Pre Menopause?
I hear a lot about Menopause, but not much about, Pre- Menopause.
I am 45 and still get my menstrel, but all the signs of Menopause.. Hot flashes too, aweful mood swings, memory loss a little.
I sure wish someone would make special hair and skin care products for women over, 35 to 50ish.
Including hair coloring products.
Any advice is welcome, tips, ideas, like that..
My hair is baby fine hair, silky texture, and thinning, will it grow back ?
It's so delicate and thinning, as I said, Help…..
Thanks,"fellow" women..

The troubles that come with menopause are only partially hormonal, most of them are mental, made better or worse by how you actually feel about all of it. The best person to see about the physical symptoms would be your GYN. They don't go in much for the replacement hormone therapy anymore, at least not for more than around 6 months or so, but at least after a good exam the doctor can give you some answers about what's going on in the body. So far as your appearance goes, go see a makeup consultant. Mary Kay, Merle Norman, Estee Lauder, and the like all have products designed for us mature ladies and the representatives are usually really good at helping you find things that will help you present the best you possible. I personally don't do the hair coloring bit, because I happen to feel pretty proud of my silvery highlights. When they first started showing up, I was in my 30's, and my daughter was just 4. One morning when I wasn't feeling particularly beautiful myself and discussing possible hair color changes with my husband, she piped up wanting to know if the beautician could give her "sparklies" in her hair too. Turned out those "sparklies" she was so desperate for were my gray hairs! Ever since then, I've enjoyed my sparklies and felt no need to lose them. For one thing, they are badges of age and experience, and I really do enjoy the freedom of being older, wiser and finally comfortable in my own skin. All that aside, if you want to play with a new color or style, go find a good beautician. Shoot, treat yourself to the whole day spa treatment and come out feeling like a new you. A good beautician can do wonders with a new cut, color and style, all designed to work with the hair you have. There are some products for thinning hair in women, you can buy them at the grocery or pharmacy most places, Rogaine for Women. I don't know how well it works, since I don't have that trouble, but I suppose it must help or it wouldn't be so popular.
I've read that upping the intake of soy products helps combat the hormonal troubles menopause brings, but I really think that most of it is just adjusting your way of thinking of yourself. While I recognize and admit I'm no spring chicken, I certainly am not my mother or grandmother, and I'm no where near ready for the pasture. Being older means I no longer have to tolerate the idiots in life, no longer have to wait until I "grow up", and no longer have to worry about having the "latest" of anything unless I want it Menopause just means I don't have to be concerned with the "monthly visitor" now, or the failure of my visitor to show up for that matter. No more zits at the wrong moment, no more cramps, no more bloated feeling. And the downside to all this is what , exactly? Don't ask me, I haven't found it yet.
So you aren't 20ish anymore. So what. Go find a good makeup consultant, a good beautician, and a good day spa. Invest a day in discovering the new, more mature you, and then revel in the discovery. If the thin hair bugs you, check out the wigs. Wigs are definitely not your grandmothers rat anymore- and there are even hair extensions that can be added to your own head. So go check out all the options out there. Theres plenty of things for our age group, it's just not as loudly proclaimed as the stuff for the young. Just think of yourself as classic and cultured, rather than young and flashy. Flash only lasts for this season, classic is forever. Look forward, not backward, and treat yourself the way you deserve to be treated. Menopause isn't the end, it's just another kind of beginning.
