Hello, I'm 42. I have the contraceptive implant. My last period was 2 weeks ago, it was awful, really really heavy with a lot of large clots (sorry) and then after a week, just a lot of brown discharge which still meant I had to wear protection, still going on except now it has turned back into a full blown bright red period again.
I am itching intensely on my face, shoulders, head, neck and lower legs and feet. I'm not sleeping well. I'm permanently tired and can barely drag myself to do something today. I have horrible restless legs and just feel drained. I also feel queasy and cut my food shopping trip short yesterday because I thought I was going to throw up.
I know I need to go to the doctors because the period thing isn't normal but do you think I'm probably hitting menopause? Should I say this to the doctor? I don't actually know what to say.
