Anyone else feeling like they are past their prime and just don’t matter anymore? Like I could vanish and it may take weeks before anyone realized I was missing (and yes, I realize hormones are making this happen),

I’m in a rather peculiar situation. I have been in the HR field going on 4 years, I have over 11 years of management experience, I got my PHR last year and I recently graduated with my MBA with a concentration in HR this month. I am ready for a more challenging role. However, there doesn’t seem to be much available at my current company. However, I am going on 5 months pregnant with the expectation of being out in October. I feel like once I mentioned my pregnancy I was in a holding pattern.

How many days does it take to get into ketosis? Does anyone use the pee strips to test?

How many ppl are doing offshore handoff calls on a daily basis including Sunday night for half and hr to 1hr+?? Not feeling like a sustainable routine. It’s been cutting into my sleep

I’ve had issues since high school, but just formally got diagnosed with ADHD. I’ve always managed to get by okay at work (I’m no super star), but remote meetings have been really difficult for me and I now feel like I’m barely hanging on. Trying meds now, but no benefits yet. Pros and Cons of disclosing the diagnosis to my team, partner, or firm? I’m torn.

Starting an IVF cycle shortly; and feeling very anxious. My period, which is usually within 25-28 days hasn’t started yet. It is 14 days late (and no, I am not pregnant :). My doctor had me patching 4 estrogen patches everyday for 10 days.
Has anyone else gone through this? Delayed period because of IVF stress? Or delayed period because of estrogen patches?
I don’t know what to make of all of this. Any help/ guidance would be great!

Hi all,

Anyone able to share experiences delivering at 34 weeks? Our twins are coming Monday at 34 weeks due to preeclampsia. Scans have all been good but curious about others’ experiences.

Any women here with lean PCOS? I do not ovulate on my own (metformin regulated my periods but I still don’t ovulate) and am moving from three cycles of Clomid/IUI to IVF soon. No other issues have been found other than my PCOS (HSG shows tubes open). Curious about your experiences. And the reason I mentioned lean PCOS is because it seems for others with PCOS part of the fertility path is diet/exercise/weight loss but I am already very tiny.

I feel like my life has been stagnant for about 2 years. I have the same ‘meh’ day over and over again at work. Overall have every symptom of ‘burnout’. Outside of work I mainly lie around and watch tv. Only time I have a lot of energy is when I was on a beach vacation or when I drink a TON of coffee. I get big ideas about doing the things I enjoy outside of work but never do them. Dating life is nonexistent. I kinda think I’m depressed, but don’t want to go on meds. Any advice?

So when I was young, I laughed so hard at a joke and accidentally stabbed myself with a mechanical pencil to my forehead. I freaked out and pulled the lead out of it but a little bit of the lead was left. I can still see it 13 years later. Can’t sleep so I thought of that and was wondering, will it have any consequences in the future?

Has anyone had a D&E? 21 weeks pregnant and after meeting with several specialists the verdict is that we need to terminate for medical reasons 😞. Aside from the obvious emotional devastation, I am trying to figure out what to expect physically?

Hi new here. Idk what my value is and if I’m getting paid an amount that reflects my hard work. I am a paralegal for a small law firm (family and immigration) w only 1 attorney. I have about 20 files or more in my rotation at a time. I work on various types of cases at once. Some are simple, others are extensive. I feel like it’s very unstructured and one of the managers micromanages. It’s like every man for himself. Take home pay is $50k. I am working on my bachelors deg. Do I get paid enough?

It’s Thursday, I’m sleep deprived and I feel dead, even after a large cup of coffee. I just want to shut down my laptop, curl up, take a nap and wake up on Monday. Does anyone else feel like this? How do you get out of the slump?

Anyone hav solutions for peri-menopause induced hair thinning? My gosh my hair volume must be 1/3 less than it was 15 years ago! 😢

My company did a session last week about why menopause is everyone’s business. They shared a bunch of resources afterwards so thought I’d share here, see comments.

Seems like the hot flashes just started getting really frequent and I haven’t slept well for weeks. Does anyone know how long this typically lasts, and do I really need to go to a doc for meds? I just finished cancer treatments a few months ago and completely over going to the doc. I’d much prefer to try supplements first. Right now it’s black cohosh, I’ll up the dose a bit see if that works

I figure if anyone can understand this, it’s you all. I feel like I’m losing my damn mind. I have always loved communications, and I’m really good at it. But lately I’m so tired of politics and toxicity that I it’s sent me into a depression tailspin, on top of a pretty severe mid-life crisis. Two and a half weeks ago, I quit my job with nothing lined up. Not the smartest thing I’ve ever done, but I kind of feel like self-preservation was at work here. I want to do work that makes a difference. ☹️

Anyone ever take a biotin or hair supplement to combat thinning hair. Would love ideas.

My spouse is in better shape and is healthier than me. Can anyone relate? Does this bother anyone? I’ve tried so hard to look better but my emotional toll is working overtime. I weigh more than my husband by 10 lbs.

Welcome to the menopause bowl! This is a supportive place to discuss all facets of menopause as well as HRT. Whether you are in the pre / post or in-between stages, this is the right place for you!

Anyone remember that “Friday I’m in love” song?
This is my rendition:

Thursday is for hot flashes
It’s Friday I am drunk!
😂 Delirium is all I can say at 1:37 AM

Has anyone here experienced new or worsening anxiety as a result of hormonal changes? I’m having more general anxiety, but also terrible rebound anxiety from alcohol as I get older.

I’m 46, entering perimenopause and know very few women who’ve reached this stage via age rather than as the result of surgery. What are the symptoms you’ve experienced? My male GP seems pretty clueless. For me: shorter and heavier cycles, plus worsening cramps.

Hi ladies, I'm in my mid 40s and I think I'm entering peri. I currently have a Mirena but I should replace it again soon, but one more will put me into my 50s(!!) and I was wondering if anyone here knows that they're in peri or menopause without having periods. Is there blood work or something to check? I definitely do not want to have another child accidentally. I've got 5 more years until my youngest is in college and don't want to start over again.

Does anyone have any helpful tips for brain fog? I’ve been working in full time in special education for several years while finishing my bachelors degree in psychology with a concentration in behavior. Originally, I was going to get my certification/license in sped, but now with the this brain fog I’m nervous about pursuing this.. any suggestions or tips?
