Thread: 22 and menopause hormaonal level

Hi everyone,

I am new to this site and thought I would try and find some ladies to talk to.
A little about myself.

I am 22 ( 23 In Oct), I am married and have 2 children. ( Aged 4 and 18 months.) I have had hormonal problems since I first started puberty. In 2004 I became pregnant with my first child and put on about 30 Kg during the pregnancy. In 2006 I was diagnosed with PCOS and was told I would never conceive children again naturally. I was put on Metformin and told to exercise. At the end of 2007 I became pregnant naturally. After the birth of my second child I went to my Gyno to see how the PCOS was going.

After a few visits and tests ect my husband and I decided not to have anymore children. I think my body has been through enough. I went to my GP to go on birth control. I have now been on 3 Different birth controls and I am also on a hormonal tablet to help lower my bleeding. I have had 3 blood tests to look at my hormonal levels. At the moment my hormonal levels are at post menopausal level and estrogen dominance. The only thing I find weird is I was bleeding so heavily (apparently a sign of menopause.) and for my last two cycles have been very light and this cycle has only lasted for 5 days, normally they go for 8-14 days.

The symptoms I am having are - Hair Loss, polycystic ovaries, mood swings, PMS, low sex drive, water retention, bloating and unexplained weight gain and hot flushes.

I have to visit my doctor in a months time for more blood tests and it these pills are not doing anything as usual I have to change pills again.

Thank you for reading. Hope to hear from someone.
