When I was 42 yrs old, I was thrown into menopause due to a hysterectomy. My doc put me on HRT, which I took for several years, and I had NO symptoms of menopause at ALL. There were no mood swings, no crying jags, nothing! It was wonderful! LOL Of course, there are risks to being on HRT too, so you have to talk that over with your doctor. But for me, it was worth it.

I've also been thru therapy thru the years, and that has helped me alot too. Personally, I think everyone should see a therapist at some time or another.

I know this is miserable --- menopause can be pretty awful for a lot of women. It's a shame that women have to go thru so much. I wish you the very best! Please take good care of yourself, and God bless. Hugs, Lee
Thanks for this!
