Hello everyone,

First the positive I just found this site and have to say it is the best ever so informative and well put bravo for who is responsible.  

Now the not so positive this premenopause is the worst thing ever.  I am a mom one child and I am 42 years old.  My monthly cycle had change somewhat the last two months and I stated feeling hot in my face but not sweating.  I started having anxiety and had some panic attacks.  I am feeling like sometimes I am distinct from myself.  I am a vegetarian, and usually do the natural thing herbs vitamins.  I was doing the st. Johns work but wasn’t really working I probably didn't give it enough time.  Since I lost some weight  five pounds she said please go on something for a little while so I get to take drug Lexapro hate it but it has only been a couple of days not sure when it will kick in even though I feel something.  

I have questions and I read there is a chat on this is it just Mondays?

How do you know if Estroven natural over the counter I bought some or maybe the progesterone natural cream which one to take, there isn’t really test for this she said?  

Would a gynecologist help me decide?

I have some vitamins and will take flaxseed oil.

I know everyone is different but how long it might take to get your levels up, and is it possible to feel normal again.  It comes and goes right.  

Any help would be great, suggestions, what works for some would be great to.

Hope all get better.

Hi dhope, my severe symptoms of meno started in the lst few months and i became desperate and started tryin otc prod and was thrilled to find a combo of phyto estrogen and progesterone. there r so many products out there. u have to study and get with your doc and see how u can fine tune the treatments to your body. the info on the transcripts site of powersurge have been such a blessing . There is a wealth of info on this site to read. It really helps to educate yourself with as much knowledge as possible. I am so new at this too and wow what a shock but i am learning more than i ever thought possible. and we try many things and see what works ---hopefully we can find the things that work personally for us sooner than later. I am here for u if u need to talk. I use the u2u messenger alot and chat and post and my e-mail is in my profile love you darling
