Is it unheard of for a 26-year-old woman to enter menopause?!
Question: Is it unheard of for a 26-year-old woman to enter menopause!?
Before I say anything else, I'd like to say that I AM going to a gynecologist next week so I can make sure that I'm not dying or anything!. But right now I'm just curious!.
I haven't had a period since November!. At first, I thought it was because I have gained 60 pounds in the last year and my body freaked out about it!. But I've lost about half of that now, and so I'd think that my body would be all "okay, she's not gigantic anymore, she can have her period back!."
I've also been having some weird hormonal changes, like facial hair (not like a beard or anything, shut up) and hot flashes and my skin has gotten really bad after years of being pretty clear!. Also, my mom went through menopause at 35!. !. !.I don't know if that kind of thing could be genetic, but there you are!. Has anyone else ever experienced this!? What did it turn out to be!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

It's possible to go through early menopause, but it's very unlikely!. It sounds like you could have poly cystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)!. PCOS can cause you to gain weight, miss periods, grow facial hair, and have bad skin!. It sounds to me like you could definitely have this condition!. Your doctor may want to send you for an ultrasound to see if you do have PCOS!. Good luck! I hope this helps!Www@Answer-Health@Com
It is unlikely that you are experiencing menopause!. However, it does sound as if there is a hormonal imbalance!.
Why not try adding soy to your diet!? I'm in my early 40s and in my late 30s, I began experiencing menopausal symptoms!. Once I added soy to my diet, the symptoms dissipated!.
Good luck and I wish you well!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I've never experienced it, but it sounds like your hormones are definitely out of wack!. You've got a serious drop in estrogen and need hormone treatments!. It will be ok, so don't worry!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
