I have started to have what's called "peri-menopause" about seven or eight months ago. It's what they call it before you go into full menopause. I'm 48 so it's the time.

I get these horrible hot flases, and feel so weird at times, I don't even know how to describe it. I don't want to take hormones, but if it continues to get worse I don't know if I can handle it. I get so irritable, depressed, and feel like I am not on this planet.

I know this isn't a guy subject, but I hope you mind me talking about it here.
