Hello!

I save my PCP today. After years of peri symptoms that everyone ignored, I was told my FSH is 55, solidly in the post-menopausal zone.

I am not sure how I feel. On one hand, relieved that I knew that I was having hormonal changes and am not crazy. I am frustrated that 4, yes, 4 other PCPs blew it off over the last few years. 45 seems young, which makes me afraid of possible long-term consequences.

And, now I don’t know what to do or what to expect. My now PCP says I don’t need to do anything. Yet, am I through the worst, or am I only just begun the “fun”? And, I thought FSH was a terrible measure? Or is that just during Peri?

Any thoughts on this would be welcome!
