shoot. i've been looking forward to menopause since my first cycle, when i realized, "omg, this is so gross". women ought to come with a switch, "not going to need this ~flip~".

Get zen with menopause, it's not a big deal, just a life phase. Women get power back at 55!

My Mom had a surgical menopause @ age 38 & I had a natural menopause @ age 38. So we were both very lucky. Hardly what i would call a negative.

Fascinating. How did you both have it that early?
