"Honey, what's for supper? "Anything you want to fix BUCKO...are we clear?"
I decided that since I was going through a change, everyone I live with should go through a change too. Unfortunately for them, they are all male.
Husband: "Make me a grocery list, Honey?" Me: I ripped off a piece of scrap paper, wrote the word "FOOD" on it, and handed it to him.
I am saving a LOT of breath these days.
Let's hear some more quotes Boomers!

Since I am new here at Boomers, I've been reading through some of the back posts. This discussion on menopause is hillarious.
I started going into menopause earlier I think...in my early 40's. Talk about something that I could do without! I haven't been the same since. Guess that's why they call it the CHANGE, huh? LOL
I got on HRT as soon as I could get my doc to prescribe them for me. I recently ran out of my prescription while in St. Croix and was off the treatment for about 2 months. I was thinking that surely I could stay off the meds now. Nuh uh. The hot flashes, the mood swings, the flowing of tears at the least little thing all started over again. Bottom line: I begged my doc for a new prescription when I got back to Nevada.
I don't think it ever ends. Somebody please tell me I am wrong on this.

Hi Kristie, welcome, I'm kinda new here too. I'm 48 and in perimenopause. OH JOY IT IS>>>>>ha ha. Besides going through a lot of other stuff in my life.. this just adds to it. I use the progesterone cream. I think it helps. I get hot and cold flashes, moodiness, etc etc... all the classic symptoms..Exercise really helps when I stick to it that is... I also wonder how long this will last...

mammajude, I have come to the conclusion that it lasts till you die and they bury you.

They were going to put me on a low dose pill but I have high cholesterol and they said it wouldn't mix with the Lipator I take. Figures... Kristie I certainly hope it won't last till we die.. ha ha. That would be awful. I hear from my older women friends that it will pass. Your right Dotsie you have to wait until a year passes without it. OH JOY> I'll probably be 60.. ha ha.

Dotsie, I found this link www.hormonehelpny.com/questions/hormone_074.htm Unfortunately, I went into menopause because of a hysterectomy 3 years ago. I have had symptoms ever since, so I would really love to know when it will end also. I hope this helps with answering your question. Cheers, Cathi
