Menopause |
Am I experiencing early onset menopause?06/25/2008 06:26PM |
HiI have noticed that my periods are becoming lighter and further apart. I have also noticed that the hair on my legs and bikini line which i previously (over 2 months now), has not been growing at the normal rate, in fact there are complete bald patches. I am very concerned and worried that I may be going through the early menopause.
I went to my G.P although they dismissed my concerns and undermined them, I feel due to their budgets, understandably! However this does not ease my anxiety. I am only 25 years old!
Please can you shed some light on the possibility of this? Or an alternative reason for these changes?
I anxiously anticipate a reply and would really really appreciate it.
Thank you very much.
You may need to see both a gynecologist and a dermatologist, the latter especially if you are developing bald patches on your head as well.
