HORMONES NORMAL?????? HELP!

by dvdsgirl817, Mar 19, 2009 06:22PM
I have ALL of the symptoms of perimenopause and the doctor did complete lab work and said that I am not in perimenopause and that all of my labs came back normal.  Then why am I having ALL of the symptoms??

While waiting for the results, the Dr. put me on a low dose HRT and I actually feel better!!!

Has this happened to anyone else?  I am only 38!!

I dont know what else could be wrong!

hi :) I had the same results 3 yrs ago when my periods decided to go out of whack! I began having very lengthy periods and heavy flooding that lasted up tp 3 weeks. Before that, my periods were always normal and on time.

I was given provera to stop the bleeding and it worked perfectly, as well as made me feel great mood-wise!

I have been tested in every way to rule out any conditions or problems that would cause my periods to be so heavy and last for so long. But nothing has resulted from them.

Now, I have spent over 3 yrs living with these messed up cycles that often leave me where I cannot leave my house. I have now began having frequent panic attacks as well as numerous other symptoms associated with perimenopause. Yet my dr just cannot believe this is what's causing it bc I am 'only 37 yrs old'.

It's so frustrating!
