UGH!!! Dealing with Menopause at 35

Since I did get a full hysterectomy, my doctor had warned me that I would be going through menopause soon after. I wasn’t sure how soon after, but in the last couple of weeks I have been experiencing mood swings. And in the last two days, I started getting “hot flashes”. For those of you who don’t know what menopause is here’s a definition from the Mayo Clinic.

I have to admit that on top of everything else I’m dealing with, I have to also deal with this…It’s a bit of a struggle. My oncologist can’t even prescribe estrogen to help me relive some of my symptoms. He says that giving me estrogen, even natural estrogen, will feed the cancer. So I will have to be dealing with this with no help!

Hopefully meditating will help…Does Anyone have suggestions on how to cope?

  1. Aww babe .. I would recommend yoga and meditation. It will help with balance of what your feeling and going through., :) xoxoxo coco

  2. I was in the same boat, even the same age last year. Hang in there – it didn’t last long for me and hopefully that will be the case for you. Wearing layers helped for me. Take care!
