I am 48 years old and continue to have monthly cycles very painful ones, I might add.

Is getting dry during sex with my husband another sign of perimenopause?10.03.11

Question by justlookin4friendsonly: Is getting dry during sex with my husband another sign of perimenopause?
I’ve had other signs of perimenopause, I’m 36, he’s 41. It got SOOO painful it hurt him, then me! I need to go to my midwife soon. I’ve also been experiencing symptoms of pregnancy.
Is there ANYTHING my midwife can prescribe for the dryness?

It’s affecting my relationship, we hardly have sex anymore & my husband said he’s losing interest & I feel guilty, though I know I can’t control it, I know it’s affecting both of us.

Answer by fyre girl
I would definitely approach your midwife about the possibility of pregnancy. I don’t think that getting dry is a sign of menopause. I mean, there are teenagers out there that get dry all the time. There are also MANY women of the ages 18-45 that get dry while having sex. I would suggest some lube or something to help with the dryness. I hope that helps you out.

How to gain energy to exercise during perimenopause?10.02.11

Question by casper: How to gain energy to exercise during perimenopause?
I am 31 and have been going thru perimenopause for going on 4 years. I know the way to keep from gaining weight is thru exercise. I use to be able to exercise fairly regularly. Now I have a really hard time getting the energy to do it. Is there any way to help get more energy?

Best answer:

Answer by Blue
Be sure to get enough sleep. Eat a healthy diet. Try to stay away from caffiene and sugar. These will give you a rush of energy, but then you’ll feel more tired once the effects wear off. And, exercise will give you more energy, if you can force yourself to do it. Try telling yourself that you’ll do just 10 minutes. Once you start, you’ll likely end up doing more than that and feel better.

Question by ver_jen: What are the things you have exprienced during menopause?
I am looking for personal experiences with Menopause. The reason is the websites can give you a clinical explanation but experience is always better than what can be read in a book. Please if you are willing, share your personal experiences with menopause with me. I think mine may have begun. Yikes!
