to NMP. There are many here who have found their anxiety more difficult to manage when these hormone changes kick in. You will find comfort and support here. Glad that you have found us.
I'm going through this myself at the moment but I'm managing to sort of cope. I sort of feel up n down from day to day!! I don't know why your doctor is
telling you you're too young? 48 is a pretty average age for the menopause. Also, blood tests aren't always accurate in predicting hormone levels. It's a shame you are feeling like this. Can you see another doctor at the practise?
