Perimenopause & Long / Irregular Periods

**GrMom** · 09-03-2009 09:28 AM

I am 52 & always had regular periods but w/very bad cramps. Since the beginning of this yr, had long periods sometimes for a month then it would stop & return 10 days later for another 10 days. Two weeks later 15 days period. Crampy but not as bad as when younger. This really sucks, PERIODS PLEASE GO AWAY! CMON MENOPAUSE! I cannot wait for this to be over.

Saw GP, Pap normal TV & Pelvic US showed fibroids, referred to Gyno waiting for results of biopsy. Hope results will be okay. If you are in your 50s & having irregular, long periods please be sure to have it checked out by an MD!

Crazies/hyper - let's not even go there!

Oh and forgetful? ... Where was I?

I am 52 started having heavy periods last September including a lot of blooed whe I went to the toilet, obviously I thought this was in my urine and I was referred to Eurology had lots of tests all clear, they sent me to gynaecology and had biopsies they were fine, however
they also fitted the Mirena Coil to help to ease the periods, I tried this for 5 months yes I had less bleeding for four months but it was every single day, dishcarge and bleeding then this last three weeks I have been bleeding so went to the doctors yesterday to havce the Mirena coil out and try to assess myself again still bleeding heavily, been to chemist and bought some Black Cohosh. I am glad I have had teh cil out but not sure where I am heading now. My main worry is going back to work again on Monday and just hoping I will be able to stay there, I find it very hard to get through the day when I am bleeding heavily. Does anyone else go to work with this awful menopause? Do you just put up with it? Thanks

Are all the terms surrounding lace wigs confusing you? As a first time buyer the idea of a lace wig may be exciting yet confusing all at the same time. With terms such as full lace wigs, monofilament lace wig caps, ear to ear stretch lace, and vapon glue, it is very easy to get lost in the mix. If you are searching for not just answers but definitions, this simple guide will explain the essential lace wig terms for beginners.

Lace Wig

A lace wig is the general term for any wig that includes lace. Lace is installed for a natural hair appearance around the hairline or throughout the scalp. Lace types and benefits vary greatly. Lace wigs have long been used in Hollywood and in the hair industry. More recently, lace wigs have made their way to the consumer market for anyone to use.

Lace Front Wig

A lace front wig is a normal wig that contains lace within the first few inches of the hairline for a natural appearance. Some lace front wigs include lace near the hairline as well as near the nape of the neck. A traditional lace front wig solely has lace in the front. Discounted prices and synthetic hair is popular with lace front wig makers.

Lace frontal

A lace frontal is very different from a lace front wig yet many people are confused between these two terms. A lace frontal is not a full wig. A lace frontal is a partial unit that begins at the hairline and continues three to five inches back before the crown of the head.

A lace frontal has many applications. For women who have suffered from hair damage, receding hairlines or alopecia, lace frontals aid in natural and fuller hair. Since most damage is incurred in the first few inches of the hairline, lace frontal cover this damage. Also, many women who simply want a natural hairline for hair extensions or weaves install lace frontals.
