hi everyone. Im 41 just realised this is what im experiencing..thanks to all of you ladies.Just wondering though if these peri symptms should be in a patern as i thk mine are and then m thrown off wind.If hormones fluctuate and cause all these tremors anxiety meloncholy tears adrenaline rushes etc and the rest can they happen any time of the month or should i be able to notice a pattern At the mom im fine for bout 5/6 days after i ovulate an the rest is just abissmall.I woke up today feeling grrat sadness and i cant say thats depression as i have a great life i just cant pin point it and i look for reasons why im like this and cant snap out of it./Went to work and felt so close to tears all day then came the jitteriness anxiety and ran out in tears once id finished and still feel so sad in my eye area....why? I was always so happy and full of beans in fact hyper really but not now i feel so unsure of myself in all situations....so y question is agai can hormones fluctuate anytie or do they have a pattern if so im completely mashed.......

Hi

If any consolation to you,I thought mine had a pattern but nowadays there seems to be no rhyme nor reason to anything,these things just hijack my body without warning Tears doom/gloom thoughts,sinus,upset stomache,aches/pains, sore patches I could go on,but will save you the never ending list

I,m 43 and was a very happy go lucky person didn,t worry about much till a year ago.

All I can say is go to Dr get checked out if anything really bothering you,and then take it from there.

but I think you will find alot of us on here have no pattern to this and to try and "go " with it as much as possible (hard I know when you feel so rough)

hope you start to feel a little better soon

Take care of yourself

Hi

I'm sorry your feeling so bad. This hormone crap is like the roller coaster ride from H---. I have been tracking my symptoms for about a year now. There is definite pattern to when symptoms arise. I thought a chart might help you, so I've attached one for you to print out and see if it helps.

http://www.wiseessentials.com/free-hormone...chart.html...... this is the site the chart is on and the infor below is the chart itself. If you can't just click on the info to take you to the site, you may to cut and paste to the adress bar to get it to open. I hope it helps.

Your not alone in this, thankfully we can all come here to get help and give help to other women in the same boat we are floating in. I must say, whomever it was that said the 40's are the best time in your life, it had to be a man.

Hope you feel better

Hugs, Patty

I have been tracking my symptoms for over a year too and nothing seems to follow a pattern except that nothing follows a pattern.

I wish I could help you more, just know you are not alone.

Hi Laxgirl,

Sorry, wish I had better news but I can find NO pattern to all this chaos......although a famous scientist once said of Quantum Theory "There is order even in chaos".

Thats my mantra and I am sticking to it.....

Take good care babe......sorry, not much help

Hugs,

Michah

thanks to you all amd for the chart attachment.I just didnt want to go gps and have no pattern to it and have him throw me in the mad farm...... thanks

Dear 'Laxgirl'
Just like the Hormones themselves the symptoms will also often fluctuate.Some symptoms may be worse than others at different times during the cycle.In other words learn to expect the un-expected.
There really is no rhyme or reason .Probably the best thing to do is enjoy the really good days and cut yourself some slack when you feel bad.
No harm in getting a full check-up and include the Thyroid which can often play up around transition time.
My Menopause just seemed to happen with all the symptoms running together before I was diagnosed with Premature Ovarian Failure at age 39.And honestly it was just like having a nervous break-down.Things got better when I started HRT.
Wish you well
All the Best

not really but at least you'll start to recognize the symptoms for what they are and maybe not freak out as much ,, you'll go "oh yeah .. peri" ,, I had skipped for 3 months and was getting used to feeling pretty good .. then wham.. a period .. it wasnt horrible but I was disappointed .. then 14 days later awful symptoms like I havnt had in 4 or 5 months. . then another period 16 days from the last one .. and it was .. oh yeah ,, I remember now .. ug

Hi Laxgirl, I hope you are ok. Let me tell you something, at first there was a pattern like I start to get symptoms before my period for few days and than started to be a week before my period and than 2 weeks before my period or now the whole month is full of symptoms. Some months are better than other months. Like this cycle month was horrible the first few days of my period I got the brown discharge than heavy days for 3 days and that's all. I ovulated on the 9 day and hell from there. Now my symptoms before period, during period, during ovulation and than all thru my period begins. By the way my period is every 23 days. So as you could see no rest days....but some months I have some relief like a week in a month, and that's heaven....I feel horny, happy and everything is ok...on the bad month cycle....I feel unattractive, sad, anxious which is my major symptom, unbalance feeling when walking or exercising or I feel I am going to pass out or something, Feel like I am to get dizzy if I moved my head from right to left, bitchy, breast tender just not happy at all.....I hate this and now I am 46 started pre at age 40...with weird feeling and still on and off but I didn't accept it and always think something is wrong with me....

Hope that helps,

Sofia

Thanks that sunds just like me nd whats happening to myself.Many Thanks for sharing that...

The only pattern I've seen is that it's cyclic. One day you feel all right, the next day it's all downhill. The cycle lengths keep changing too, so you can't anticipate when you're going to have a good day or a lousy day.
