BC survivor in medical menopause

Hi, I am 34 & recently finished breast cancer treatment and now I’m on maintenance & targeted therapy 💕✨

Am currently in a medical menopause - having monthly zoladex injection & daily exemestane (which works similarly to tamoxifen for those in the know).

Hoping to connect with other medical menopause/ post chemo mums who have gone on to conceive naturally after coming off the medication. I’m yet to find anyone with this experience.

The hope is that in 2-5 yrs time I can come back out of menopause to conceive but I’m yet to meet anyone who’s done it.

Also - can we talk about how brutal medical menopause is especially as we can’t do anything to make it any easier like HRT. It’s a bit like jumping off a cliff hormonally isn’t it?

Thanks for listening to my Ted talk 😂💕

Period late

Could I be going through menopause at 26? I missed a period 2 months ago then had one the next month this month no period yet just feeling crampy and like my periods going to come but nothing yet, sleepy as Heck! Sore breast I took a test but was negative then a couple of days later I wound up spotting for a little then it stopped thought it was my period but nothing do you guys think it’s pregnancy or menopause my hormones have been sooooo off since my 2nd daughter which was a year and a half ago they never went back normal
