    Basically, if you are done having kids, then you’re like millions of other women going through menopause.

    I was 21 when I was diagnosed with POF – Premature Ovarian Failure (ran out of eggs). I remember at the age of 15 my periods started to get irregular (2 times a month or skip 2-3 months) and I was always hot (hot flashes).

    My sex drive has been low. I feel anxious all the time and we do use more lubrication when making love. I am 37 now and my ob/gyn still thinks I need Estrogen and I’ve been taking BC pill – Ortho Tri-cyclen for awhile now and probably will until I reach 45-50 years old.

    Not everyone has the same symptoms and you should discuss this with your ob/gyn.
