World Menopause Day.
As a woman over the age of thirty-five, are you feeling like there is something wrong? With your health. But you cannot put your finger on it.
Over the last few weeks/ months have you been feeling extremely fatigued. You go into a room to collect something and once in the room you have forgotten what you went in for. Your family are teasing you because of this.
Are you suffering from Brain Fog, Feeling Cold, Mood Changes, Pins and Needles, Achy Joints, Fatigue, Lethargic, and you are suffering from Irregular Periods that can be extremely painful. The pain is immense and unbearable. Some women might have poor sleep patterns which makes them irritable during the day.
Most women do not realise that they could be suffering from Perimenopause this comes like a slow burn. Which slowly irrupts and you go to the Doctors, and they put your symptoms down to other things. But these issues are not resolved.
As time goes on you get increased symptoms. However, no one mentions Perimenopause or even Menopause too you. As you may not have Hot Flashes or Night Sweats at this time, it may not occur to you that is what is wrong with you. For most this subject is taboo. But it should not be!
All Women will go through this, for some, it may be under forty. Others mid-forties or later. Not only do Women suffer but so do their partners and family. This can have a devastating effect on everyone.
We all need to speak with our GP’s, but this is easier said that done. As the NHS is at breaking point. We need to get help and understanding off our symptoms at this point if we had Private Medical Insurance, we could get help extremely fast. We could get the diagnoses faster.
If you are heading towards your 40’s please consider Private Medical Insurance if you would like to speak with us at Medic Healthcare about this.
