As menopause approaches, women often experience a number of physical and emotional symptoms including:
Irregular menstrual periods
Hot flashes and night sweats
Disturbed sleep patterns, insomnia
Anxiety
Significant mood changes
Depression
Dry skin
Irritability
Vaginal dryness and pain with sexual intercourse
Difficulty concentrating
Trouble remembering things
Diminished interest in sex
Frequent urination or leaking of urine
Headaches
Achy joints
Fatigue
Early morning awakening
However, it is still important that you see your doctor about this. Just because it can happen during menopause doesn't mean that it is caused by Menopause. So it's important to find out what's causing this sudden change.
