Perimenopause
Am I too young to be starting perimenopause. My mom and two of her sisters went through theirs early. And I'm about to be 31. I'm having so many symptoms. Hot and cold flashes. Smelling cigarette smoke and there isn't any. Brain fog at its worst. I need advice. Should I talk to my doctor about me possibly being in perimenopause?

It would definitely be young but I don’t think totally out of the question. You could get lab work done to check hormone levels and that would give you a better idea.
You might I know this sounds silly but have you done a pregnancy test
If you have adhd you can start perimenopause in your 30s.
I got hot flushes post partum, would randomly break out in an intense sweat. Hormones are going crazy at this time. Mine have settled but I still occasionally get them, just not as bad

Opinions?
Period due today but I have super irregular periods anyway, I’m on birth control and I get a period every two weeks so wondering if this could be positive due to hormones being out of whack

Period yet?..
I had my baby 31st May and breast fed for about 4-6 weeks. I havent had a period yet... is this normal? I thought it was but the Dr seemed suprised. I was getting hot flashes also which I thought was due to the hormone fluctuations of stopping breast feeding but now I'm starting to wonder if I'm menopausing or am I being dramatic. I spoke to a friend who gave birth 2 weeks before me and she's had 2 periods already... my neighbour said she gave birth and went straight into menopause.
For context I'm 40 and had a C section. My period was irregular before I got pregnant

GP rant
Does anyone else seem to have issues with GPs? Every time I go to the doctors I just feel fobbed off. I've been to different doctors, male and female, for different issues and just never seem to get anywhere. Its always chalked up to stress or essentially in my head without listening to what I'm saying. Thats the thing that stresses me out!! Today I was told that breastfeeding doesn't affect your estrogen or hormone levels... am I being stupid here?

Hot flashes!
I’m 5 months PP and I’ve recently been having hot flashes, like I’ll wake up in the night and feel like I’m burning up (and it’s not the hot weather lol) and also getting headaches daily- someone said it could be hormones as I’m EBF but just want to know if anyone has had similar symptoms?
