I have had absolute jerks for Drs lately - usually on the media bandwagon which is against doing anything for menopause and they are 'young' women - I have wished the worst menopause ever onto both of them - they had NO sympathy. I can understand when your periods are pure hell wanting them to end, fortunately mine were not like that. I attribute it to the 13 years of breastfeeding and not having periods while nursing.
I still had the moods during peri, and weird moods now -depression, no sex drive, lack of sleep, joint problems, anxiety attacks. I never had ANY of this before menopause and I hate it. I tried anti-depressants, I tried black cohosh for a long time and it did not help, also raspberry leaf tea.
I may go back and demand HRT of some type....

thanks for the venting...LOL
