I can't wait for menopause at this point.

@blackdiamonds Mine started when I was 45, period stopped and the menpause symptoms were so mild. I'm 50 now, they're still mild. That's what I am hoping for you.

@minxy Menopause is when the body will give you real problems. Increased risk of stroke, heart attack, bone loss, and dementia, due to an oestrogen-deficiency state. There's oestrogen receptor cells in EVERY part of the female body, and without oestrogen, the body cannot function normally. That's why problems can arise not just in the female areas of the body but in the eyes, heart, brain, bones etc.It's the same if someone is insulin deficient or thyroid hormone deficient. The body will have a host of health issues. HRT can reduce symptoms to some degree, and also protect against dementia, bone loss etc, the main diseases of menopause, if taken when under sixty years old. There is a slight increase in breast cancer risk, but it is outweighed by the benefits of taking HRT if under sixty. Be careful about having no symptoms in menopause and not taking HRT, because if no symptoms, because you still will be at risk of the three diseases of menopause, which I've mentioned. Please watch Menopause Taylor on YouTube. She's an expert gynaecologist and has hundreds of videos on menopause and how to manage it for the individual woman as not all women can take HRT for various reasons. Menopause is for the rest of your life. In olden days, women didn't survive to menopause, so it wasn't an issue, as you were supposed to be dead as have no eggs left.
