The last year of my perimenopause was the worst time of my life. High levels of anxiety, breast pain, heavy periods, mood changes and don't forget shortness of breath. That is a big one!! I l literally convinced myself that i was always on the verge of a heart attack or stroke due to the heart palps and difficulty breathing. Ladies, vitamin D and probotics were a huge help during this time, also vitamin B12. I am now in menopause and the symptoms are not that bad , but the last year was horrible. Good luck ladies, stay strong, you've got this!

I went through perimenopause for nine years. I’m 56 years old and am now four years post menopausal. Perimenopause was the hardest for me. Broken sleep, hot flashes, heart palpitations, achy joints, etc. I’m now on the other side, and my sleep is still not solid. I don’t drink alcohol, and I watch all my carbs including no sugar. I’m definitely stiffer than I used to be. Estrogen was our lubrication, and now we make less of it. For some reason I still wake up at least once in the night very warm.

Eat organic plant vegan, raw till 4, lots of vegan smoothies and real morning sun, no sunscreen. Stay away from anything chemical. Wear a hat instead. Laugh and dance. Nothing healthy about grass fed animals. They all still got vaccines full of VIRUSSES and antibiotics, female hormones and preservatives. Then you eat and store them. Gressfed is labeled after the animal got one week grass!!!! Wake up. Grass fed also means cutting down rainforest in Brazil and other countrys, importing your dead animal parts in who knows what condition, sprayed with who knows what and stealing your and my oxygyn. We're running out. Just so you can eat dead diseased making you sick animal parts. Polluting every lake, ocean and killing the bees and birds. If you want to get sick from any Virus, including the Corona virus keep eating the sticky animal fats with parasites that host VIRUSSES.

Thank you so much for having Anna come on to your channel. This is kind of emotional to watch because I am 36 and I have been diagnosed with premenopause after thinking I was pregnant for the first time. It is hard and I have no one to talk to or ask questions because even my doctor seems confused by it. I am so happy to see they are people like Anna.

Thank you so much for doing this segment, at 45 I have lots of questions!! LOTS! I also have PCOS and it is hindering my ability to loose weight, I have just learned "to live with it" until recently, so getting my hormones back inbalance has been a huge focus of mine and it seems like not a moment too soon after watching this. When I started my journey into a healthy life style change I found you when working on my emotional eating. I have a really good handle on that now, I have cut out added sugar from my diet, and I am enjoying foods that I never EVER thought I would want to eat. I belong to a few PCOS support groups and a common theme I hear women say is I fell off my diet and gained all the weight I lost plus more ( I have done that so many times in the past too) Or I hear them say they get upset and go on a eating binge or they cant control their sugar cravings.I always refer them back to your site, because I know until you fix the emotional eating and change the "diet" into a life style change that roller coaster will never stop. You have helped me so much in my journey and I hope the ladies I tell to check out your videos and website can walk away with the same story I have. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I have heard online the supplementing with niacin improves sex drive. I started taking it and it did work but I had overdosed and stopped because the itching was insane. There are many people who have success we are all our own chemistry project.

All of these symptoms began end of 2018 at age 43 years old, it started with my periods slightly changing length of days + time it would come. Next in 2019 age 44 years old were the terrible aches and pains all over, insomnia and night sweats. The weight gain began before 40, but suddenly some weight loss mid 2019. I tried keto for 3 months and lost weight, almost like resetting my metabolism , much of the pain went away. Unfortunately I developed pcos and adenomyosis (reproductive issues) both incurable. The pcos caused multiple cysts and one on an ovary had ruptured. All of this is hormone driven. My obgyn didn't and still doesn't want to do anything, but sit and wait. In the meantime my primary sent me for a mammogram and I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Hormone receptor positive 95% estrogen influenced. This is nuts. I encourage all to do whatever it takes to balance your hormones and if your current doctor is of no help, please find someone that you're happy with. Take care.

Were you eating eggs, dairy and meat on Keto? I ask because I did that and developed severe menstrual cramps. Got pelvic ultrasound and it found that I have a uterine polyp and 4 ovarian cysts. I believe all that animal estrogen and high fat approach caused this. I now follow Dr. Neil Barndard's advice. 🙂

I'm taking Transition.. it's all natural. I think I'm doing better. I mean I'm not annoyed by my husband eating doritos but I did tell off a few people recently. Very calm and collectively, but I had absolutely no filter. My husband is either laughing at me or frightened. I'm really goin through a crazy menopause.. I'm 49. In some ways I do like that I don't care about hurting people's feelings who manipulate me to do what they want me to do ...that's something I kinda like ...🤭

thank you ladies, Drs., this was very informative and helpful! I had no idea that perimenopause caused anxiety and I've been suffering with it from mid-40's to now 51, I believe I'm still in the peri stage and good to know about the alcohol! thank you thank you.

Really interesting, and so well done Dani. Been watching you for a while and this popped up on my stream, and being nearly 50 is very relevant. Great video, you asked all the right things in an intelligent and professional way. Thank you both.

