I don't think anything in particular is wrong with me especially as one of my sisters has this exact same issue. I was just wondering if other women have experienced this? I have yearly well-woman exams and pap smears every 3 years, though now my PCP will do the well woman/pap exam and I have no need of a gynecologist unless I have a concern. I did have a bit of low iron in my last bloodwork but wasn't anemic, just told to eat more leafy green vegetables.

I was talking to my mother yesterday...she told me she didn't fully go into menopause until last year! She is 59 years old! (I'm 40; she had me very young.) I have often heard whatever was the case for your mother is likely to be the case for you...just great! My mom seemed to have a very long perimenopause too; I need to ask her about it again.
