Hi,

I'm a bit confused.

I'm 46 and haven't had a period in over 2.5 years. I've also been blessed that aside from a very disturbing increase in facial hair, I haven't had a single menopausal symptom. No hot flashes, no night sweats, no major mood swings. My family Dr. thinks some of my psych meds may be protecting me from having symptoms. On my last pap test, she said she noticed vaginal dryness for the first time. That was this past summer.

So my question is, how do you know when you're done menopause? Is there some kind of blood test for hormones that they do?

Thanks everyone.