I found Harmony Menopause tablets recently, stopped the waking up hot 🔥 in the night after a week. If I'm getting a good sleep then the anxiety and emotional stuff is easy. However my pms is horrible but short lived luckily. Everything started in September. I do dumbbells and yoga and when I can, swim, so a lot of the time I actually feel awesome and I'm excited for this era in my life. Your body is awesome you can get through this.

Wow, what an incredibly informative blog. Thank you for explaining everything so simply and beautifully in a way that is easy to understand. 🌸

👏👏👏👏👏 Excellent educational video. Thank you Dani for bringing Dr. Anna to the clean and delicious community. She has shared so much useful information, and reassurance that we are not going crazy, but just through a natural aging process, and that there is lots we can do.

Wow I’m so glad I found this interview. My family’s been in COVID-19 self isolation for the last 3 weeks. Two of those, I’ve been experiencing nearly all of the symptoms explained here. Ramping up of hot flushes, night sweats, irritability, anxiety, mild incontinence, chronic hair loss and fatigue. Some of these symptoms have only just started and some are chronic but possibly confused with WLS. But most of these symptoms I’m now experiencing. Imagine starting hot flushes for the first time within the COVID-19 disaster, it’s so confusing! I knew I was peri menopausal, but it’s getting worse, and suddenly. And I have no family history of menopause, both my mother and Grandmother passed away young, and I have one sister who was born with special needs and has never experienced periods. I’m left a bit lost for experience. I’ve joined the Facebook group, and now might do some research into this phase of life that seems to have struck me hard. Desperate for a natural solution. As far as calorie count, I had a gastric bypass 14 months ago so my calorie count is limited regardless. I’ve also lost 63kg, so I’m in a far better place to be dealing with this phase. Thanks very much for the information, it’s been very helpful. Open to any recommendations proven effective. Kind regards, Annette from South Australia

Hi Annette...stress can do all of the things you mentioned as well (except incontinence) so there may be an aspect of that at play...especially with the whole COVID situation. Extreme self-care is called for now...even though it can be hard with quarantine.

I am 36. I've been going through Perimenapause since my late 20. I'm at a point now where my cycle is just 3 days and lighter. I used to cramp bad and have heavy periods along with night sweats. Before anxiety/panic attacks were sporatic now it's happening often. I've had hot flashes since 25 and night sweats along dizzy spells. 36 years old and sex drive, energy level, and weight is very low. I'm cold all the time. I have a cycle that comes every 2 weeks and sometimes spotting in between. Recently I've noticed a thicker discharge light yellow all the time. Well guess I have a lot more to look forward to. Hopefully by 40 this will stop.....smh this has ruined a marriage and relationships because it's hard to explain and I get no breaks.

I started experiencing ALL the symptoms of menopause after my Uterine Fibroid Embolization procedure a couple months ago. I requested a blood work by my Primary Doctor to figure out what is going on with my body, but the tests came back normal (FSH & LH) 😭. I’m miserable and feel so alone and misunderstood...so I’m glad I came found this page for the support. In the meantime, I was prescribed anti-depressants until me and my doctor can figure out a plan of action. I’m definitely going to try that progesterone cream.

Hi I'm 49 perimenopausal, suffering allergic rhinitis, my rhinitis worse, i have breathing problem, i felt i have asthma, I'm always crying i felt I'm dying. My symptoms started January14,2020. I'm always research what i need to do, what i need to eat and supplements i need to take. First time i experienced symptoms, i thought i have severe illness and I'm dying. 😷🤒🤕😭😭😭😭😭 Until now I'm searching how to lessen my palpitations, anxiety, sleep problem, shortness of breath, Tingling, dizziness, feeling vomiting, fatigue. Doctor here in the Philippines cannot help me, they always told me to help my self. That's why I'm here. I need help, thanks in this video.

I have been following only some of the suggestions from Dr. Anna and I sleep better and have lost 3 pounds. Thank you so much. 🥰

Your face when she said your fat migrates from your butt up to your waist! I am laughing so hard! 😂😂😂😂

Would have been wonderful if someone would have told me about perimenopause when I was 42, and it would have been even nicer if my doctor listened to me when I said I didn’t feel good. I’m changing my doctor I’m mad

Very informative i love it, thank you!

Cruciferous vegetables and high fiber diets trigger endometriosis pain. I'm currently trying to get a handle on perimenipause combined with endometriosis. I've seen 5 different doctors who have completely opposite approaches and it is extremely frustrating. There is clearly a bias in research against testosterone treatment in women and most research on endometriosis is associated with fertility. I've been struggling for more than 6 months and can barely do my job at this point between emotional rollercoaster, stress, and managing doctors appointments and self care. I've been told I don't need birth control and I need to have my tubes tied. I am so incredibly angry that this is so hard to navigate.

Burning tongue, food tasting wrong, severe intolerance to cold, sweat dripping off my hair while covered with goose bumps and shivering, these are a few of my unfavorite things.
