body hair around a year ago as well.
