Hello everyone, haven't been on here for awhile! I am getting constant off and on nausea. It was usually just before my period, during or right after but now I experience it about once or twice a week. Does anyone else get this? Do you have other symptoms with it and what do you do about it? Is it just hormones? I am 48, have been on the natural progesterone cream off and on (I haven't been real good the last couple months taking it the way I should), and I also take a calcium/mag supplement before bedtime. Thanks so much.

Yes I have Lisa...just like morning sickness (not just that time of day) for a couple of months. Now I mainly get it before a hot flash. I'm 50. I've read eating ginger helps. I just ate ginger or digestive cookies!!! huh.gif

Me too. The same type of nausea I get before I start but now it's showing up randomly thru the month. I eat a lot of Gaviscon. I'm 46.

Boysmom...you must have it bad...that stuff is awful!

To me it's not as bad as some of the other stuff on the market.... and it works pretty well. I've had the acid reflux thing for about a year. Wierd because it's not the burning of indigestion, just feels like food & drink are "bubbling up" - bleh! The Gaviscon helps with that part but not to much when I get the nausea thing. I hate all of it!

I had "morning sickness" off and on throughout the day for the past three months; it has eased up. I am 59 and post meno by four years. I don't mind single symptoms lasting a while before the next one settles in; it's when I get two or more that drains me. Ahh................"this too shall pass." So I am told.

Okay - let's go for all 35 symptoms and get this entire episode over with!!! I wonder who would be left standing? Here's hoping we all feel a bit better soon.

You all are so wonderful! I thought I was dying....!! Anyways, something that I have done and I actually read it on here somewhere for the nausea, is drink a glass of lemon juice with cold water. It works within minutes.

Like, I've mentioned before I'm 41 weeks late... this weekend though , I've had those pelvic twinges, hot flushes with a vengeance, I've felt washed out and unclean (like I need a good scrub) just as if I was going to start my period. I also keep feeling nauseous. The old ovaries are certainly trying their hardest I think! blink.gif mad.gif

Sounds like one of those "phantom" periods.

When I have hot flashes, I know the period is way off in the distance. Having had a couple of years of long spaces between periods, it's clear to me that the hot flashes completely diminish before a period hits.

Actually PREFER hot flashes to the thought that I might not be done with this for GOOD!

(Sorry for yelling all the time. Peri really gets me riled up!)
