Afternoon, Twters.

I'm sorry I've been so quiet - #Perimenopause migraines are getting real fucking boring now. The #ChronicPain in my legs is ramping up because some suits decided that being on Gabapentin long term isn't useful so I'm reducing and my pain is - shocked pikachu face - getting worse. Will need to chat to the GP about what we're going to replace it with because this is unsustainable.

Sorry - grumpy today.

And don't get me fucking STARTED on #Evri 's "next day delivery"...

😡

#PeriMenopause little siblings are welcome too!

I'm experiencing the first truly unhinged period of #perimenopause. Three days of spotting, then nothing for three days. Two days of spotting, then nothing for EIGHT days. Now it's started up again. WTF. 😡

It could just stop. Permanently. I wouldn't mind.

Any #perimenopause folks out there? I feel like I’m dying and losing my mind, and I think I need some connections and community to help me navigate this. I’d love to learn from others’ experiences and know I’m not alone (or if in fact I am just dying and losing my mind) 💜

Ridiculous #aging #middleaged #perimenopause experience today:

For my entire adult life I've had this one spot on my chin where a single dark, coarse hair will grow in from time to time. Not an uncommon experience; a lot of women have to pluck a few hairs here and there to maintain the illusion of smooth, perfect skin.

Discovered this morning that the hair had grown back, but now it's gone white -- and I only noticed it because I could feel it when touching my face, but couldn't easily see it any more against my pale skin.

So, my first white hair.... and it's on my chin.

I guess this is 40?

könnten sich bitte einfach mal alle zur #perimenopause weiterbilden, statt uns ständig zu verarschen, ich habe keine zeit für diese inkompetenz ey
im gesundheitssystem als cis frau unterwegs zu sein, bedeutet entweder deine symptome sind hormonbedingt wenn sie es eigentlich nicht sind und WENN sie es sind, kann das ja nicht sein, „weil sie sind ja noch so jung!” 🖕🏻#perimenopause
immer wieder toll, wenn du schon zur fachärztlichen sprechstunde gehst und dein arzt noch nicht mal das wort #perimenopause kennt (in einem fachbereich wo das absolut relevant ist, meine fresse). könnte schon wieder alles anzünden 🔥
