Hi, I was wondering if anyone had an answer. I have made an appointment but cant wait that long. I am 34 and have been on the pill since I was 18. My girlfiend said that when I am on my sugar pills or if I am late taking them it might be early menopause. I get waves of hot flashes, nausea and headaches when I am. Any suggestions?

HI! It sounds like a hormonal fluctuation for sure...but I'm no expert! It isn't necessarily menopause. On your sugar pills, you have your period, if memory serves me....my cycles got worse as I got older. Sweats, nausea, back pains, body aches, etc. I'm 38 now, and in perimenopuse, and don't have periods...but mine were awful after I turned 30. See your doc - and good luck!
