Experiences menopause at a young age?

[Anonymous]

Because of health issues I'm seriously considering getting a hysterectomy. One of the very big downsides would be that I'll enter menopause early; before I'm even in my 30s. I really like to hear about your experiences, since I just don't know what to do anymore.

P. S. I don't want kids, that's why I didn't list that as another major downside

My own Mom had problems and Needed something to Help ease her Pain which with a 'Hysterectomy'... No Gain.
You probably will go Through the Same Signs but because you are Still very young, it may Not be this Bad.
I am so Sorry for your own Pain, hun. Talk to the doctor if you Begin anything that will Cause you to Feel... Not You.
Good luck. xx

may i ask what the issue is? i have health issues too, and was told i needed surgery. however, i found a way to work it out. perhaps i could help.

I was the one who asked if the surgery would be possible ;), I've tried many things my gynaecologist suggested. I'm on my period for almost 4 consecutive months right now, while having an implant. I'm on hormonal medication for 6 weeks, but since that also isn't helping I'm considering the surgery once again.

i see. it sounds like it might be fibromyalgia or something. i have endometriosis, so i bleed a lot to at random times. i have found that with changing my diet and taking progesterone cream, it really helps me to live a normal life. just one thing you need to know for sure if you are bleeding a lot like that. never, ever, eat soy. it acts like estrogen and will make your situation 10 times worse. i learned this from the doctor.

Thank you for all the info, I'll definitely discuss it with my gynaecologist.

well, good luck to you. hopefully, you won't need the hysterectomy.

Menopause comes with weakening bones, eventually it becomes osteoporosis, (this is why old ladies break their hips so easily). I'm sure there are other health considerations as well so talk to a few doctors about this (don't tell each doctor what the others said so you get completely independent advice).

Thank you for the tips

What's wrong with entering menopause early? You don't get periods anymore and therefore don't have to use birth control. Doesn't sound that bad to me.
