Is your brain lighting up with questions? Pregnancy vs Peri-Menopause. Some people may be like… can’t you recognize the signs of pregnancy versus peri-menopause? Well… for some, no they can’t especially if you’ve been told by a doctor that you’ve started the peri-menopause state.
Maybe you lessened your weight on birth control and drew back from it. Becoming a free bird so to speak. Or hell, maybe you are using protection and something went wrong.
Let me know if this sounds familiar…
- Loss of Period
- Breast Swelling and Pain
- Weight Gain
- Mood Swings
What would you say if I told you that was menopause?
- Hot Flashes or Night Sweats
- Fatigue or Trouble Sleeping
- Changes in your desire for sex
- Bloating and Cramping
What would you say if I told you that was pregnancy?
Oh, and did I mention that changing the labels would still apply? The first group applies to both pregnancy and menopause as does group two.
Look the same, doesn’t it?
So what tips can you apply if you determine that you have perimenopause?
- 1. Stay the course with birth control or means of protection if you do not wish to have a baby.
- 2. Trust your gut, if you think this feels too much like pregnancy use tests from the dollar store.
- 3. Read and keep your mind open to things that might happen especially since you might feel like you are pregnant since day one.
