Yes it's very surprising you don't have peri- menopause or even menopause - you're lucky. But your doc is right -if you're still having a period then yes there's the possibility of pregnancy - yikes...imagine that  . I'm glad you're going to try a low dose anti depressant - I hope it helps you. Start taking 1,000 mg of vitamin D - many people are difficient. Please promise you will get regular pap smears from now on - I hope the test results give good news. Good luck and I hope you feel better  |
lol..yeah..guilty at that. ...."Bad Shang"..lmao.
I used to have paps every year, but for some reason....missed one, then another..and so on. Not anymore, though. Back on track with that. What's odd with that, too, is...I have absolutely no problem with paps, or any kind of physicals...(other than my phobia of needles).
I have to question, though....AM I really lucky for not having menopause at my present age? I mean....granted, its unusual, and with that, I'd think that alone would create other issues...(such as needed birth control? I stopped using birth control longer than I can even remember). And with my sex drive absent....isn't THAT a form of birth control in its own right?....lmao...(I'd like to think so....though, that don't make hub anymore pleasant to be around...roflmao).
Thanks Lynn...have a super day!....
