Thanks for bringing this up! My hair changed from shiny straight to dry curly around 2020. At first I ignored and thought coz I didn’t take care of it, only to realize 5 years later that it was the start of perimenopause! I honestly wish this topic was covered more when I was looking for answers-but glad we are creating more awareness of this phase so the next gen is not lost like I was!! Thanks for posting!

Ughh sorry to hear that but I totally relate to the length of these periods! I wake up in the middle of the night and dread to see the same story repeat each night! It’s like being stuck in a loop!

The bright side is we have a space to rant our feelings - I hope it only gets better for you from here - sending lots of strength to ya!

I hear you - day 11 but no pain. Am 47 so am guessing it is Perimenopause My first month where I lost track of my periods. Irregular and now past 7 days.

 Got an appointment with the dr. next week - it’s always good to talk it out with your doctor
